NCT ID: NCT00869245 Completed - Clinical trials for Acute Coronary Syndrome

Efficacy Evaluation of Observation Unit Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in Patients With Intermediate Risk Acute Chest Pain

Start date: March 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to investigate the best way to evaluate patients with chest pain in the emergency department. It compares types of cardiac tests performed while receiving treatment in an observation unit. Patients will either undergo cardiac MRI testing or conventional care testing. Patients treated in the conventional care testing group will undergo the testing their doctor determines is best for them. All patients will undergo follow up to find out if they have had any heart related events.

NCT ID: NCT00855231 Completed - Clinical trials for Acute Coronary Syndrome

Diagnostic Accuracy of Multislice CT Angiography for Acute Chest Pain

ACUTE CT
Start date: July 2006
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The ACUTE CT trial is designed to test whether the assessment of chest structures by high-resolution multislice computed tomography (CT) provides equivalent diagnostic accuracy for patient with acute chest pain or other potential cardiac symptoms as compared to a standard of care evaluation.

NCT ID: NCT00846469 Completed - Chest Pain Clinical Trials

Coronary Computed Tomography (CT) Angiography Versus Standard Therapy in the Emergency Room

Start date: July 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine the usefulness of CCTA (Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography) in the emergency room setting to diagnose and predict the outcome of patients with chest pain who have a low to moderate risk of heart disease. And to also determine if the use of CCTA(Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography) is more cost effective (cost less) than the current standards of care treatments. To determine if patients who present to the emergency room w/low to moderate probability of having an ACS (Acute Coronary Syndrome) prefer CCTA (coronary computed tomography angiography)-based care compared to standard algorithm based care.

NCT ID: NCT00825435 Completed - Acute Chest Pain Clinical Trials

Coronary CT Angiography in Acute Chest Pain is a Cost Effective Risk Stratification Strategy

Start date: October 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study will evaluate the impact of adding coronary computed tomographic angiography (CTA) on health care costs for diagnosing patients with acute chest pain.

NCT ID: NCT00800527 Completed - Chest Pain Clinical Trials

Efficacy of Gabapentin in the Treatment of Chest Pain and Paresthesia in Patients With Sternotomy

Start date: November 2007
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

In this study, the investigators aim to demonstrate the efficacy of gabapentin compared with diclofenac in the treatment of chronic non-ischemic chest pain and paresthesia of the patients with sternotomy and to elucidate the similarities of PCPP to neuropathic pain syndromes.

NCT ID: NCT00769574 Completed - Coronary Syndrome Clinical Trials

Assessment of New Biomarkers in the Management and Triage of Patients With Chest Pain and Suspicion of Non ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome.

Start date: June 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To assess diagnostic and prognostic value of new biomarkers in patients admitted for suspicion of non ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE ACS).

NCT ID: NCT00713102 Completed - Diarrhea Clinical Trials

Surgical and Medical Emergencies on Board of European Aircraft Carriers

Start date: January 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The goal of this retrospective study is to describe emergency relevant illnesses occurring in airline passengers.

NCT ID: NCT00709670 Completed - Chest Pain Clinical Trials

ComParative Diagnostic Study Between Multislice Computed Tomography (MSCT) and Stress Echography in Coronarin Patients.

PEPSI
Start date: September 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to define the best prognostic strategy for patients presenting suspected acute CORONARY syndrome, between MSCT and stress echocardiography.

NCT ID: NCT00705458 Completed - Clinical trials for Coronary Artery Disease

Study Comparing CT Scan and Stress Test in Diagnosing Coronary Artery Disease in Patients Hospitalized for Chest Pain

PROSPECT
Start date: July 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether coronary artery CT scanning or nuclear stress testing is better at diagnosing chest pain patients with coronary artery disease to select appropriate candidates for coronary catheterization and re-vascularization.

NCT ID: NCT00678639 Completed - Clinical trials for Acute Coronary Syndrome

Cost Comparison of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Use in Emergency Department (ED) Patients With Chest Pain

Start date: January 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to investigate the best way to evaluate patients with chest pain in the emergency department. It compares receiving treatment in an observation unit with admission to the hospital. Patients treated in the observation unit will undergo cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) testing. Patients treated with hospital admission will undergo the testing their doctor determines is best for them. All patients will undergo follow up to find out if they have had any heart related events.
