Does postocclusion hyperemia provide a better estimate of coronary reserve than intracoronary adenosine in patients with coronary artery stenosis?
Because intracoronary 60 mcg ADE elicits a lower hyperemic response than PH, intracoronary ADE represents a potential source of error in coronary reserve measurements, and may result in an underestimation of the physiological significance of a coronary artery stenosis.
Funding to support Indigenous health research through the People Support scheme has increased since the NHMRC adopted policy changes in 2002, but it has not reached the targeted expenditure of at least 5% of agency allocations. The Capacity Building Grants have been a more effective vehicle for funding researchers from Indigenous backgrounds.
