Utilization of diagnostic resources and costs in patients with suspected cardiac chest pain.
Vester MPM, Eindhoven DC, Bonten TN, Wagenaar H, Holthuis HJ, Schalij MJ, de Grooth GJ, van Dijkman PRM
Aims: Non-acute chest pain is a common complaint and can be caused by various conditions. With the rising healthcare expenditures of today, it is necessary to use our healthcare resources effectively. This study aims to give insight into the diagnostic effort and costs for patients with non-acute chest pain. Methods and results: Financial data of patients without a cardiac history from four hospitals (January 2012-October 2018), who were registered with the national diagnostic code 'no card...

Comparison of guidelines for diagnosing suspected stable angina and the additional value of the calcium score.
Rijlaarsdam-Hermsen D, van Domburg RT, Deckers JW, Kuijpers D, van Dijkman PRM
Background The performance of current diagnostic algorithms of the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA), National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and European Society of Cardiology (ESC) in patients with stable chest pain and coronary artery calcium (CAC) remains a matter of debate. We compared their merits in patients with CAC and investigated the additional value of the CAC score to improve diagnostic accuracy and risk stratification. Methods and...

Screening for cardiovascular disease risk using traditional risk factor assessment or coronary artery calcium scoring: the ROBINSCA trial.
van der Aalst CM, Denissen SJAM, Vonder M, Gratama JWC, Adriaansen HJ, Kuijpers D, Vliegenthart R, van Lennep JER, van der Harst P, Braam RL, van Dijkman PRM, van Bruggen R, Oudkerk M, de Koning HJ
Aims: Screening for a high cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk followed by preventive treatment can potentially reduce coronary heart disease-related morbidity and mortality. ROBINSCA (Risk Or Benefit IN Screening for CArdiovascular disease) is a population-based randomized controlled screening trial that investigates the effectiveness of CVD screening in asymptomatic participants using the Systematic COronary Risk Evaluation (SCORE) model or coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring. This study descr...

Stress-Only Adenosine CMR Improves Diagnostic Yield in Stable Symptomatic Patients With Coronary Artery Calcium.
Rijlaarsdam-Hermsen D, Lo-Kioeng-Shioe M, van Domburg RT, Deckers JW, Kuijpers D, van Dijkman PRM
Objectives: This study assessed whether adenosine stress-only perfusion cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) following a positive coronary artery calcium (CAC) score improved the diagnostic yield of invasive coronary angiography (CAG) in patients with stable chest pain. The study also established the association between positive CAC scores and stress-induced myocardial ischemia. Background: The diagnostic yield of catheterization among patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) is low. Im...

Prognostic value of the coronary artery calcium score in suspected coronary artery disease: a study of 644 symptomatic patients.
Rijlaarsdam-Hermsen D, Lo-Kioeng-Shioe MS, Kuijpers D, van Domburg RT, Deckers JW, van Dijkman PRM
AIM:The long-term value of coronary artery calcium (CAC) scanning has not been studied extensively in symptomatic patients, but was evaluated by us in 644 consecutive patients referred for stable chest pain. METHODS:We excluded patients with a history of cardiovascular disease and with a CAC score of zero. CAC scanning was done with a 16-row MDCT scanner. Endpoints were: (a) overall mortality, (b) mortality or non-fatal myocardial infarction and (c) the composite of mortality, myocardial infarct...

Caseous calcification of the mitral annulus assessed by multimodality imaging.
Sala ML, van Dijkman PRM, Kuijpers D
Physicians may not be familiar with caseous calcification of the mitral annulus. It can therefore easily be mistaken for other conditions including tumors. In the appropriate clinical context, by using multimodality imaging, a correct diagnosis can be made, and patient concern or even unnecessary surgery can be avoided.

Randomized trial of one-hour sodium bicarbonate vs standard periprocedural saline hydration in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing cardiovascular contrast procedures.
Kooiman J, de Vries JPM, Van der Heyden J, Sijpkens YWJ, van Dijkman PRM, Wever JJ, van Overhagen H, Vahl AC, Aarts N, Verberk-Jonkers IJAM, Brulez HFH, Hamming JF, van der Molen AJ, Cannegieter SC, Putter H, van den Hout WB, Kilicsoy I, Rabelink TJ, Huisman MV
Background: Guidelines advise periprocedural saline hydration for prevention of contrast induced-acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). We analysed whether 1-hour sodium bicarbonate hydration administered solely prior to intra-arterial contrast exposure is non-inferior to standard periprocedural saline hydration in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients undergoing elective cardiovascular diagnostic or interventional contrast procedures. Methods: We performed an open-label multicentre non-inferiority trial...

Disagreement between splenic switch-off and myocardial T1-mapping after caffeine intake.
Kuijpers D, van Dijk R, van Assen M, Kaandorp TAM, van Dijkman PRM, Vliegenthart R, van der Harst P, Oudkerk M
Caffeine is an adenosine receptor antagonist and a possible cause of inadequate stress perfusion. Splenic switch-off (SSO) and splenic rest-stress T1-mapping have been proposed as indicators of stress adequacy during perfusion cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). We compared myocardial rest-stress T1-mapping with SSO and splenic rest-stress T1-mapping in patients with and without recent coffee intake. We analyzed 344 consecutive patients suspected of myocardial ischemia with adenosine perfusion CMR...

Accurate late gadolinium enhancement prediction by early T1- based quantitative synthetic mapping.
van Dijk R, Kuijpers D, Kaandorp TAM, van Dijkman PRM, Vliegenthart R, van der Harst P, Oudkerk M
Objectives: Early synthetic gadolinium enhancement (ESGE) imaging from post-contrast T1 mapping after adenosine stress-perfusion cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) was compared to conventional late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging for assessing myocardial scar. Methods: Two hundred fourteen consecutive patients suspected of myocardial ischaemia were referred for stress-perfusion CMR. Myocardial infarct volume was quantified on a per-subsegment basis in both synthetic (2-3 min post-gadolinium)...
