Research summary
This observational study is designed to collect information on coronary artery function in patients which have been collected using a St. Jude Medical Pressure Wire. Approximately 2000 patients will be enrolled in this study. No hospital can enrol more than 10% of the population. Patients who agree to take part in this study will have Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) measurements taken as part of their routine Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) procedure. They may consent to take part in the study either before or after their procedure as all required information is already collected as part of standard care. The total duration of the study is expected to be 4 years, which includes 3 years for enrollment with 2 months follow-up for each patient.
