Angiographic Comparison in an Observational Study of CADence (The AMBIENCE Study)

This is a prospective, multi-center study to capture information on sensitivity and specificity of CADence using coronary angiogram as the gold standard, on subjects who are already scheduled for coronary angiography.

About this study

CADence is an ECG and acoustic tool to assess coronary artery disease. This study's goal is to collect patient CADence information and compare it to the results of angiogram to determine performance: sensitivity and specificity. The CADence is not used to direct patient care. This is observational only.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percent of Participants With Positive Agreement of CADence Device Under Normal Use Conditions as Compared to Coronary Angiograms as Accurate and Appropriate

    Time frame: 24 hours or discharge from hospital, whichever is sooner

    Angiographically significant stenosis was defined as 70% or greater stenosis in any major coronary artery. Percent of Participants with Positive Agreement of CADence Device Under Normal Use Conditions as Compared to Coronary Angiograms as accurate and appropriate. The study is used to determine two conditions. CADence = Positive for 70% or greater stenosis and CADence = Negative for less than 70% stenosis. The pre-specified intent of this Outcome Measure was to assess all study participants combined, irrespective of whether or not they participated in the Ambience main study or the repeatability and reproducibility sub-study.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With CADence-related Adverse Events

    Time frame: 24 hours or discharge from hospital, whichever is sooner
