Study Outcomes: Efficiency, Cost, and Safety
| Outcomes | CCTA Group (n = 361) | MPI Group (n = 338) | p Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Time to diagnosis, h | 2.9 (2.1–4.0) | 6.2 (4.2–19.0) | <0.0001 |
| Total ED costs, $ | 2,137 (1,660–3,077) | 3,458 (2,900–4,297) | <0.0001 |
| MACE in patients with normal index test | 2/268 (0.8%) | 1/266 (0.4%) | 0.29 |
Values are median (25th to 75th percentiles) or n/N (%).
MACE = major adverse cardiac events; other abbreviations as in Tables 1 and 2.
