Physiology-stratified analysis of ORBITA

(PCR) Results from the physiology-stratified analysis of ORBITA presented at EuroPCR 2018 and simultaneously published in Circulation demonstrate that PCI improves ischaemia as assessed by dobutamine stress echocardiography, renders more patients free of angina than does placebo and that FFR and iFR do predict the strength of the PCI effect on ischaemia, but this is only clearly seen on blinded stress echo evaluation. It is not visible in the symptom scores or exercise times.
