Factors associated with coronary angiography performed within 6 months of randomization to the conservative strategy in the ISCHEMIA Trial

BACKGROUND: ISCHEMIA (International Study of Comparative Health Effectiveness With Medical and Invasive Approaches) did not find an overall reduction in cardiovascular events with an initial invasive versus conservative management strategy in chronic coronary disease; however, there were conservative str...

Comparison of a known invasive physiological method used for the evaluation of ischemia and a newer noninvasive physiological method for the same propose

J. Transcatheter Interv; 31 (supl.1), 2023
INTRODUCTION: FFR is the most validated method for evaluating the physiological significance of non-occlusive coronary stenosis. FFR is the ratio of distal pressure (Pd) and aortic pressure (Pa) determined during adenosine induced hyperemia. Nonhyperemic pressure ratios were later introduced and validate...
