Abstract
Background: Quantitative flow ratio (QFR)-based virtual percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with improved post-PCI physiological results. Murray law-based QFR (μQFR) is a new method for physiological assessment that has higher feasibility and efficiency. The purpose of this study was to investigate the performance of μQFR-guided virtual PCI in improving post-PCI outcomes.
Methods: The QUITE RIGHT study (Quantitative Flow Ratio Virtual Stenting and Angiography Guided Percutaneous Coronary Intervention) is a prospective, multicenter, blinded, randomized, controlled superiority study. Eligible patients were randomized 1:1 to either the μQFR-guided virtual PCI group or the angiography-guided PCI group. The primary end point was the proportion of the target vessels with a post-PCI μQFR ≥0.90, accepted as an optimal post-PCI physiological outcome.
Results: A total of 622 patients with 666 vessels were enrolled. The optimal physiological outcome was reached more often in the μQFR-guided virtual PCI group (absolute difference, 9.1% [95% CI, 4.53-13.76]; P<0.001). The μQFR-guided virtual PCI group had a better QFR value, a lower contrast agent dose and x-ray dose, and a more appropriate stent length than the angiography-guided group.
Conclusions: The QUITE RIGHT study showed that the μQFR-guided virtual PCI strategy is superior to angiography-guided PCI in terms of physiological outcomes. The μQFR-guided virtual PCI strategy is associated with lower contrast and x-ray doses and a more appropriate stent length.

Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, an American Heart Association journal, focuses on interventional techniques pertaining to coronary artery disease, structural heart disease, and vascular disease, with priority placed on original research and on randomized trials and large registry studies. In addition, pharmacological, diagnostic, and pathophysiological aspects of interventional cardiology are given special attention in this online-only journal.
