In patients presenting with an ACS FFR- guided PCI, as compared to angiography guided PCI, was associated with lower rates of in-hospital mortality, shorter LOS, less AKI, bleeding and lower hospital charges. There was no significant difference in terms of the incidence of stroke, coronary dissection, VC or the total number of stents used.
