Potential conflicts of interest Speaker's name: Barry Hennigan ☑Speaker for Volcano Corp today
Patient MW • 65 year old man • Presented July 2013 • CCS2 angina • CABG Feb 1st 2011 • LIMA to LAD Heavily calcified proximal lesion (failed PCI) • SVG to OM- (poor surgical target noted intra-op)
Hx continued • T2DM • Obesity BMI 39 • HTN • Hyperlipidemia • Echo - mild Ant HK with good LV fx
July 2013 LAO RCA • RAO RCA
July 2013 • LAO Cranial LIMA to LAD RCA Caudal LIMA to LAD
Angiogram July 2013 • LAO Caudal LCX LAO Cranial LCX
Angiogram July 2013 Summary • Heavily calcified proximal LCX • Occluded SVG to OM • Patent LIMA to LAD • Patent native RCA • Medical therapy advised
Clinical Course Nov 13-March 14 • Ongoing exertional chest pain • Interfering with ability to run business • On oral nitrate, ca++ channel blocker and BB • Keen for intervention
? Evidence of Ischemia • DSE-suboptimal image quality due to BMI • Daycase FFR +/- PCI to LCX
March 2014 RAO Caudal • PA Caudal
Dilemma • Normal FFR • Abnormal CFR • Ongoing symptoms • Single probable ischemic territory • ? Optimal treatment
PCI • Predilated with a 3.0 sprinter to 18 atm • Stented with a 4.0 by 18mm biomatrix to 14 atm • Post dilated 4.0 NC
Clinical Progress • Painfree • Back running business • Walking 1 mile without symptoms • Exertional SOB on hills only • Actively losing weight • Completed further cardiac rehab course
Case Summary • Discordant FFR/CFR results • ?causes – increased microvascular resistance • Convincing clinical scenario for ischemia • Single identifiable culprit territory • Excellent improvement in flow post intervention
Relationship between FFR CFR Johnson et al. J Am Coll Cardiol Img. 2012;5(2):193-202
Reasons for Discordant FFRwhere FFR>0.75 but CFR<2 • Diffuse microvascular disease • Previous infarcted territory • Distal stenosis
Influencing Factors on CFR - Preload - Afterload • Contractility • Hypertension • Diabetes mellitus • Cardiomyopathy • Age - LVH • Recent MI
Thermodilution Versus Doppler • Tmnhyperaemic/Tmnrestratio • Thermodilutionmay overestimate CFR • Mean values • IMR calculation rather than HMR • Good correlation with doppler • Uses APVH/APVB • In good hands >90% success in achieving good doppler signal • Learning curve European Heart Journal (2004) 25, 219–223
Thermodilution vs Doppler ctd European Heart Journal (2004) 25, 219–223
TIPS • Anterograde vs retrograde • Positioning- use audio cues • Use sidebranches • Know your console • Wire handling- avoid trauma to tip • Experienced Operator • Don’t give up
Conclusion • Would we recommend this approach routinely? • No • Flow does add useful information • New wire technologies enable easier + rapid complementary dataset acquisition that improve decision making • Supplements pressure data • Should be interpreted carefully with attention to clinical scenario • Further validation in RCTs awaited
