Clinical and economic benefits of fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided revascularisation have been established and the strategy is a class-1 recommendation in current guidelines.1,2 FFR values both before and after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have been reported to provide prognostic information.3–5
Originally, FFR was used as a surrogate measure of impaired coronary flow, and…

Myocardial blood flow (MBF) must respond to changes in metabolic conditions and oxygen requests to meet the needs of myocytes, and autoregulation plays a mayor role in the control of coronary circulation.1–3 It has been demonstrated that, as a coronary artery is progressively narrowed, resting flow does not change at first, but maximal flow (achieved by injecting a vasodilator) decreases…

Adverse clinical consequences associated with conventional coronary artery bypass surgery (CCAB) have largely been attributed to cardiopulmonary bypass circuit (CPB), hypothermic cardiac arrest, aortic cannulation and cross-clamping. Consequently, there has been a growing interest in safer alternatives to CCAB including off-pump beating heart bypass surgery (OPCAB). Since the introduction of…

Up to 50% of patients who undergo elective coronary angiography for stable chest pain symptoms that are mainly related to exercise and typical enough to suggest the presence of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) are found to have normal or near-normal coronary arteries.1 The mechanisms responsible for angina chest pain in these patients are heterogeneous; accordingly, their identification…
