The patients were scheduled for exercise ECG, CCTA and invasive coronary angiography within 4 weeks. The study then calculated rSS and the sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values (PPV and NPV) and accuracy of symptoms, rSS, exercise ECG and CCTA, taking computational pressure-flow dynamics derived fractional flow reserve (caFFR) as the standard reference.Results: A total of 114 patients were enrolled in this study, including 75 patients with caFFR-positive and 39 patients with caFFR-negative. The caFFR-positive group had more patients with typical angina. Furthermore, the rSS in the caFFR-positive group was higher than that in the caFFR-negative category (7.33 ± 6.56 vs 3.34 ± 4.26, p < 0.001). There was no significant difference in exercise ECG results between the two groups. However, the rate of positive CCTA in the caFFR-positive group was higher than that in the caFFR-negative category (89.33% vs 46.15%, p < 0.001). In addition, after combining symptoms, rSS and CCTA, the sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and accuracy for diagnose were 77.5%, 84.2%, 90.2%, 66.7% and 79.8%, respectively.Conclusion: The findings showed that exercise ECG had limited power to diagnose significant CAD in elderly post-PCI patients, but CCTA was more efficient. Moreover, combining symptoms, rSS and CCTA provided more accurate diagnostic performance with feasibility and safety.Keywords: coronary CT angiography, residual syntax score, exercise ECG, percutaneous coronary intervention, elderly |
