Potential Diagnostic Biomarkers for Aortic Dissection in the Emergency Department
Sponsor: Chinese University of Hong Kong
Summary
The goal of this observational study is to determine the utility of desmosine, D-dimer and aggrecan as early diagnostic biomarkers in aortic dissection. The main questions it aims to answer are: * To investigate the plasma levels of selected biomarkers in ED patients with confirmed aortic dissection * To study the diagnostic performance of plasma levels of selected biomarkers for aortic dissection * To study the association between plasma levels of selected biomarkers and clinical outcomes
