TIPS AND TRICKS FOR THE CORONARY FLOW RESERVE MEASUREMENT

Petr Kala
Interní kardiologická klinika FN a LF MU v Brně

Coronary flow reserve (CFR) is a safe, relatively easy and the only invasive method for assessment of the haemodynamic status of the whole coronary artery. Due its numerous limitations its use is focused on research (syndrome X, left ventricular improvement after acute myocardial infarction, etc.) and the only way to increase the number of CFR investigations is the simultaneously use of combined wires together with FFR.

Keywords: Key words: coronary flow reserve, coronary physiology, hemodynamic assessment.
