Official title
PrEssure wiRe Compared to Microcatheter-based Sensing Technology For the Evaluation of cORonary Fractional Flow Reserve Measurements
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The model by which physicians measure the lack of blood flow in the vessels that supply blood to the heart muscle is called Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR). FFR is the measurement of the pressure across the vessels that supply blood to the heart. These are known as the coronary arteries. This study involves comparing two FFR wires, the St. Jude Medical Pressure Wire (PW) and the ACIST Navvus Microcatheter (MC) to check the accuracy of the devices. FFR allows real-time estimation of the effects of a narrowed vessel, whereas standard angiography can underestimate or overestimate narrowing, because it only visualizes contrast (the different areas of color) inside a vessel.
