About this trial
The goal of this multi-center observational study is to learn about the effectiveness of magnetocardiography in rapid and accurate identification of ischemia in patients with suspected NSTE-ACS.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Age 18 years or older;
Patients with symptoms of myocardial ischemia such as angina who are suspected to NSTE-ACS and proposed to undergo CAG or coronary CTA;
Signed informed consent.
Disqualifiers
Patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI);
Patients with Non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy, or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, or moderate or severe valvular disease;
Patients with Hemodynamic instability (systolic blood pressure<90 mmHg, or who requires vasoactive drugs), or patients with tachyarrhythmia, Ⅱ degree atrioventricular block and above that have not returned to normal;
Patients who have severe renal abnormality with eGFR <30 ml/min, or patients who are on dialysis;

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Efficacy of MCG to detect coronary ischemia in patients with suspected NSTE-ACS
the sensitivity and specificity of MCG to detect coronary ischemia (defined as stenosis ≥ 90% or fractional flow reserve ≤0.8)
Secondary outcomes
Efficacy of MCG in identifying coronary ischemia in patients with normal ECG.
A normal ECG is determined by two cardiologists with over five years of working experience. If there is any objection, the decision shall be made by a third cardiologist of the same qualifications or above. Sensitivity, specificity, and area under ROC curve (AUC) are performed for assessing the efficacy.
The time saved by using MCG in the detection of NSTEMI compared to troponin
The time for the detection of NSTEMI is from the timepoint of first medical contact to the timepoint of MCG report showing ischemia or the first report of troponin that over the 99th percentile of the Upper reference limit (URL).
Efficacy of MCG in evaluating the severity of coronary lesions.
The severity of coronary lesions is determined by using CAG/CTA and fractional flow reserve. Severe degree is defined as ≥90% stenosis of at least one main vessel or branch vessel with diameter ≥2mm. Moderate degree is defined as 50%-89% stenosis and fractional flow reserve ≤0.8. Mild degree is defined as \<50% stenosis and fractional flow reserve ≤0.8, or stenosis 50%-89% and fractional flow reserve\> 0.8. Sensitivity, specificity, and area under ROC curve (AUC) are performed for assessing the efficacy.
Efficacy of MCG in early stratification of patients with suspected NSTE-ACS
For early stratification measurement, patients with suspected NSTE-ACS are assessed by 30d (from enrollment) MACE and classified as high or low risk. Sensitivity, specificity, and area under ROC curve (AUC) are performed for assessing the efficacy of MCG.
