Analysis Between Coronary Angiotomography and Sensitive Troponin in Intermediate Risk of Acute Coronary Syndrome

NCT02772991 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 100

Last updated 2018-02-05

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

In recent years, a large number of studies have been conducted on how to improve the treatment of patients in the Emergency Room (ER) complaining of chest pains. Great advances have been achieved recently regarding diagnostic methods aided by coronary CT angiopraphy (CCTA) and sensitive troponins. However, various questions about these methods still remain obscure and there is no effective comparison between them in patients with intermediate risk. The aim of the study is to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of sensitivity troponins in the detection of coronary artery disease in patients with chest pain and the intermediate probability of ACS compared with CCTA.
