• Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to perform hemodynamic mapping of the entire vessel using motorized pullback of a pressure guidewire with continuous instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) measurement. Background Serial stenoses or diffuse vessel narrowing hamper pressure wire–guided management of coronary stenoses. Characterization of functional relevance of individual stenoses or narrowed segments constitutes an unmet need in ischemia-driven percutaneous revascularization. Methods The study was performed in 32 coronary arteries with tandem and/or diffusely diseased vessels. An automated iFR physiological map, integrating pullback speed and physiological information, was built using dedicated software to calculate physiological stenosis severity, length, and intensity (ΔiFR/mm). This map was used to predict the best-case post–percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) iFR (iFRexp ) according to the stented location, and this was compared with the observed iFR post-PCI (iFRobs ). Results After successful PCI, the mean difference between iFRexp and iFRobs was small (mean difference: 0.016 ± 0.004) with a strong relationship between ΔiFRexp and ΔiFRobs (r = 0.97, p < 0.001). By identifying differing iFR intensities, it was possible to identify functional stenosis length and quantify the contribution of each individual stenosis or narrowed segment to overall vessel stenotic burden. Physiological lesion length was shorter than anatomic length (12.6 ± 1.5 vs. 23.3 ± 1.3, p < 0.001), and targeting regions with the highest iFR intensity predicted significant improvement post-PCI (r = 0.86, p < 0.001). Conclusions iFR measurements during continuous resting pressure wire pullback provide a physiological map of the entire coronary vessel. Before a PCI, the iFR pullback can predict the hemodynamic consequences of stenting specific stenoses and thereby may facilitate the intervention and stenting strategy.
