Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
1. Age > 18 years of age
2. Willing to participate and able to understand, read and sign the informed consent document before the planned procedure
3. Eligible for coronary angiography and/or percutaneous coronary intervention
4. Coronary artery disease with at least 1 or more native major epicardial vessels or their branches by coronary angiogram with visually assessed de novo coronary stenosis in which the physiological severity of the lesion is in question (typically 40-70% diameter stenosis).
5. Stable angina or acute coronary syndrome (non-culprit vessels only and outside of primary intervention during acute STEMI)
Minimum age
18 Years
Maximum age
90 Years
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria:

1. Previous Coronary Artery Bypass surgery with patent grafts to the interrogated vessel
2. Significant left main stenosis (>50% narrowing)
3. Tandem stenoses separated by more than 10 mm that require separate pressure guide wire interrogation or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (not to be interrogated or treated as a single stenosis)
4. Total coronary occlusions (CTOs). NOTE: Patients with CTOs can be included if i) treatment of the CTO is completed first, ii) the CTO PCI is successful, iii) the CTO PCI is successful and iii) the physiological lesion is in another vessel
5. Restenotic lesions
6. Hemodynamic instability at the time of intervention (heart rate<50 beats per minute, systolic blood pressure <90mmHg), balloon pump
7. Significant contraindication to adenosine administration (e.g. heart block, severe asthma)
8. Contraindications to PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) or drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation
9. Heavily calcified or tortuous vessels
10. Significant hepatic or lung disease (chronic pulmonary obstructive disease), and/or malignant disease with unfavourable prognosis that may influence survival within the next 5 years
11. Pregnancy
12. STEMI (ST elevation myocardial infarction) within 48 hours of procedure
13. Severe valvular heart disease
14. ACS patients in whom more than one target vessel is present
