Study Overview

Brief Summary

This is a single centre, prospective diagnostic accuracy study to assess the comparative sensitivity of dobutamine versus adenosine for detection of severe non-infarct epicardial coronary artery stenosis in subjects with reduced LV EF ( EFed referred for clinical coronary angiography for investigation of symptoms or to establish the cause heart failure. Study participants will be identified from hospital angiography referral waiting lists, or already known with CAD and from heart failure outpatient clinics at Glenfield General Hospital. Clinical and CMR data will be collated on-site (at Glenfield General Hospital) from medical records stored and stress cardiac MRI scans at Glenfield General Hospital. The analysis will occur over a 12-month period following study commencement.

Detailed Description

Aim The primary aim of this study is to assess the comparative sensitivity of adenosine and dobutamine for detection of severe CAD in patients with HFrEF. Secondary aims are to evaluate how the addition of stress perfusion may alter management compared to CMR without stress.

Primary hypothesis:

In patients with HFrEF (EF≤40%), dobutamine perfusion has superior sensitivity to adenosine for the detection of non-infarct severe CAD (>70% epicardial coronary artery stenosis).

Secondary hypotheses The addition of stress perfusion imaging to CMR cine and LGE imaging does not significantly increase the accuracy for determining whether the aetiology of HFrEF is due to CAD or not.

The response to adenosine (haemodynamics/splenic T1) will be inversely related to markers of LV dysfunction/injury (high sensitivity troponin I/B-type natriuretic peptide) and directly to EF.
