Safety, Feasibility, and Diagnostic Yield of Invasive Coronary Function Testing: Netherlands Registry of Invasive Coronary Vasomotor Function Testing.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Patients with angina and no obstructive coronary artery disease frequently have coronary vasomotor dysfunction as underlying pathophysiological mechanism, comprising epicardial spasm, microvascular spasm, and/or microcirculatory dysfunction. These endotypes can be diagnosed by invasive coronary function testing which has previously shown to be safe in tertiary and expert centers.

Objective

To determine the prevalence of vasomotor dysfunction in patients with angina and no obstructive coronary artery disease who were clinically referred for a coronary function test (CFT); and assess safety and feasibility of a CFT.

Design, setting, and participants

This quality improvement study was performed using the Netherlands Registry of Invasive Coronary Vasomotor Func
