A comparison of fractional flow reserve vs. coronary (heart) Angiography for coronary multivessel evaluation

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR)-guided Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is non-inferior to coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) in patients with multi-vessel Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). FFF-guided PCI might result in lower rates of death, heart attack, and the need for repeat revascularization as compared to what was seen after CABG surgery. There is also the possibility of a chance at a shorter recovery time with the minimally invasive FFR-guided PCI versus CABG surgery.
