Listen to Prof. Nick Curzen as he discusses with Dr. Rasha Al-Lamee about the role of physiologyin guiding Complex PCI.
Key discussion points include:
- How to treat complex patients and achieve successful revascularization
- Avoid leaving residual ischemia and improve long-term outcomes;
- Discuss recent trials: DEFINE PCI one-year data, and new coming studies such as DEFINE GPS.
Map iFR values directly onto the angiogram, so you can see precisely which parts of a vessel are causing ischemia
