Assessment

Primary outcomes

Changes in hyperemic absolute coronary blood flow Q in mL per min and hyperemic coronary microvascular resistance Rmu in Wood units in the target vessel from immediately before to immediately after PCI

Key secondary outcomes

1) Changes in coronary flow reserve (CFR), fractional flow reserve (FFR), and microvascular resistance reserve (MRR) in the target vessel from immediately before to immediately after PCI. 2) Inter-vessel heterogeneity of coronary microvascular resistance (Rmu) among the three major coronary arteries before PCI, including standard deviation, coefficient of variation, and max-min difference. 3) Absolute coronary blood flow, coronary microvascular resistance, and MRR in non-target vessels before PCI, and the prevalence of coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD), defined as MRR less than 3.0. 4) Associations of changes in absolute coronary blood flow and coronary microvascular resistance with FFR, QCA findings, intracoronary imaging findings, and patient background factors. 5) Changes in patient-reported outcomes, including SAQ-7, PHQ-9, and GAD-7, from before PCI to approximately 1 month after PCI, and their associations with coronary physiological indices.

Interventions/Control_1

During PCI, coronary physiological assessment will be performed using continuous thermodilution with the RayFlow catheter. Absolute coronary blood flow and coronary microvascular resistance will be measured in the target vessel immediately before PCI. When feasible in terms of procedure time, contrast volume, and hemodynamic stability, measurements will also be performed in the three major coronary arteries including non-target vessels before PCI. After PCI, only the target vessel will be measured again. The intervention will be performed once in the catheterization laboratory on the day of PCI. The additional procedure time is approximately 10 minutes when only the target vessel is measured before and after PCI, and approximately 20 minutes when three-vessel measurements before PCI and target-vessel measurement after PCI are performed. For each vessel, room-temperature saline will be infused at 10 mL/min for 60 seconds for resting measurement, followed by infusion at 20 mL/min for 60 seconds for hyperemic measurement.
