TL;DR: In patients in the emergency department with symptoms suggestive of acute coronary syndromes, incorporating CCTA into a triage strategy improved the efficiency of clinical decision making, as compared with a standard evaluation in theEmergency department, but it resulted in an increase in downstream testing and radiation exposure with no decrease in the overall costs of care.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography for Early Triage of Patients With Acute Chest Pain: The ROMICAT (Rule Out Myocardial Infarction using Computer Assisted Tomography) Trial
Udo Hoffmann,Fabian Bamberg,Claudia U. Chae,John H. Nichols,Ian S. Rogers,Sujith K. Seneviratne,Quynh A. Truong,Ricardo C. Cury,Suhny Abbara,Michael D. Shapiro,Jamaluddin Moloo,Javed Butler,Maros Ferencik,Hang Lee,Ik-Kyung Jang,Blair A. Parry,David F.M. Brown,James E. Udelson,Stephan Achenbach,Thomas J. Brady,John T. Nagurney +20 more
TL;DR: Fifty percent of patients with acute chest pain and low to intermediate likelihood of ACS were free of CAD by computed tomography and had no ACS, suggesting early coronary CTA may significantly improve patient management in the emergency department.
Journal ArticleDOI
Value and Limitations of Chest Pain History in the Evaluation of Patients With Suspected Acute Coronary Syndromes
TL;DR: Although certain elements of the chest pain history are associated with increased or decreased likelihoods of a diagnosis of ACS or AMI, none of them alone or in combination identify a group of patients that can be safely discharged without further diagnostic testing.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-risk plaque detected on coronary CT angiography predicts acute coronary syndromes independent of significant stenosis in acute chest pain: results from the ROMICAT-II trial.
Stefan Puchner,Ting Liu,Ting Liu,Thomas Mayrhofer,Quynh A. Truong,Hang Lee,Jerome L. Fleg,John T. Nagurney,James E. Udelson,Udo Hoffmann,Maros Ferencik,Maros Ferencik +11 more
TL;DR: In patients presenting to the ED with acute chest pain but negative initial electrocardiogram and troponin, presence of high-risk plaques on coronary CTA increased the likelihood of ACS independent of significant CAD and clinical risk assessment (age, sex, and number of cardiovascular risk factors).
Journal ArticleDOI
Coronary Multidetector Computed Tomography in the Assessment of Patients With Acute Chest Pain
Udo Hoffmann,John T. Nagurney,Fabian Moselewski,Antonio J. Pena,Maros Ferencik,Claudia U. Chae,Ricardo C. Cury,Javed Butler,Suhny Abbara,David F.M. Brown,Alex F. Manini,John H. Nichols,Stephan Achenbach,Stephan Achenbach,Thomas J. Brady +14 more
TL;DR: Noninvasive assessment of coronary artery disease by MDCT has good performance characteristics for ruling out ACS in subjects presenting with possible myocardial ischemia to the emergency department and may be useful for improving early triage.
