Filter by:A preoperative electrocardiogram (ECG) is nearly routinely performed by anesthesiologists in elderly non-cardiac surgery patients as part of pre-anesthesia evaluation. However, the added value of this routine ECG beyond patient history and physical examination is questionable. The ECGtrial will investigate the efficacy of routine preoperative electrocardiography in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery.
This is a multi-center study to assess the diagnostic accuracy of the Troponin I assay in the Biosite Triage Cardio3 Panel at the point-of-care (POC) in adults presenting to the emergency department with possible acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
The rate of complication and death of patients with acute digestive tract bleeding is increased in the setting of acute coronary heart disease. The aim of the study is to establish the relative importance of the risk factors contributing to the death rate from acute digestive tract bleeding in patients admitted with acute coronary heart disease.
This is a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled study, clinical trail designed to evaluate the efficacy safety and superiority of intravenous boluses of isosorbide dinitrate for the relief of acute anginal pain episodes in acute coronary syndrome patients in comparison with the usual manner of S/L isosorbide dinitrate .
This clinical trial is being conducted to 1) evaluate the possible usefulness of a panel of cardiac markers in assessing emergency department patients with possible acute coronary syndrome, 2) evaluate the usefulness of BNP in assessing emergency department patients with possible acute coronary syndrome, 3) determine if BNP can be used to predict adverse events during hospitalization and in the emergency department, and 4) evaluate how a Point-of-Care testing platform affects resource utilization in the emergency department.
