heal.abstract | The development of pressure monitoring guide-wires has facilitated the measurements of coronary pressures distal to a stenosis. The ratio of the distal coronary and aortic pressures (P(d)/P(a)) measured during maximal hyperaemia is a useful index for diagnosis and monitoring the treatment of patients with coronary artery disease and for guiding percutaneous coronary intervention. However, the role of coronary pressure measurements in post- myocardial infarction (MI) patients is not well established. Coronary pressure measurements should be used with caution during the acute phase of MI due to serious micro-vascular impairment. The hyperaemic pressure P(d)/P(a) ratio can identify ischaemic myocardial territories in patients with recent MI. Theoretically, coronary pressure measurements may be of value in predicting myocardial recovery after revascularization in post-MI patients with a moderate stenosis of the infarct-related artery and without angiographically evident collaterals. | en |
