1 IVUS/OCT = Anatomy vs FFR = Ischemia Functional Assessment of Coronary Artery Stenosis Severity Significance Utility of FFR, IVUS and OCT Morton J. Kern MD, MSCAI, FACC, FAHA Chief of Medicine, VA Long Beach Health Care System Professor of Medicine University California Irvine Orange, California Disclosure: Morton J. Kern, MD Within the past 12 months, the presenter or their spouse/partner have had a financial interest/arrangement or affiliation with the organization listed below. Company Name St. Jude Medical Inc. Volcano Therapeutics Merit Medical Inc. Acist Medical Inc. Opsens Relationship Speakers Bureau Speakers Bureau Consultant Consultant Consultant Answering the Questions about Intracoronary Imaging and Physiology Questions Tools Is this lesion flow limiting? (complex anatomy assessment too) Which is the culprit lesion? Is the stent optimally implanted? Is there another vulnerable plaque? Is this lesion associated with emoblization? What is the mechanism of in-stent restenosis FFR, ifr OCT, FFR, ifr (?) IVUS/OCT OCT/NIRS NIRS/OCT IVUS/OCT The Pathology Pressure derived Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) measures the ischemic potential of a stenosis Obstructive, Thrombotic? Think Stable Angina Proximal Pressure (Pa) Distal Pressure (Pd) Non obstructive, Thrombotic? Think ACS STEMI, NSTEMI, UA Measures arterial pressure on both sides of an arterial blockage Fraction of normal flow = Pd/Pa at maximal flow (hyperemia)
