PREVALENCE OF ERRORS IN FRACTIONAL FLOW RESERVE MEASUREMENT IN A HIGH VOLUME TERTIARY CARE CENTER

PREVALENCE OF ERRORS IN FRACTIONAL FLOW RESERVE MEASUREMENT IN A HIGH VOLUME TERTIARY CARE CENTER

Conclusion: Although the prevalence of errors in FFR measurement is low (1.6%) in a busy cardiac catheterization laboratory, the prevalence of clinically insignificant errors is high (n=207, 22%), which hampers the ability to perform adequate research and quality control, both of which are important...
