To treat or not to treat?
Is this lesion producing Ischemia?Is PCI appropriate for situation?

The rationale for using coronary physiology is the inability of the 2D images of angiogram to accurately depict the 3D lesion characteristics limiting flow.

Uncertainty in Critical Angiographic Based Decisions
• Intermediate Stenosis, no evidence ischemia
• Left Main Stenosis
• Multivessel CAD
• Serial Lesions
• Ostial and Branch Disease

Aortic, Pa
Coronary, Pd
FFR= Pd/Pa = 65/90 = 0.72
Measurement of FFR correlates to the results of stress testing and ischemia out of the lab. FFR is a ‘stress test’ for that artery in the lab at time of cath.
AdenosineResting pressures

5 Steps to Accurate FFR
1.Zero guide and wire on table to atmosphere2.Insert wire into guide and match wire/guide pressures in aorta3.Cross lesion 2-3cm distal4.Turn on IV adenosine 2-4 minutes5.Confirm accuracy with pressure pull back

Q: Why can we not use IVUS/OCT for functional assessment?A: A single cross-sectional area does not mean the same thing everywhere.
![Page 14: Coronary stenting: the appropriate use of FFR](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081507/56815931550346895dc665c1/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Single anatomic parameters do not predict FFR with confidence
IVUS v FFR

When can you NOT rely on FFR?
False Negative FFR 1. Pressure Damping2. No hyperemia - wrong drug, not mixed
not delivered (IV?) or side holes3.STEMI, culprit. STEMI – non-culprit OK4. LM + LAD when FFRepicardial <0.65. Serial lesion FFR of individual lesion (only gradient
useful)False Positive FFR1. Technical errors (Pressure signal drift,zero, etc.)
