Color Priming and Patient Decision-Making in the Emergency Department: Priming "Threat" in Patients With Low-Risk Chest Pain

This will be a prospective cross-sectional study. We will evaluate a convenience sample of patients in the ED with low-risk chest pain defined by a HEART score of 3 or less. Patients will be consented for participation and will fill out one of two surveys concerning their chest pain and chances of adverse cardiac events based on their HEART score. One survey will be printed in red text and feature red graphics; the other will be printed in black-and-white and feature black and-white graphics. The surveys will otherwise be identical. Enrolled patients will be asked to fill out survey questions related to their perception of their safety and their comfort with their discharge.
