RED-LRGP: Reving Early Diagnosis of Cardiovascular Disease in the Utrecht Health Project
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The goal of this randomized trial is to compare the diagnostic yield of a screen-like early diagnosis strategy to usual primary care to detect coronary artery disease (CAD), atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) in community people aged 50-80 years who participate in the Utrecht Health Project.
The diagnosis strategy consists of a questionnaire with questions related to symptoms suggestive of CAD, AF or HF, a focused physical examination, laboratory testing, electrocardiography, and echocardiography.
