Diagnostic Performance of On-site Automatic Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography-derived Fractional Flow Reserve

Completed
Conditions
Coronary Artery Disease
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: CT-FFR
Registration Number
NCT06153927
Lead Sponsor
Seoul National University Hospital
Brief Summary

The current study evaluated the diagnostic performance for myocardial ischemia of on-site automatic CCTA-derived FFR (CT-FFR) using a commercially available workstation as compared with invasive FFR as a reference. The diagnostic performance of CT-FFR was compared to that of CCTA diameter stenosis.

Detailed Description

This is a retrospective, multicenter, comparative, investigator-initiated study to evaluate the diagnostic performance of CT-FFR from routinely acquired CCTA data using the software HeartMedi+ 1.0 (AI Medic, Korea) to detect hemodynamically significant CAD. Patients who underwent CCTA within 90 days before invasive coronary angiography and FFR measurement will be screened in each participating center. After that, invasive coronary angiography, FFR data, and CCTA data will be anonymized and transferred to the independent core laboratories and analyzed in a blind fashion.

The presence of ischemia was defined as FFR ≤0.80. Anatomical obstructive stenosis was defined as diameter stenosis on CCTA ≥50%, and the diagnostic performance of CT-FFR and CCTA stenosis for ischemia was compared.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Diagnostic accuracy of CT-FFRAt the time of test

Diagnostic accuracy of CT-FFR to detect hemodynamically significant CAD evaluated with an invasive FFR

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Agreement between CT-FFR and FFRAt the time of test

Bland-Altman analysis was used to demonstrate the agreement between CT-FFR and FFR.

Comparison of diagnostic performance of CT-FFR to that of CCTA stenosisAt the time of test

Diagnostic performance to predict hemodynamically significant CAD included diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value.

A comparison of diagnostic performance was performed using McNemar's test or weight generalized score statistic as appropriate.

Spearman's correlation coefficient of CT-FFR with FFRAt the time of test

Spearman's correlation coefficient of CT-FFR with FFR

Comparison of discriminant ability of CT-FFR to that of CCTA stenosisAt the time of test

Discriminant ability to predict hemodynamically significant CAD was assessed by the area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC).

The AUCs were compared by Delong's test
