FFR-DS: Comparison of Devices Evaluating Fractional Flow Reserve in Coronary Arteries
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The aim of the study is to compare different devices available to measure fractional flow reserve (FFR) in coronary arteries.

Detailed Description
The decision to perform a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is usually based on angiographic results alone. Angiography can be used for the visual evaluation of the inner diameter of a vessel. Visual evaluation is limited by inter-individual variability.
Fractional flow reserve provides a functional evaluation, by measuring the pressure decline caused by a vessel narrowing.
The original studies validating the use of FFR were conducted with only one device (St-Jude MedicalĀ®). Recently, new FFR devices have been commercialized but have not yet been compared.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Simultaneous FFR measure SJM and ACIST [Immediately]
Correlation between simultaneous measures with St Jude medical FFR device and ACIST device
- Simultaneous FFR measure Boston Scientific and ACIST [Immediately]
Correlation between simultaneous measures with BOSTON Scientific FFR device and ACIST device
- Simultaneous FFR measure Boston Scientific and SJM [Immediately]
Correlation between simultaneous measures with BOSTON Scientific FFR device and St Jude Medical device
Secondary Outcome Measures
- FFR SJM or Boston alone versus simultaneous with ACIST [Immediately]
Correlation between SJM and Boston Scientific FFR measurements alone and simultaneous measure with ACIST
- Clinical concordance [Immediately]
Concordance between FFR values >0.80 or <=0.80
- Drift of the signal [immediately]
variation between the initial measure in the aorta (equalization) and final measure
