Detection of Significant Coronary Artery Disease in Nephropathy Patients Utilizing Coronary CTA and Real Time Perfusion DSE: Comparison With Quantitative Coronary Angiography and Patient Outcome
In Brief
An observational study for Coronary Artery Disease and 3 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 189 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study investigates hypothesizes that the combination of dobutamine stress echocardiography with dobutamine stress echocardiography with real time perfusion myocardial contrast echocardiography and coronary computed tomography is a better modality for detecting coronary artery disease in end-stage renal disease patients than coronary angiography, and in predicting patient outcomes. Demonstrating this would lead to increased use of DSE with RTCE and coronary CT at kidney transplant centers throughout the nation, leading to improved anatomical and functional detection of CAD without the need for further invasive procedures.
