Cardiogoniometry for Early Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease Symptomatik

The register study CGM@CAD will examine whether cardiogoniometry can provide additional information concerning the indication for a diagnostic coronary angiography and if so, which additional value it has. Therefore, an additional cardiogoniometry will be carried out in consecutive patients who have been diagnosed with myocardial ischemia by means of established methods (exercise ECG, stress echocardiography, myocardial scintigraphy, or stress-MRT) and for whom an intracardiac catheter examination is regarded as indicated. The results of the different methods - particularly the results of the exercise ECG and the cardiogoniometry - will be checked against the results of the invasive examination as gold standard and the discharge diagnosis with regards to any correlation.

Inclusion criteria

Indication for a coronary angiography
Age > 18 years
Patients written informed consent

Exclusion criteria

Patients with known CHD (condition after myocardial infarction and/or angio-graphically proven stenosis > 50% and/ or revascularization )
Patients with acute coronary syndrome
Patients with pace maker
Severe valvular heart defect
50% extrasystole
Patients with dysrhythmia, which make a correct interpretation impossible (e.g. VES, bigeminies and other dysrhythmia with a high impact such as atrial extrasystoles)

Treatment and study plan

cardiogoniometry

Procedure

In the course of the project a cardiogoniometry will be carried out during the ambulant or residential hospitalization before the coronary angiography.

Primary outcomes

additional value of cardiogoniometry

Time frame: at hospital admission

The protocol defines that the medical examination is to be preformed at hospital adimssion and again at discharge. Aim is to examine if cardiogoniometry can provide additional information for the decision to perform a diagnostic coronary angiography and if so, which additional value it has.
