ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the multifunction cardiogram (MCG), and SYNTAX score (SS) and functional SYNTAX score (FSS) in detecting the presence of intermediate to obstructive coronary lesions.BACKGROUND:
Performing coronary angiography (CAG) and measuring fractional flow reserve (FFR) to calculate the SS and FSS is inherently invasive and adds complexity.METHODS:
The MCG was obtained and analyzed before performing CAG in 87 consecutive subjects with suspected coronary artery disease who were scheduled for elective CAG. The patients were divided into three groups according to risk based on high, borderline, and low MCG scores. The SS was determined, as well as FSS but only by counting lesions prone to functional ischemia (FFR ≤ 0.8). The relationship between the MCG and the SS and FSS was evaluated.RESULTS:
The MCG was the only test significantly associated with the SS (odds ratio, 2.92 [1.60 - 5.31], P < 0.001) and FSS (odds ratio, 3.66 [1.95 - 6.87], P < 0.001). A high MCG score had a specificity of 92.6% (89.0-96.2%) and 92.3% (89.0-95.6%), and a predictive accuracy of 72.4% (67.6-77.2%) and 82.8% (78.7-86.8%) for the prediction of SS and FSS, respectively.CONCLUSIONS:
The MCG showed high specificity and predictive accuracy especially for the FSS, suggesting that it is useful not only in identifying functionally significant ischemia but also in reducing unnecessary CAGs.Palavras-chave
