Ruling Out Coronary Artery Disease and Myocardial Injury by Biomarkers
Sponsor: University Hospital, Akershus
Summary
A considerable proportion of patients with clinically suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) do not have angiographic signs of luminal narrowing caused by coronary atherosclerosis. In patients with suspected CAD, we will assess the ability of cardiovascular biomarkers to identify patients with (a) angiographically normal epicardial coronary vessels (b) absence of significant epicardial coronary stenosis, as assessed by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). Patients will be stratified according to the presence or absence of dynamic changes of high sensitivity cardiac troponin T levels above the 99th percentile.
