Original Article Vieira et al. Evaluation myocardial ischemia with iFR Arq Bras Cardiol. 2020; 114(2):256-264 Figure 5 – ROC curve for the iFR (instantaneous wave-free ratio); a sensitivity of 0.57 and 1-specificity of 0.88 was observed for the iFR cut-off point of 0.87, obtained from the classification tree. AUC: area under the curve. 1.00 1.00 0.75 0.75 0.50 0.50 0.25 0.25 0.00 0.00 1 - Specificity Sensitivity AUC = 0.7933 study was achieved – we showed the additional contribution of the iFR to the therapeutic decision making in moderate and severe coronary disease, when the correlation between obstructive coronary artery disease and myocardial ischemia is not clearly defined by conventional diagnostic methods.
