Diagnostic Value of Comprehensive Cardiothoracic Dual Source CT for the Early Triage of Patients With Undifferentiated Acute Chest Pain

Massachusetts General Hospital·interventional·Posted Feb 11, 2010·Updated Dec 22, 2017

In Brief

A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Comprehensive Cardiothoracic CT arm for Chest Pain Syndrome. Completed, enrolled 59 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The purpose of this research is to determine the efficiency of a single dual source computed tomography (CT-DSCT) protocol to establish or exclude acute coronary syndrome (ACS), pulmonary embolism (PE) or aortic dissection (AD) as compared to the individual protocols. Endpoints aim to compare the rate of emergency department (ED) discharge, length of hospital stay, the diagnostic imaging test utilization, and the costs between the comprehensive and the standard protocol strategy in patients with undifferentiated chest discomfort or shortness of breath with a component of chest discomfort.
