Highlights • Continuous thermodilution is a novel technique that can quantify microvascular resistance (R). • Our exploratory study showed that R predicted microvascular dysfunction in a STEMI population. • Timely assessment of microvascular dysfunction in STEMI can guide patient management. • The clinical value of R should be explored in larger studies.
