High dose escalation of intracoronary adenosine in the assessment of fractional flow reserve: A retrospective cohort study.

Maximal hyperaemia for fractional flow reserve (FFR) may not be achieved with the current recommended doses of intracoronary adenosine. Higher doses (up to 720 μg) have been reported to optimize hyperaemic stimuli in small dose-response studies. Real-world data from a large cohort of patients is nee...
