Coronary Disease in Emergency Department Chest Pain Patients with Recent Negative Stress Testing
BACKGROUND Cardiac stress tests for diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) are incompletely sensitive and specific. OBJECTIVE We examined the frequency of significant CAD in patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with chest pain who have had a recent negative or inconclusive (<85% of predicted maximum heart rate) cardiac stress test.

BACKGROUND More than 70% of the two million patients admitted to U.S. hospitals annually for suspected acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are found not to have had a ca...

Alternative etiologies are numerous, including aortic stenosis, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, hypertensive urgency, and esophageal, lung, ...
متن کاملPrognosis of negative adenosine stress magnetic resonance in patients presenting to an emergency department with chest pain.
OBJECTIVES This study was designed to determine the diagnostic value of adenosine cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in troponin-negative patients with chest pain. BACKGROUND We hypothesized that adenosine CMR could determine which troponin-negative patients with chest pain in an emergency department have coronary artery disease (CAD) or future adverse cardiac events. METHODS Adenosine stress...
