DISTAL DICROTIC NOTCH IN THE CORONARY ARTERY PRESSURE WAVEFORM PREDICTS SIGNIFICANT STENOSIS, AS VALIDATED BY FRACTIONAL FLOW RESERVE, BUT PERFORMS INFERIORLY AS COMPARED TO PD/PA

DISTAL DICROTIC NOTCH IN THE CORONARY ARTERY PRESSURE WAVEFORM PREDICTS SIGNIFICANT STENOSIS, AS VALIDATED BY FRACTIONAL FLOW RESERVE, BUT PERFORMS INFERIORLY AS COMPARED TO PD/PA

Background A single small prior study (n=97) has suggested that absence of distal dicrotic notch (DDN) in the coronary artery, distal to an intermediate stenosis, may indicate a significant stenosis, proven by an abnormal fractional flow reserve (FFR).
