Clinical Relevance of Fractional Flow Reserve-Guided Percutaneous Coronary Interevention According to Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction and Multivessel Disease.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided or angiography-guided complete revascularization has not been evaluated in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with multivessel disease and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). This study sought to evaluate the impact of FFR-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for patients with AMI with multivessel disease according to left ventricular systolic function.

Methods

We performed a prespecified analysis of the FRAME-AMI (Fractional Flow Reserve Versus Angiography-Guided Strategy in Acute Myocardial Infarction With Multivessel Disease) trial, which randomly allocated 562 patients to undergo either FFR-guided PCI (FFR ≤0.80) or angiography-guided PCI (diameter stenosis >50%) for non-infarct-relate
