Abstract

This study investigated the diagnostic performance of instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) in patients with aortic valve stenosis (AS). The iFR was introduced as a new, nonpharmacologic stress index of coronary stenosis severity. However, the diagnostic performance of iFR has not been sufficiently explored in patients with severe AS. We analyzed 95 consecutive patients with AS (57 women) demonstrating intermediate coronary artery stenosis (116 vessels), and compared the iFR values with fractional flow reserve (FFR) values and with adenosine-stress myocardial perfusion imaging as indicators of myocardial ischemia. The median value and interquartile range (first quartile [Q1], third quartile [Q3]) of the iFR was 0.86 (Q1 to Q3 range, 0.76 to 0.93), and that of the FFR was 0.84 (Q1 to Q3 range, 0.76 to 0.91). The iFR values correlated well with the FFR values (R = 0.854; p < 0.0001). A receiver operating characteristic analysis demonstrated an optimal cutoff of 0.82 for the iFR to indicate an FFR ≤0.75, with an area under the curve of 0.92. The optimal iFR cutoff value indicating myocardial ischemia on perfusion scintigraphy was 0.82 (area under the curve: 0.84). In patients with severe AS, a good correlation exists between iFR and...Continue Reading

Cardiomyopathy

Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle, that can lead to muscular or electrical dysfunction of the heart. It is often an irreversible disease that is associated with a poor prognosis. There are different causes and classifications of cardiomyopathies. Here are the latest discoveries pertaining to this disease.
