Changes in Surgical Revascularization Strategy After Fractional Flow Reserve
Fournier, S; Toth, G; De Bruyne, B; Kala, P; Ribichini, F; Casselman, F; Ramos, R; Piroth, Z; Piccoli, A; Penicka, M; Mates, M; Nemec, P; Van Praet, FAims: In the randomized GRAFFITI trial, surgeons drew their strategy based on coronary angiography. When patients were randomized to fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guidance, surgeons were informed of the FFR values and asked to redraw their strategy. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes induced by FFR knowledge. Methods and results: The intended and performed strategy (before and after FFR) were ...

Toth, GG; De Bruyne, B; Kala, P; Ribichini, FL; Casselman, F; Ramos, R; Piroth, Z; Fournier, S; Van Mieghem, C; Penicka, M; Mates, M; Van Praet, FClinical benefit of invasive functionally guided revascularization has been mostly investigated and proven for percutaneous coronary intervention. It has never been prospectively evaluated whether a systematic fractional flow reserve (FFR) assessment is also beneficial in guiding coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). The objective of the GRAft patency after FFR-guided versus angiography-guIded CABG (GRAF...
