Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided optimization of suboptimal fractional flow reserve (FFR) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) results in a significant increase in both post-PCI FFR and minimal lumen and stent areas (MLA and MSA, respectively). However, the impact of clinical presentation with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) versus chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) on the efficacy of PCI optimization remains unknown.
This was a prespecified subgroup analysis of the FFR REACT trial comparing IVUS-guided PCI optimization versus no further treatment in 291 patients with a post-PCI FFR < 0.90. Post-PCI physiology and pre optimization IVUS findings were compared between patients presenting with NSTE-ACS versus CCS, as well as optimization strategy, final FFR and IVUS findings.
Out of 291 patients, 130 (44.7%) presented with NSTE-ACS. Median post-PCI FFR was similar in patients with NSTE-ACS and CCS (0.85 for both, p = 0.55). Pre optimization IVUS findings did not differ significantly between both groups and subsequent optimization strategy was comparable (p = 0.71). In both NSTE-ACS and CCS, optimization resulted in a significant increase (p < 0.01 for all) of similar magnitude in median FFR (0.02 vs. 0.03, p = 0.80), MLA (0.37 vs. 0.50 mm, p = 0.46) and MSA (0.29 vs. 0.32 mm, p = 0.61), respectively. The clinical impact of IVUS-guided optimization on 2-year target vessel failure showed no signs of heterogeneity based on clinical presentation (interaction p = 0.36).
In patients undergoing FFR-directed IVUS-guided optimization, post-PCI FFR, pre optimization IVUS findings and optimization strategy did not differ significantly between patients presenting with either NSTE-ACS or CCS, with comparable improvements in FFR, MLA and MSA.
在经皮冠状动脉介入治疗(PCI)后,血管内超声(IVUS)引导下对次优血流储备分数(FFR)进行优化,可使PCI术后的FFR以及最小管腔面积和支架面积(分别为MLA和MSA)显著增加。然而,非ST段抬高型急性冠状动脉综合征(NSTE-ACS)与慢性冠状动脉综合征(CCS)的临床表现对PCI优化疗效的影响尚不清楚。
这是一项对FFR REACT试验的预设亚组分析,该试验比较了291例PCI术后FFR<0.90的患者在IVUS引导下进行PCI优化与不进行进一步治疗的情况。比较了NSTE-ACS患者与CCS患者的PCI术后生理学和优化前IVUS检查结果,以及优化策略、最终FFR和IVUS检查结果。
在291例患者中,130例(44.7%)表现为NSTE-ACS。NSTE-ACS患者和CCS患者的PCI术后FFR中位数相似(均为0.85,p=0.55)。两组之间优化前的IVUS检查结果无显著差异,随后的优化策略具有可比性(p=0.71)。在NSTE-ACS和CCS患者中,优化均使FFR中位数(0.02对0.03,p=0.80)、MLA(0.37对0.50mm,p=0.46)和MSA(0.29对0.32mm,p=0.61)有相似幅度的显著增加(所有p<0.01)。基于临床表现,IVUS引导下优化对2年靶血管失败的临床影响未显示出异质性迹象(交互作用p=0.36)。
在接受FFR指导的IVUS引导下优化的患者中,NSTE-ACS患者和CCS患者的PCI术后FFR、优化前IVUS检查结果和优化策略无显著差异,FFR、MLA和MSA的改善相当。
