Prognostic impact of fractional flow reserve measurements in patients with acute coronary syndromes: a subanalysis of the FLORIDA study.

ABSTRACT: Randomized trials suggest benefits for fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided vs. angiography-guided treatment strategies in well-defined and selected patient cohorts with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). The long-term prognostic value of FFR measurement in unselected all-comer ACS patients, however, remains unknown. This subanalysis of the Fractional FLOw Reserve In cardiovascular DiseAses (FLORIDA) study sought to investigate the long-term effects of FFR in the management of lesions in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). FLORIDA was an observational all-comer cohort study performed in Germany, that was population-based and unselected. Patients enrolled into the anonymized InGef Research Database presenting with ACS and undergoing coronary angiography between January 2014 and Decemb
