5-year follow up of DEFINE-FLAIR (iFR vs FFR-guided revascularisation) presented by Javier Escaned #EuroPCR2023 ➡️ MACE higher in iFR arm (HR 1.18; CI 0.99 - 1.41, p=0.07) ➡️ All-cause death 3% higher in iFR arm (HR 1.51; CI 1.22 - 2.90) ➡️ Difference driven by CV death

Evandro Martins F. MD Tsutomu Fujita MD Mauro Carlino Neisser M Dr. Bill Lombardi Alex Truesdell Kambis Mashayekhi Stefan Harb Stéphane Rinfret, MD SM Lorenzo Azzalini Contrast modulation = modulation of the vessel architecture by contrast. HDR is an INTRA plaque phenomenon. Contrast guided STAR is an EXTRA plaque phenomenon. A gentle micro (<0.5 ml) injection keeps contrast intra plaque - thus favoring HDR.
