Exclusion criteria: • Contraindication to adenosine administration • Previous Coronary Artery Bypass surgery with patent grafts to the interrogated vessel

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Sensitivity and specificity of quantitative flow Ratio (QFR) according to instantaneous wave-free Ratio (iFR): Proportion of patients with positive/negative QFR and positive/negative iFR resp. (true positives/negatives) Diagnostic performance of QFR in comparison to iFR reported as positive and negative likelihood ratio Diagnostic grey zone calculation. QFR limits for achieving 95% sensitivity and specificity in comparison to iFR

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Comparison of quantitative flow Ratio (QFR) and instantaneous wave-free Ratio (iFR) with fractional flow Ratio (FFR) - Sensitivity and specificity of QFR according to FFR: Proportion of patients with positive/negative QFR and positive/negative FFR resp. (true positives/negatives) - Diagnostic performance of QFR in comparison to FFR reported as positive and negative likelihood ratio - Diagnostic grey zone calculation. QFR limits for achieving 95% sensitivity and specificity in comparison to FFR - Sensitivity and specificity of iFR according to FFR: Proportion of patients with positive/negative iFR and positive/negative FFR resp. (true positives/negatives) - Diagnostic performance of iFR in comparison to FFR reported as positive and negative likelihood ratio - Diagnostic grey zone calculation. iFR limits for achieving 95% sensitivity and specificity in comparison to FFR • Cost analysis - Cost savings of removing secondary investigations by using QFR - Cost savings of removing the need for Adenosine by using iFR. - Evaluation of costs by excess/reduced need for stenting when iFR and FFR disagree • Lesion characteristics - Influence of 3D QCA characteristics (minimum luminal area (MLA), percentage area stenosis, lesion length, minimum luminal diameter (MLD) and percentage diameter stenosis) in the prediction of iFR -FFR disagreement. - Influence of lesion location in the prediction of iFR -FFR disagreement. - Influence of p20-DAC2 score in proximal and mid-LAD stenosis in the prediction of iFR -FFR disagreement.
