Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio (iFR) Correlates With Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) Assessment of Coronary Artery Stenoses and Myocardial Bridges in Children.

CONCLUSIONS: iFR correlated with FFR in the assessment of CA stenoses in children. iFR does not require administration of pharmacological agents; thus, it may reduce procedural time, cost, and complications, and result in more widespread adoption of invasive assessment of CA lesions in young patients.
