Brief Summary:
Prospective, single-arm, multicenter study of patients with an intermediate pre-test probability of CAD and positive exercise stress tests referred for invasive angiography. Patients underwent an invasive diagnostic procedure (IDP) with measurement of fractional flow reserve (FFR) and index of microvascular resistance (IMR) in at least one coronary vessel. The objective was to determine the false discovery rate (FDR) of cardiac exercise stress tests with both FFR and IMR as references.
Detailed Description:
The Redefining the Diagnostic Performance of Non-invasive Tests for the Detection of Coronary Artery Disease: UZ Clear is an investigator-initiated, single-arm, multicenter, prospective study of patients presenting with chest pain with an intermediate probability of CAD. The intermediate pre-test probability of CAD was defined based on the European Society of Cardiology Guidelines as a score between 15% and 85% based on age, sex, and the nature of symptoms. All patients had a positive exercise stress test and were referred for an invasive evaluation. Patients underwent a study protocol with an invasive diagnostic procedure (IDP) consisting of measurements of FFR and IMR in at least one coronary vessel. Exclusion criteria are acute coronary syndromes, known coronary artery disease, previous myocardial infarction, previous revascularization, and abnormal baseline electrocardiogram (ECG). All data were centrally collected and analyzed by the core laboratory.
The primary objective was to determine the false discovery rate of exercise stress tests using an interventional diagnostic procedure (IDP) with indexes of epicardial (FFR) and microvascular resistance (IMR) as clinical references. The secondary objective was to assess the impact of an IDP accounting for the presence of CMD on the accuracy of exercise stress tests.
