High-Sensitivity Troponin T and Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography for Rapid Diagnosis of Emergency Chest Pain

NCT01836211 · Status: TERMINATED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 101

Last updated 2013-04-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

* The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of an evaluation strategy based on utilization of high sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hscTnT), followed by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in patients with low-intermediate risk chest pain consistent with a possible acute coronary syndrome compared to a standard of care (SOC) strategy.
* Unicentric, randomized, controlled, open label clinical trial that will compare a fast strategy (hscTnT followed by CCTA) with a SOC strategy (serial ECG and cardiac biomarkers followed by stress/rest imaging study).
