- Abstract: 【Objective】 To evaluate the role of quantitative flow ratio (QFR) in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) by using regadenoson stress dynamic single-photon emission computed tomography (D-SPECT). 【Methods】 We selected 200 patients with unstable angina admitted to Department of Cardiology, Hebei Medical University First Hospital, from June 31, 2021 to June 31, 2023 for elective PCI. The patients were aged 57.56±8.23 years and were randomly divided into a conventional group (n=100) and a QFR group (n=100) according to a random number table. The trial was conducted using a double-blind method. The conventional group received PCI treatment based on the experience of the physician, while the QFR group received PCI treatment based on the QFR measurement results. All enrolled patients underwent pre-operative and 7-day post-operative D-SPECT stress imaging using regadenoson stress D-SPECT, and their images were acquired from short axis, vertical long axis, and horizontal long axis to calculate the total myocardial perfusion score and the total myocardial ischemia segment number under the distribution of 17 myocardial segments. 【Results】 There was no significant difference in the number of myocardial ischemia segments (7.59±3.14 vs. 7.48±3.36, P=0.811) or the total myocardial perfusion score (15.87±7.61 vs. 15.63±5.97, P=0.860) between the two groups before PCI. The number of myocardial ischemia segments (5.58±3.36 vs. 6.51±2.14, P=0.020) and the total myocardial perfusion score (10.55±4.41 vs. 12.96±6.50, P=0.002) in the QFR group were significantly better than those in the conventional group 7 days after PCI (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Applying QFR guidance for PCI can better improve the degree of myocardial ischemia in patients.
