Background: Several trials have shown the prognostic benefit of fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided complete revascularization in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and multivessel disease compared to an angiography-guided strategy. With the increasing number of elderly ACS patients, evidence-based therapeutical concepts for this high-risk group need to be developed. The need for pressure-wire advancement and induction of hyperemia, along with aprolonged procedural time, are among the reasons for underusage of established functional methods such as FFR. Quantitative flow ratio (QFR) represents an angiography-based tool for fast functional evaluation of coronary stenoses and may therefore serve as attractive alternative to FFR in elderly patients with ACS.
Non-culprit vessel QFR values of Group 2 were lower (0.96 [0.90-0.99] as compared to the ones of Group 1 (0.97 [0.92-0.99], p<0.05), with corresponding lower residual minimum lumen diameters (1.60 [1.30-2.00] mm vs. 1.70 [1.38-2.10] mm, p<0.05). Post-PCI culprit-vessel QFR was similar among groups (0.96 [0.91-0.99] vs. 0.97 [0.93-0.99], p=0.28). Rates of MACE did not differ between groups (13.0% vs.11.6%, p=0.10). An optimal cut-off value of 0.89 for post-PCI culprit vesseland 0.85 for non-culprit vessel QFR, emerged as independent predictor of MACE in both groups. QFR values were strongly associated with outcomes (Group 1: adjusted OR 3.50, 95% CI 1.87-6.56, p<0.001 for post-PCI culprit artery QFR and adjusted OR 4.03, 95% CI 2.18-7.44, p<0.001 for non-culprit artery QFR; Group 2: adjusted OR 4.94, 95% CI 1.43-17.02, p<0.001 for post-PCI culprit artery QFR; and adjusted OR 7.81, 95% CI 2.11-28.97, p<0.001, for non-culprit artery QFR).
