AI Article Synopsis
- Coronary physiologic assessment measures key factors like pressure and flow in the heart to guide treatment strategies for patients with coronary artery disease.
- A wealth of research supports the importance of these assessments, which have influenced major clinical practice guidelines.
- This document, the first part of a larger consensus, offers practical recommendations for healthcare professionals in the Asia-Pacific region and discusses both traditional and advanced imaging methods for evaluating coronary physiology.
Article Abstract
Coronary physiologic assessment is performed to measure coronary pressure, flow, and resistance or their surrogates to enable the selection of appropriate management strategy and its optimization for patients with coronary artery disease. The value of physiologic assessment is supported by a large body of evidence that has led to major recommendations in clinical practice guidelines. This expert consensus document aims to convey practical and balanced recommendations and future perspectives for coronary physiologic assessment for physicians and patients in the Asia-Pacific region based on updated information in the field that including both wire- and image-based physiologic assessment. This is Part 1 of the whole consensus document, which describes the general concept of coronary physiology, as well as practical information on the clinical application of physiologic indices and novel image-based physiologic assessment.
