MiraQ for assessing graft flow during coronary artery bypass graft surgery (HTG275)
Evidence-based recommendations on MiraQ for assessing graft flow during coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
Lipid disorders: FH assessment and diagnosis (historical readings) (IND260)
This indicator covers the percentage of patients with a total cholesterol reading greater than 7.5 mmol/litre when aged 29 years or under, or greater than 9.0 mmol/litre when aged 30 years or over, who have been: diagnosed with secondary hyperlipidaemia, or clinically assessed for familial hypercholesterolaemia, or referred for assessment for familial hypercholesterolaemia, or genetically diagnosed with familial hypercholesterolaemia. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM244
Evidence-based recommendations on off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. This involves attaching a healthy blood vessel to the heart muscle so that blood can get round (‘bypass’) the affected part of the coronary artery.

Peripheral arterial disease: diagnosis and management (CG147)
This guideline covers diagnosing and managing peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in people aged 18 and over. Rapid changes in diagnostic methods, endovascular treatments and vascular services associated with new specialties in surgery and interventional radiology have resulted in considerable uncertainty and variation in practice. This guideline aims to resolve that uncertainty and variation.
NICE has developed a medtech innovation briefing (MIB) on MiraQ cardiac TTFM with high-frequency probe for assessing graft flow during coronary artery bypass graft surgery .
Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous insertion of a temporary heart pump for left ventricular haemodynamic support in high-risk percutaneous coronary interventions. This involves inserting temporary pump to support circulation during a heart operation.

Evidence on the efficacy of bioresorbable stent implantation to treat coronary artery disease is inadequate. Evidence on its safety has...
Ticagrelor for the treatment of acute coronary syndromes (TA236)
Evidence-based recommendations on ticagrelor (Brilique) for treating acute coronary syndromes in adults.
Evidence-based recommendations on QAngio XA 3D QFR and CAAS vFFR imaging software for assessing coronary stenosis during invasive coronary angiography.
Coronary sinus narrowing device implantation for refractory angina (HTG600)
Evidence-based recommendations on coronary sinus narrowing device implantation for refractory angina in adults. This involves putting a device into the coronary sinus to narrow it with the aim of improving the flow of oxygenated blood throughout the heart muscle.

Percutaneous laser revascularisation for refractory angina pectoris (HTG193)
Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous laser revascularisation for refractory angina pectoris. This involves inserting a catheter into major vessels of the groin, which is advanced to the heart, to drill holes on the heart muscle using a laser beam.

This quality standard covers identifying and managing familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) in children, young people and adults. FH is a type of high cholesterol that runs in families and increases the risk of heart disease. The quality standard describes high-quality care in priority areas for improvement.

Angina and coronary heart disease: anti-platelet or anticoagulation (IND132)
This indicator covers the percentage of patients with coronary heart disease with a record in the preceding 12 months that aspirin, an alternative anti-platelet therapy, or an anti-coagulant is being taken. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM88.
