- Abstract
Objectives The goal of this study was to assess the real-world clinical utility of fractional flow reserve (FFR) derived from coronary computed tomography angiography (FFR CT ) for decision-making in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Background FFR CT has shown promising results in identifying lesion-specific ischemia. The real-world feasibility and influence on the diagnostic work-up of FFR CT testing in patients suspected of having CAD are unknown. Methods We reviewed the complete diagnostic work-up of nonemergent patients referred for coronary computed tomography angiography over a 12-month period at Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark, including all patients with new-onset chest pain with no known CAD and with intermediate-range coronary lesions (lumen reduction, 30% to 70%) referred for FFR CT . The study evaluated the consequences on downstream diagnostic testing, the agreement between FFR CT and invasively measured FFR or instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR), and the short-term clinical outcome after FFR CT testing. Results Among 1,248 patients referred for computed tomography angiography, 189 patients (mean age 59 years; 59% male) were referred for FFR CT , with a conclusive FFR CT result obtained in 185 (98%). FFR CT was ≤0.80 in 31% of patients and 10% of vessels. After FFR CT testing, invasive angiography was performed in 29%, with FFR measured in 19% and iFR in 1% of patients (with a tendency toward declining FFR-iFR guidance during the study period). FFR CT ≤0.80 correctly classified 73% (27 of 37) of patients and 70% (37 of 53) of vessels using FFR ≤0.80 or iFR ≤0.90 as the reference standard. In patients with FFR CT >0.80 being deferred from invasive coronary angiography, no adverse cardiac events occurred during a median follow-up period of 12 (range 6 to 18 months) months. Conclusions FFR CT testing is feasible in real-world symptomatic patients with intermediate-range stenosis determined by coronary computed tomography angiography. Implementation of FFR CT for clinical decision-making may influence the downstream diagnostic workflow of patients. Patients with an FFR CT value >0.80 being deferred from invasive coronary angiography have a favorable short-term prognosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Clinical outcomes following coronary computed tomography-derived fractional flow reserve (FFRCT) testing in clinical practice are unknown.Objectives: This study sought to assess real-world clinical outcomes following a diagnostic strategy including first-line coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) with selective FFRCT testing.Methods: The study reviewed the results of 3,674 consecutive patients with stable chest pain evaluated with CTA and FFRCT testing to guide downstream management in patients with intermediate stenosis (30% to 70%). The composite endpoint (all-cause death, myocardial infarction, hospitalization for unstable angina, and unplanned revascularization) was determined in 4 patient groups: 1) CTA stenosis <30%, optimal medical treatment (OMT), and no additional testing; 2) FFRCT >0.80, OMT, no additional testing; 3) FFRCT ≤0.80, OMT, no additional testing; and 4) FFRCT ≤0.80, OMT, and referral to invasive coronary angiography. Patients were followed for a median of 24 (range 8 to 41) months.Results: FFRCT was available in 677 patients, and the test result was negative (>0.80) in 410 (61%) patients. In 75% of the patients with FFRCT >0.80, maximum coronary stenosis was ≥50%. The cumulative incidence proportion (95% confidence interval [CI]) of the composite endpoint at the end of follow-up was comparable in groups 1 (2.8%; 95% CI: 1.4% to 4.9%) and 2 (3.9%; 95% CI: 2.0% to 6.9%) (p = 0.58) but was higher (when compared with group 1) in groups 3 (9.4%; p = 0.04) and 4 (6.6%; p = 0.08). Risk of myocardial infarction was lower in group 4 (1.3%) than in group 3 (8%; p < 0.001).Conclusions: In patients with intermediate-range coronary stenosis, FFRCT is effective in differentiating patients who do not require further diagnostic testing or intervention (FFRCT >0.80) from higher-risk patients (FFRCT ≤0.80) in whom further testing with invasive coronary angiography and possibly intervention may be needed. Further studies assessing the risk and optimal management strategy in patients undergoing first-line CTA with selective FFRCT testing are needed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Background: There are limited data on the incidence, clinical implications, and predisposing factors of transcatheter heart valve (THV) thrombosis following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).Objectives: The authors assessed the incidence, potential predictors, and clinical implications of THV thrombosis as determined by contrast-enhanced multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) after TAVR.Methods: Among 460 consecutive patients who underwent TAVR with the Edwards Sapien XT or Sapien 3 (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, California) THV, 405 (88%) underwent MDCT in addition to transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography 1 to 3 months post-TAVR. MDCT scans were evaluated for hypoattenuated leaflet thickening that indicated THV thrombosis.Results: MDCT verified THV thrombosis in 28 of 405 (7%) patients. A total of 23 patients had subclinical THV thrombosis, whereas 5 (18%) patients experienced clinically overt obstructive THV thrombosis. THV thrombosis risk did not differ among different generations of THVs (8% vs. 6%; p = 0.42). The risk of THV thrombosis in patients who did not receive warfarin was higher compared with patients who received warfarin (10.7% vs. 1.8%; risk ratio [RR]: 6.09; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.86 to 19.84). A larger THV was associated with an increased risk of THV thrombosis (p = 0.03). In multivariable analysis, a 29-mm THV (RR: 2.89; 95% CI: 1.44 to 5.80) and no post-TAVR warfarin treatment (RR: 5.46; 95% CI: 1.68 to 17.7) independently predicted THV thrombosis. Treatment with warfarin effectively reverted THV thrombosis and normalized THV function in 85% of patients as documented by follow-up transesophageal echocardiography and MDCT.Conclusions: Incidence of THV thrombosis in this large study was 7%. A larger THV size may predispose to THV thrombosis, whereas treatment with warfarin appears to have a protective effect. Although often subclinical, THV thrombosis may have important clinical implications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published
