NCT03082989

Brief Summary

Italy is the European country with the minor penetration of FFR as compared to the number of percutaneous coronary intervention. Accordingly, the Società Italiana di Cardiologia Invasiva (SICI-GISE) conceived and promoted a prospective nationwide study to describe the patterns of the use of FFR in an unselected real-world population and to to assess the reasons, on clinical decision making, driving operators in the use or not of the FFR.
