Prognostic impact of resting full-cycle ratio and diastolic non-hyperemic pressure ratios in patients with deferred revascularization.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Non-hyperemic pressure ratios (NHPRs) like resting full-cycle ratio (RFR), diastolic pressure ratio during entire diastole (dPR[entire]) and diastolic pressure ratio during wave-free period (dPR[WFP]) are increasingly used to guide revascularization. The effect of NHPRs on mid-term prognosis has not been well established.

Objective

We investigated the prognostic implications of NHRPs in patients whose revascularization was deferred based on fractional flow reserve (FFR) in a single-centre population.

Methods

NHPRs and FFR were calculated offline from pressure tracings by an independent core laboratory. Follow-up data were acquired through records of hospital visits or telephone interviews. The primary outcome was a vessel-oriented composite outcome (VOCO) (a composite of cardiac death, vessel-related myocardial infarction, and ischemia-driven revascularization) in deferred vessels at 2 years.

Results

316 patients with 377 deferred lesions were analysed. Discordance of NHPRs and FFR was found in 13.0-18.3% of lesions. The correlation coefficient between NHPRs was 0.99 (95% confidence interval 0.99-1.00). At 2 years, VOCO occurred in 19 lesions (5.0%). Estimated glomerular filtration rate < 30 mL/min/1.73 m² [hazard ratio (HR) 5.7, p = 0.002], previous myocardial infarction (HR 3.3, p = 0.018), diabetes (HR 2.7, p = 0.042), RFR ≤ 0.89 (HR 2.7, p = 0.041) and dPR[WFP] ≤ 0.89 (HR 2.7, p = 0.049) were associated with higher incidence of VOCO at 2 years in the univariable analysis. A non-significant trend was found for dPR[entire] (HR 1.9, p = 0.26).

Conclusion

A positive RFR or dPR[WFP] were associated with a worse prognosis in deferred lesions, suggesting that the use of NHPRs in addition to FFR may improve risk estimation.

Project description:Background Post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) fractional flow reserve ≥0.90 is an accepted marker of procedural success, and a cutoff of ≥0.95 has recently been proposed for post-PCI instantaneous wave-free ratio. However, stability of nonhyperemic pressure ratios (NHPRs) post-PCI is not well characterized, and transient reactive submaximal hyperemia post-PCI may affect their precision. We performed this study to assess stability and reproducibility of NHPRs post-PCI. Methods and Results Fifty-seven patients (age, 63.77±10.67 years; men, 71%) underwent hemodynamic assessment immediately post-PCI and then after a recovery period of 10, 20, and 30 minutes and repeated at 3 months. Manual offline analysis was performed to derive resting and hyperemic pressure indexes (Pd/Pa resting pressure gradient, mathematically derived instantaneous wave-free ratio, resting full cycle ratio, and fractional flow reserve) and microcirculatory resistances (basal microvascular resistance and index of microvascular resistance). Transient submaximal hyperemia occurring post-PCI was demonstrated by longer thermodilution time at 30 minutes compared with immediately post-PCI; mean difference of thermodilution time was 0.17 seconds (95% CI, 0.07-0.26 seconds; P=0.04). Basal microcirculatory resistance was also higher at 30 minutes than immediately post-PCI; mean difference of basal microvascular resistance was 10.89 mm Hg.s (95% CI, 2.25-19.52 mm Hg.s; P=0.04). Despite this, group analysis confirmed no significant differences in the values of resting whole cycle pressure ratios (Pd/Pa and resting full cycle ratio) as well as diastolic pressure ratios (diastolic pressure ratio and mathematically derived instantaneous wave-free ratio). Whole cardiac cycle NHPRs demonstrated the best overall stability post-PCI, and 1 in 5 repeated diastolic NHPRs crossed the clinical decision threshold. Conclusions Whole cycle NHPRs demonstrate better reproducibility and clinical precision post-PCI than diastolic NHPRs, possibly because of less perturbation from predominantly diastolic reactive hyperemia and left ventricular stunning.
