Simple Education has been running physiology and imaging courses for 10 years, and in that time have seen the field change as the influence of technology makes a greater and greater impact. In 2011, iFR was first described as a new tool to simplify physiological lesion assessment. Since then, much development and validation has taken place to enable iFR to become an important tool in the catheter laboratory. However, from the earliest times the benefits of iFR for doing systematic lesion assessment (or pullbacks) was apparent, as it didn’t have the same limitations for serial lesion assessment as FFR. Recently using the latest co-registration techniques, it has been possible to fuse together the serial lesion physiological assessment of iFR, with the coronary angiogram and IVUS data. This fusion of anatomy and physiology has enabled, targeted treating of coronary stenoses to take place, and differentiation of focal and diffuse disease. In doing so, this has opened a new chapter in the field of coronary revascularisation. Now, physiological and anatomical information can be used together in coronary revascularisation decision-making leading to many more research questions and further shifts in treatment paradigms.
All courses are largely based on live learning from transmitted and recorded cases, linked to the meeting room with cutting edge technology which facilitates discussion and interaction with all attendees. We are delighted to bring live and recorded cases demonstrations from Hospital Clinico San Carlos, Madrid, Spain to showcase the planning of PCI procedures and, subsequently, the use of diagnostic and therapeutic tools during the intervention.
Since 2015, Simple Education live courses has been approved by Federation of Royal College of Physicians of the United Kingdom for CPD credits.
