TCT-644 Clinical Outcomes of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) Patients With Deferred PCI Based on Non-ischemic Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) Values

Background Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is the gold standard for determining hemodynamic significance and thus the ischemic potential of an intermediate grade coronary stenosis (ICS). Conclusion ACS patients with deferral of PCI, based on non-ischemic FFR values, had worse clinical outcomes compare...

Description
Summary:	Background Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is the gold standard for determining hemodynamic significance and thus the ischemic potential of an intermediate grade coronary stenosis (ICS). Conclusion ACS patients with deferral of PCI, based on non-ischemic FFR values, had worse clinical outcomes compared to those with stable ischemic heart disease.
