Malmö, Sweden - Acarix, a leader in non-invasive cardiac diagnostics, is pleased to announce the publication of a new peer-reviewed study in PharmacoEconomics - Open demonstrating that the CADScor® System is a cost-effective diagnostic tool for evaluating low-risk chest pain patients in U.S. emergency departments.
The independent study, conducted by researchers from the Baim Institute for Clinical Research and leading academic hospitals in Boston, utilized a comprehensive economic model to compare the CADScor® System with traditional noninvasive cardiac imaging methods. Results showed that a "CADScor-First" strategy could lead to substantial cost savings-estimated between $7.3 million and $15.3 million per 10,000 patients-without compromising patient safety.
"This study reinforces what we at Acarix have long known - that the CADScor® System has the potential to revolutionize the early assessment of chest pain. By delivering fast, reliable results to safely rule out significant coronary artery disease, it helps reduce unnecessary testing and alleviates the burden on emergency departments," said Aamir Mahmood, CEO of Acarix.
The CADScor® System is FDA-cleared and uses advanced high fidelity acoustics and proprietary algorithms to assess the risk of obstructive coronary artery disease in under 10 minutes at the point of care.
