Non-Invasive Peripheral Arterial Tonometry (EndoPAT) Increases Diagnostic Yield of Coronary Artery Disease by Coronary Angiography
The purpose of this study is to assess the non-invasive, Peripheral Arterial Tonometry (PAT)
testing as another way of predicting potential coronary artery blockages in the heart.
We are conducting a 16 minute, non-invasive EndoPAT test on patients coming to our cath lab
for a first-time angiogram. The angiogram results will be compared to the EndoPAT results
to determine if the EndoPAT test, which generates a score, is successful in predicting who
may have blockages in their coronary arteries.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients without known coronary disease who are referred for coronary angiography.
- Adults 18 years and older.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients with known coronary disease, acute coronary syndrome, cardiac
transplantation, and severe connective tissue disease.
