Ouch, QFR. In the FAVOR III Europe trial, it loses out against FFR for PCI guidance. For those who enjoy statistical tortures, QFR didn’t just fail to show noninferiority; it was actually inferior. More stents, more myocardial infarctions. Who will give me back the hours I spent obtaining the certification? #TCT2024 thelancet.com/journals/lance…

A long journey. Thank you to all collaborators, co-inventors, co-authors, co-pioneers!
Here are the complete 5-year data for the NHLBI LAMPOON trial.
LAMPOON enabled #TMVR despite the risk for #LVOT obstruction. There were no long-term complications assoc w/ LAMPOON. The selection of inoperable pts limited assessment of long-term survival following TMVR bit.ly/4h6fH4H
