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

Completed
Conditions
Coronary Artery Disease
Registration Number
NCT01581671
Lead Sponsor
Mayo Clinic
Brief Summary

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.

Detailed Description

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.
