Risk calculators and risk factors for Coronary heart disease CT |
Clinical practice guidelines address the usage of coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA)[1][2].
Coronary calcium scores
The Agatston scores are:
- 0 No identifiable disease
- 1 to 99 Mild disease
- 100 to 399 Moderate disease
- ≥400 Severe disease
In asymptomatic patients
Clinical practice guidelines
In 2018, the United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) guideline[3] and evidence report[4] concluded:
- "the current evidence is insufficient to assess the balance of benefits and harms of using the ABI, hsCRP level, or CAC score in risk assessment for CVD in asymptomatic adults to prevent CVD events"
The 2018 AHA/ACC/AACVPR/AAPA/ABC/ACPM/ADA/AGS/APhA/ASPC/NLA/PCNA Guideline on the Management of Blood Cholesterol concluded[5]:
- "In adults 40 to 75 years of age without diabetes mellitus and with LDL-C levels ≥70 mg/dL to 189 mg/dL (≥1.8–4.9 mmol/L), at a 10-year ASCVD risk of ≥7.5% to 19.9%, if a decision about statin therapy is uncertain, consider measuring CAC."
Coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA)
The role of coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) versus functional testing is not clear:
- The SCOT-HEART trial in 2015 did not find clear statistical evidence of benefit although there was a trend towards less cardiac outcomes among patients who received CCTA[6]
- The PROMISE trial in 2015 did not find benefit[7]
- A meta-analysis in 2018 that included the SCOT-HEART and PROMISE trials found no benefit[8]
- Subsequent publication of longer term follow-up of the SCOT-HEART trial found cardiac benefit[9] The benefit may be in part due to "During follow-up, patients assigned to CTA were more likely than patients assigned to standard care alone to have commenced preventive therapies (19.4% [402 patients] vs. 14.7% [305 patients]; odds ratio, 1.40; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.19 to 1.65)." This is larger than the difference in clinical outcomes, "2.3% [48 patients] in the CTA group vs. 3.9% [81 patients] in the standard-care group; hazard ratio, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.41 to 0.84; P=0.004."
CCTA may best benefit patients with intermediate risk[10][11].
Noninvasive fractional flow reserve
Estimation of fractional flow reserve using coronary computed tomographic angiography (FFRCT) did not reduce cardiac events over one year[12].
