Long-term Patient Prognostication by Coronary Flow Reserve and Index of Microcirculatory Resistance: International Registry of Comprehensive Physiologic Assessment.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Recent guideline recommends evaluation using of coronary flow reserve (CFR) and index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) in patients with functionally insignificant stenosis. We evaluated clinical implications of CFR and IMR in patients with high fractional flow reserve (FFR) and deferred revascularization. METHODS:A total of 867 patients (1,152 vessels) consigned to deferred revascularization who underwent comprehensive physiologic assessments were enrolled. Patients with high FFR (>0.80) were categorized by CFR (?2) and IMR (?23 U). Clinical outcome was assessed by patient-oriented composite outcome (POCO), a composite of any death, myocardial infarction (MI), and revascularization at 5 years. RESULTS:Patients with low CFR (?2) showed significantly greater risk of POCO than those with high CFR (>2) in both high-FFR (p=0.024) and low-FFR (p=0.034) groups. In patients with high FFR, those with low CFR and high IMR (overt microvascular disease) displayed the greatest risk of POCO overall (p=0.015), surpassing those with high CFR and low IMR (HR, 2.873; 95% CI, 1.476-5.594; p=0.002) and showing significantly greater risk of cardiac death or MI (HR, 5.662; 95% CI, 1.984-16.154; p=0.001). Overt microvascular disease was independently associated with POCO in the high-FFR population (HR, 2.282; 95% CI, 1.176-4.429; p=0.015). CONCLUSION:Among patients with deferred revascularization, those with low CFR showed significantly greater risk of POCO than those with high CFR, regardless of FFR. In patients with high FFR, those with overt microvascular disease showed significantly greater risk of POCO and cardiac death or MI at 5-year, compared with the others.

Project description:BackgroundThe pulmonary microcirculation is the chief regulatory site for resistance in the pulmonary circuit. Despite pulmonary microvascular dysfunction being implicated in the pathogenesis of several pulmonary vascular conditions, there are currently no techniques for the specific assessment of pulmonary microvascular integrity in humans. Peak hyperemic flow assessment using thermodilution-derived mean transit-time (T(mn)) facilitate accurate coronary microcirculatory evaluation, but remain unvalidated in the lung circulation. Using a high primate model, we aimed to explore the use of T(mn) as a surrogate of pulmonary blood flow for the purpose of measuring the novel indices Pulmonary Flow Reserve [PFR = (maximum hyperemic)/(basal flow)] and Pulmonary Index of Microcirculatory Resistance [PIMR = (maximum hyperemic distal pulmonary artery pressure)x(maximum hyperemic T(mn))]. Ultimately, we aimed to investigate the effect of progressive pulmonary microvascular obstruction on PFR and PIMR.Methods and resultsTemperature- and pressure-sensor guidewires (TPSG) were placed in segmental pulmonary arteries (SPA) of 13 baboons and intravascular temperature measured. T(mn) and hemodynamics were recorded at rest and following intra-SPA administration of the vasodilator agents adenosine (10-400 microg/kg/min) and papaverine (3-24 mg). Temperature did not vary with intra-SPA sensor position (0.010+/-0.009 v 0.010+/-0.009 degrees C; distal v proximal; p = 0.1), supporting T(mn) use in lung for the purpose of hemodynamic indices derivation. Adenosine (to 200 microg/kg/min) & papaverine (to 24 mg) induced dose-dependent flow augmentations (40+/-7% & 35+/-13% T(mn) reductions v baseline, respectively; p<0.0001). PFR and PIMR were then calculated before and after progressive administration of ceramic microspheres into the SPA. Cumulative microsphere doses progressively reduced PFR (1.41+/-0.06, 1.26+/-0.19, 1.17+/-0.07 & 1.01+/-0.03; for 0, 10(4), 10(5) & 10(6) microspheres; p = 0.009) and increased PIMR (5.7+/-0.6, 6.3+/-1.0, 6.8+/-0.6 & 7.6+/-0.6 mmHg.sec; p = 0.0048).ConclusionsThermodilution-derived mean transit time can be accurately and reproducibly measured in the pulmonary circulation using TPSG. Mean transit time-derived PFR and PIMR can be assessed using a TPSG and adenosine or papaverine as hyperemic agents. These novel indices detect progressive pulmonary microvascular obstruction and thus have with a potential role for pulmonary microcirculatory assessment in humans.

Project description:Aims:Coronary flow reserve (CFR) is an integrated measure of the entire coronary vasculature, and is a powerful prognostic marker in coronary artery disease (CAD). The extent to which coronary revascularization can improve CFR is unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) on CFR in patients with stable CAD. Methods and results:In a prospective, multicentre observational study, CFR was measured by 15O-water positron emission tomography as the ratio of stress to rest myocardial blood flow at baseline and 6?months after optimal medical therapy (OMT) alone, PCI, or CABG. Changes in the SYNTAX and Leaman scores were angiographically evaluated as indicators of completeness of revascularization. Follow-up was completed by 75 (25 OMT alone, 28 PCI, and 22 CABG) out of 82 patients. The median SYNTAX and Leaman scores, and baseline CFR were 14.5 [interquartile range (IQR): 8-24.5], 5.5 (IQR: 2.5-12.5), and 1.94 (IQR: 1.67-2.66), respectively. Baseline CFR was negatively correlated with the SYNTAX (??=?-0.40, P?<?0.001) and Leaman scores (??=?-0.33, P?=?0.004). Overall, only CABG was associated with a significant increase in CFR [1.67 (IQR: 1.14-1.96) vs. 1.98 (IQR: 1.60-2.39), P?<?0.001]. Among patients with CFR <2.0 (n?=?41), CFR significantly increased in the PCI [1.70 (IQR: 1.42-1.79) vs. 2.21 (IQR: 1.78-2.49), P?=?0.002, P?<?0.001 for interaction between time and CFR] and CABG groups [1.28 (IQR: 1.13-1.80) vs. 1.86 (IQR: 1.57-2.22), P?<?0.001]. The reduction in SYNTAX or Leaman scores after PCI or CABG was independently associated with the percent increase in CFR after adjusting for baseline characteristics (P?=?0.012 and P?=?0.011, respectively). Conclusion:Coronary revascularization ameliorated reduced CFR in patients with obstructive CAD. The degree of improvement in angiographic CAD burden by revascularization was correlated with magnitude of improvement in CFR.
