This retrospective study will investigate clinician behavior in diagnosing patients with possible obstructive coronary artery disease who received a Corus CAD (Age/Sex/Gene Expression score - ASGES) result compared to patients who did not have the test performed (matched control patients).
This retrospective study will investigate clinician behavior in diagnosing patients with possible obstructive coronary artery disease who received a Corus CAD (Age/Sex/Gene Expression score - ASGES) result compared to patients who did not have the test performed (matched control patients). The data collected will be from primary care practices and will also assess one to two year health outcomes (MACE, procedure complications). Furthermore, in these real world practice settings, the study will investigate the economic impact of Corus CAD (ASGES) usage at each practice using practice specific data, when available.

Reduction in advanced cardiac testing in the low Corus CAD (Age/Sex/Gene Expression score - ASGES) score (<=15) group.
The primary endpoint of the study is the change in number of advanced cardiac diagnostic tests (exercise ECG, stress myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI), cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA) or invasive coronary angiography (ICA)) ordered and number of subject referrals to specialty care by the primary clinician, comparing low score Corus CAD (\<=15) patients (Corus CAD arm) and matched control patients who did not receive Corus CAD testing (control arm).
Time frame: 120 days
Tests/referrals ordered, between low score Corus CAD (ASGES) subjects and control subjects
Tests/referrals ordered, between low score Corus CAD (ASGES) subjects and control subjects, allowing for physician-dependent rates.
