Summary
Low post-PCI quantitative flow ratio (QFR) is a significant predictor of vessel-oriented composite endpoints (VOCE) after percutaneous coronary intervention. This finding highlights QFR
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Interventional Cardiology
- Medical Imaging
Background:
- Accurate prediction of post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) vessel-oriented composite endpoints (VOCE) remains a clinical challenge.
- Quantitative flow ratio (QFR) has emerged as a promising non-invasive imaging biomarker.
- Existing indicators for predicting post-PCI VOCE are limited.
Conclusions:
- Post-PCI QFR demonstrates significant predictive value for vessel-oriented composite endpoints.
- Lower QFR values post-PCI are associated with an increased risk of adverse events.
- QFR can serve as a valuable tool for risk stratification in patients undergoing PCI.
