Non-Invasive EndoPAT Increases Diagnostic Yield of CAD by Coronary Angiography

Mayo Clinic201 enrolled

Overview

The purpose of this study is to assess the non-invasive, Peripheral Arterial Tonometry (PAT) testing as another way of predicting potential coronary artery blockages in the heart.

We are conducting a 16 minute, non-invasive EndoPAT test on patients coming to our cath lab for a first-time angiogram. The angiogram results will be compared to the EndoPAT results to determine if the EndoPAT test, which generates a score, is successful in predicting who may have blockages in their coronary arteries.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

To determine if the assessment of endothelial function by non-invasive peripheral arterial tonometry improves diagnostic yield of elective coronary angiography

Will compare the score of the EndoPAT test to the outcome of the angiogram to determine if the score is predictive of coronary artery disease.

Time frame: same day as the angiogram
