Impact of Fast-rotation Coronary CT in Patients Undergoing Aortic Stenosis Workup

Impact of Fast Gantry Rotation Cardiac CT Angiography on Coronary Motion Artifacts in the Absence of β-Blocker Premedication in Patients Undergoing Aortic Stenosis Workup: a Single-centre Randomized Controlled Trial


Sponsor

David C. Rotzinger

Enrollment

124 participants

Start Date

Feb 27, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This study aims to evaluate the clinical value of a novel CT gantry supporting a .23 second rotation time and systematically compare it with 0.23 second rotation time, in patients with clinically indicated aortic CTA in the workup of aortic stenosis. Patients will be randomly assigned .23 or .28 sec rotation time CTA. Coronary artery interpretability rates will be determined in both groups.


Eligibility

Min Age: 50 Years

Inclusion Criteria1

  • Subjected to cardiac CT due to known or suspected aortic valve stenosis

Exclusion Criteria5

  • Patients unable to hold their breath, deaf or visually impaired
  • Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of \<30 mL/min
  • Hemodynamic instability or cardiogenic shock, Acute pulmonary edema, Exacerbated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Pregnant and breast-feeding women
  • Patients with prior coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)
  • Patient incapable of discernment
