Most Common Appropriate Use Criteria Indications Using Both the Electronic Health Record and the Pilot Clinical Decision Support Mechanism.
AUC Indication | Total Number of Exams for which Appropriateness Could be Determined (n=276) |
---|---|
No Known Coronary Artery Disease | 133 (48.2%) |
3 – Symptomatic; intermediate pre-test probability of CAD; ECG interpretable AND able to exercise | 32 (11.6%) |
58 – Follow-up testing: new or worsening symptoms; nonobstructive CAD on coronary angiography (invasive or noninvasive) OR normal prior stress imaging study | 26 (9.4%) |
12 – Other cardiovascular conditions; newly diagnosed systolic heart failure | 21 (7.6%) |
4 – Symptomatic; newly diagnosed systolic heart failure | 11 (4.0%) |
Known Coronary Artery Disease | 143 (51.8%) |
64 – Post-revascularization (PCI or CABG); evaluation of ischemic equivalent | 101 (36.6%) |
28 – Sequential testing (≤90 days): abnormal prior test/study); obstructive CAD on prior invasive coronary angiography | 9 (3.3%) |
58 – Follow-up testing: new or worsening symptoms; Nonobstructive CAD on coronary angiography (invasive or noninvasive) OR normal prior stress imaging study | 9 (3.3%) |
62 – Follow-up testing: new or worsening symptoms; obstructive CAD on invasive coronary angiography | 8 (2.9%) |
AUC = appropriate use criteria. CABG = coronary artery bypass grafting. CAD = coronary artery disease. ECG = electrocardiogram. PCI = percutaneous coronary intervention.
