Abbott Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction Algorithm
Catheter Engagement
(c)
- Flush thoroughly 1
- Coaxial guide engagement 1
- Ensure no damping1
(A)
Advance Wire
- Interrogate LAD unless there is a specific territory of interest 2
- Advance wire sensor 2/3 distally in vessel 3
- Administer GTN/NTG1
(T)
Transit Time at Rest
- Flush/purge pre-Tmn rest to clear any blood and contrast 3
- Room temperature saline 3
- Brisk 3 mL x 3 injections 3
- Address outliers (± 0.25s) before proceeding 4*
- Repeat measurement of Tmn rest
(H)
Hyperemic Transit Time
- Induce hyperemia 5
- Confirm hyperemia*6
- Flush/purge pre-Tmn hyp to clear any blood and contrast 6
- Room temperature saline 6
- Brisk 3 mL x 3 injections 6
- Address outliers (± 0.15s) before proceeding 4**
- Decrease in pressure, patient symptoms, FFR drop
Repeat measurement of Tmn hyp
(C)
Coronary Flow Reserve (CFR)
- CFR <2.5*4
- CFR grey zone 2.0-2.4*
- Evolving consensus
(M)
Index of Microcirculatory Resistance (IMR)
- IMR ≥252
- Use IMRcorr if FFR ≤0.807
(D)
Diagnosis
- Diagnosis of CMD based on IMR ≥25 and CFR <2.5*2,4
- CFR grey zone 2.0-2.4*
- Refer to guidelines and consensus document2,4, 8-9
- Evolving consensus
