3 Objectives Review 2009 Appropriateness guidelines and updates in 2016 Review limitations of angiography and solutions Review functional PCI with cases Review multivessel intervention v. surgery Review data on complete revascularization Review new stents and bioabsorbable scaffold

5 2009 Appropriateness Criteria

6 $2,159 for a barbecue at Midei s house that included a whole smoked pig and other fixings. attorney represents 200 (patients) The cases will be tried one by one. procedure has left him chained to medication and at risk of future blockage. but concealed from him that his coronary arteries did not have the requisite degree of stenosis to made the procedure medically necessary.

7 Banner Heart Initiatives 100% review of all PCI Initially cases per month Last review 3/233 cases, only 1/233 could not be justified as appropriate after physician review Appropriate utilization of supplies Right device for right patient Safe Procedure Decrease unnecessary opening of product

8 2009 AUC Problems Based on 1st generation stent data Controversial data on left main intervention Nomenclature pejorative Appropriate, Uncertain, Inappropriate Most cardiologists do not report degree of ischemia (mild, moderate, severe) Data on CTO intervention limited

9 2016 Update Nomenclature: Usually appropriate, may be appropriate, rarely appropriate ICNAEL requirement for degree of ischemia on stress testing Syntax trial results available CTO intervention evolved Functional PCI expanded

10 A good day in our lab When your angiogram matches your stress test

11 Functional PCI The right treatment for each patient Consistent with Appropriate Use Overcoming the limitations of angiography Overcoming discordant stress testing Rethinking surgical revascularization

28 Using Pressure to Get Flow Coronary pressure is simple to measure Flow velocity is more challenging Fundamental Equation for relating Pressure and Flow: P = Q x R Pressure = Flow x Resistance or P Q x R Change in Pressure = Change in Flow x Constant Resistance When Resistance is Constant, changes in Pressure are proportional to changes in Flow

29 FAME II Trial Results FFR-guided PCI with drug-eluting stents plus the best available medical therapy, resulted in significantly improved clinical outcomes. > pts. OMT 3.0% p=< ,220 pts.
