ACIST Contrast Delivery System has which of the following capabilities?

• A. Compatible for FFR measurements
• B. Cannot manage air
• C. Not intended for multi-patient use
• D. Cannot monitor hemodynamic pressure

Answer: (A)

FFR relies on measuring coronary pressure with a pressure wire while a controlled contrast injection is performed. The ACIST Contrast Delivery System is designed to integrate smoothly with that workflow, allowing you to perform functional assessment of a lesion by providing compatible, reliable contrast delivery without compromising the pressure signal. In other words, it supports FFR measurements, which is why this capability is the best choice. The other statements don’t fit because an FFR-capable injector must not block or distort pressure readings during measurement, and it must be usable within the standard pressure-wire–based workflow.
