Prognostic value of global coronary flow reserve before and after elective percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with chronic coronary syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Impaired global coronary flow reserve (G-CFR), evaluated through phase-contrast cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance (PC-CMR), has been linked to worse outcomes in patients with cardiovascular disease. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of G-CFR improvement, as evaluated using PC-CMR imaging pre- and post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Methods

In this single-center study, 320 patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) who underwent pre- and post-PCI PC-CMR measurements were followed up to determine major adverse cardiac or cerebrovascular events (MACCE) predictors. MACCE was defined as a composite of cardiac death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, hospitalization due to heart failure, or ischemic stroke. The association between CMR
