NCT02921438

Brief Summary

The study is a prospective multi-centre observational study to evaluate a portable magnetocardiograph device for the rule-out of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in patients who present to the emergency department with chest pain and other symptoms consistent with ACS.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Sensitivity and specificity of MCG

    Sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing ACS, focusing on rule-out, in chest pain patients with normal sinus rhythm

    at discharge, 3 months follow-up

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Proportion of adverse events and types

    at discharge, 3 months follow-up

  • All-cause mortality (divided into CV and non-CV causes) proportion

    through 1 week and 3 months follow-up

  • Change in sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing ACS, focusing on rule-out, in chest pain patients with normal sinus rhythm, according to low, intermediate and high PTP groups

    at discharge, 3 months follow-up

  • MACE post-presentation to the ED (rule-out of ACS divided into MCG vs reference standard [adjudicated ACS/non-ACS diagnose])

    through 1 week and 3 months

Study Arms (1)

Chest pain patients presenting to the ED

All patients that present to the emergency department with chest pain and potentially other symptoms consistent with ACS and meet all eligibility criteria will undergo VitalScan Magnetocardiograph.

Device: VitalScan Magnetocardiograph

Interventions

A passive, non-contact, mobile medical device that measures, displays, stores, and retrieves magnetic fluctuations caused by heart activity at a patient's bedside.

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

All patients that present to the ED with chest pain syndrome of suspected cardiac origin (i.e. symptoms consistent with ACS) who are in normal sinus rhythm

You may qualify if:

  • Patient presents to the ED with chest pain syndrome of suspected cardiac origin (i.e. symptoms consistent with ACS)
  • + year old male or female
  • Patient is willing and able to give written informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • ST-segment Elevation MI (STEMI)
  • Clear non-ischaemic cause for symptoms (e.g. trauma)
  • Haemodynamic instability on admission (e.g. BP\>220mmHg systolic \& \>110mmHg diastolic, \<80mmHg systolic \& \<40mmHg diastolic, HR\>160bpm)
  • Ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation that cannot be treated effectively
  • Atrial fibrillation
  • Thoracic metal implants
  • Pacemaker or internal defibrillator
  • Pregnancy (if after 20-week period)\* or lactation
  • Patient unable to lie down (i.e. supine position) or stay still on the examination bed
  • Patient unable to understand the informed consent process and/or has a poor understanding of English (e.g. English-speaking relative/translator not available)
  • Patient unable to comply with the requirements of the protocol
