ACIST diastolic pressure ratio (dPR), using the ACIST RXi® Rapid Exchange System and Navvus® II MicroCatheter, provides a non-hyperemic alternative for physiological assessment of coronary disease.

ACIST diastolic pressure ratio (dPR), using the ACIST RXi® Rapid Exchange System, provides a non-hyperemic alternative for physiological assessment of coronary disease. Non-hyperemic pressure ratios, such as dPR, may reduce patient discomfort1, cost1 and procedural time.1

ACIST dPR algorithm

The dPR algorithm provides a non-hyperemic alternative for evaluating coronary artery stenosis by measuring a ratio of Pd to Pa at the peak-to-peak midpoint, averaged over five consecutive heartbeats, without relying on an ECG signal for the calculation.
ACIST dPR is the ratio of Pd to Pa at the peak-to-peak midpoint, averaged over 5 consecutive heartbeats. ACIST dPR does not rely on an ECG signal to make the calculation.

Analysis of the ACIST FFR Study1

Analysis of ACIST dPR vs. iFR3

Purpose

Waveform data collected during the CONTRAST4 clinical study was retrospectively assessed on both the ACIST RXi System and Philips CORE Mobile System to compare dPR and iFR results.

Methods

A validated hemodynamic test fixture was used to simulate signals to the RXi and Philips consoles for 671 paired lesions.

Key points

  • ACIST dPR is highly correlated with iFR
  • ACIST dPR provides similar diagnostic accuracy as iFR

Results

Diagnostic accuracy of dPR (cutpoint of 0.89) referenced to iFR (0.89) was 93.89%

* Reduced side effect profile when comparing resting approach (iFR, dPR, Pd/Pa) to FFR with adenosine induced hyperemia
** Cost savings based on the reduced cost of utilizing a resting approach compared to conventional FFR and respective cost of admInistration of hyperemic agent (adenosine)
*** When comparing resting index (iFR, dPR, Pd/Pa) to FFR with adenosine induced hyperemia
