The most common type of cardiological condition is coronary artery disease (CAD) and it occurs when blood supply to the heart is narrowed or blocked. CAD can cause minor conditions such as angina or arrythmia, or it can cause more serious conditions like a heart attack or complete heart failure.
Research has shown that, in emergency rooms, acute chest pain is commonly misdiagnosed in specific patient populations, resulting in fatal outcomes1. The reasons for missed acute myocardial infarction (heart attacks) have been reported to include incorrect ECG interpretation and failure to order appropriate diagnostic tests2.
In patients with acute CAD, the timely delivery of care is critical for favorable outcomes, and it’s why a quick and efficient second opinion provides reassurance, it allows a timely manner of treatment.
