Overview
Brief Summary
This is a multicenter, prospective trial to measure the test performance characteristics of the Magnetocardiography (MCG) CardioFlux cardiac diagnostic system in detecting clinically significant coronary artery obstruction in patients with symptoms of suspected acute coronary syndrome or who present with a failed stress test with the intention of treat with cardiac catheterization.
Detailed Description
This is a multicenter, prospective clinical trial studying the utility and accuracy of magnetocardiography (MCG) in identifying critical coronary artery obstruction responsible for myocardial ischemia. The study will enroll up to 1500 patients at high risk for coronary artery disease (CAD) who have been referred for cardiac catheterization. These patients will be recruited from an inpatient service post admission for chest pain or anginal equivalent or from a cohort of symptomatic patients who have failed outpatient stress testing. If they meet other stated inclusion criteria, they will have a 2 minute MCG scan prior to their cardiac catheterization. For comparative purposes, the first 300 patients will have an electrocardiogram (ECG) performed within 60 minutes of this initial scan. After an enrolled study subject has had their catheterization procedure, the results of the catheterization will be reviewed by one of the study's primary investigators. If the subject has had a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), a second MCG scan will be performed prior to their discharge. The MCG scans will be interpreted by 3 physicians trained to read these images and blinded to all clinical information regarding study subjects. The initial MCG scan will be evaluated for its sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and overall accuracy in detecting myocardial ischemia and critical coronary stenosis based on angiographic imaging, fractional flow reserve (FFR), or instant wave-free ratio (iFR) measurements, as applicable. The same statistical analysis will be performed for the ECGs performed on each of the applicable study subjects. When performed, the second MCG will be evaluated for any abnormalities after revascularization. These results will be used to determine the value of post-PCI MCG to predict 30 day and 180 day major adverse cardiac events (MACE)-specifically myocardial infarction or stroke, need for revascularization, or cardiac related death.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Accuracy of MCG to detect myocardial ischemia as determined by cardiac catheterization
Time Frame: 72 hours
Assess accuracy of CardioFlux MCG (MCG-CF) and magnetic field map characteristics with findings of significant coronary artery stenosis ≥70% via angiography and/or via FFR of \<0.8 or via instant wave-free ratio (iFR) .
Accuracy of MCG vs. ECG
Time Frame: 72 hours
Compare CardioFlux MCG accuracy to ECG accuracy in identifying cardiac ischemia using coronary angiography with or without FFR/iFR as gold standard.
Secondary Outcomes
- Incident of post-PCI MACE(6 months)
- Inter-reader reliability percentage(6 months)
