FFR: Fractional flow reserve; SD: Standard deviation. Table 4 summarize the primary studies evaluating the instantaneous wave free ratio (iFR). These trials have evaluated the correlation rate between iFR and FFR value and showed that iFR guided- percutaneous interventions (PCI) could be an alternative to FFR guided-PCI.
