I have brought up a Cleveland Clinic paper title of Fractional Flow Reserve, mentioned on my very brief two line report Line two:-
Moderate mid and distal RCA disease,
Negative on pressure wire FFR and RFR .
On the paper in relation to RFR line. How do I prepare for the coronary fractional flow reserve assessment ?
It clearly says Youe provider may ask you to refrane from taking certain medicines especially BLOOD THINNERS several days beforr the procedure.
In my case i was provided with a full box of Apaxaban and full box of 75ml Asprin and told that with my meal the night before my Angiogram to take 6 Apaxaban AND 4 Asprin.
If they are testing floww with the wire I would think as in this paper I should have normal blood thicknes to see haow bad the blockage was ?
