Maximal hyperemia is a prerequisite for the accurate measurement of fractional flow reserve (FFR). Although continuous infusion of adenosine via the femoral vein is considered to be the gold standard, this requires an additional invasive procedure for femoral vein access and is difficult to use during transradial coronary catheterization. We performed this prospective study to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of peripheral intravenous infusion of adenosine for FFR measurement.
