Conditions

Coronary Artery Disease

Brief summary

This is a prospective, multi-center study to capture information on sensitivity and specificity of CADence using coronary angiogram as the gold standard, on subjects who are already scheduled for coronary angiography.

Detailed description

CADence is an ECG and acoustic tool to assess coronary artery disease. This study's goal is to collect patient CADence information and compare it to the results of angiogram to determine performance: sensitivity and specificity. The CADence is not used to direct patient care. This is observational only.

Percent of Participants With Positive Agreement of CADence Device Under Normal Use Conditions as Compared to Coronary Angiograms as Accurate and Appropriate24 hours or discharge from hospital, whichever is soonerAngiographically significant stenosis was defined as 70% or greater stenosis in any major coronary artery. Percent of Participants with Positive Agreement of CADence Device Under Normal Use Conditions as Compared to Coronary Angiograms as accurate and appropriate. The study is used to determine two conditions. CADence = Positive for 70% or greater stenosis and CADence = Negative for less than 70% stenosis. The pre-specified intent of this Outcome Measure was to assess all study participants combined, irrespective of whether or not they participated in the Ambience main study or the repeatability and reproducibility sub-study.

Outcome results

Primary

Percent of Participants With Positive Agreement of CADence Device Under Normal Use Conditions as Compared to Coronary Angiograms as Accurate and Appropriate

Angiographically significant stenosis was defined as 70% or greater stenosis in any major coronary artery. Percent of Participants with Positive Agreement of CADence Device Under Normal Use Conditions as Compared to Coronary Angiograms as accurate and appropriate. The study is used to determine two conditions. CADence = Positive for 70% or greater stenosis and CADence = Negative for less than 70% stenosis. The pre-specified intent of this Outcome Measure was to assess all study participants combined, irrespective of whether or not they participated in the Ambience main study or the repeatability and reproducibility sub-study.

Time frame: 24 hours or discharge from hospital, whichever is sooner

Population: The Ambience study included a sub-study within the same population. The sub-study was to evaluate the repeatability and reproducibility of the CADence System. Repeatability refers to the ability of the same System operator to obtain the same results each time the same subject is tested with the same System at two points in time. Reproducibility refers to the ability of different operators to obtain the same results when they evaluate the same subjects with either the same or different Systems.
