Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The register study CGM@CAD will examine whether cardiogoniometry can provide additional information concerning the indication for a diagnostic coronary angiography and if so, which additional value it has. Therefore, an additional cardiogoniometry will be carried out in consecutive patients who have been diagnosed with myocardial ischemia by means of established methods (exercise ECG, stress echocardiography, myocardial scintigraphy, or stress-MRT) and for whom an intracardiac catheter examination is regarded as indicated. The results of the different methods - particularly the results of the exercise ECG and the cardiogoniometry - will be checked against the results of the invasive examination as gold standard and the discharge diagnosis with regards to any correlation.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: patients with stable angina pectoris

stable patients, who have been admitted to one of the participating centres for an elective coronary angiography

Procedure: cardiogoniometry
In the course of the project a cardiogoniometry will be carried out during the ambulant or residential hospitalization before the coronary angiography.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. additional value of cardiogoniometry [at hospital admission]

    The protocol defines that the medical examination is to be preformed at hospital adimssion and again at discharge. Aim is to examine if cardiogoniometry can provide additional information for the decision to perform a diagnostic coronary angiography and if so, which additional value it has.

  2. additional value of cardiogoniometry [at hospital discharge]

    The protocol defines that the medical examination is to be preformed at hospital adimssion and again at discharge. Aim is to examine if cardiogoniometry can provide additional information for the decision to perform a diagnostic coronary angiography and if so, which additional value it has.
