Group 2 names the comparator: usual care.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | HEART Care | HEART care: usual care, complemented by calculation of the HEART score and following the recommended policy.~During 14 months, patients presenting with chest pain to the ED of participating hospitals were included in the study. First, all hospitals applied 'usual care' to all patients, i.e. risk assessment and subsequent management without application of the HEART score. Then, during a 14 month period, each 1,5 month 1 randomly allocated hospital sequentially started to apply the HEART score in all chest pain patients (intervention period); during this intervention period patients with a HEART score 0-3 were advised not be admitted to the hospital, and patients with a HEART score above 3 were advised to be treated according to current guidelines. | 5 | 1,821 | EG001 |
| Group 2 | Usual Care | usual care was defined as daily practice of the cardiologist or attending emergency doctor, in order to diagnose a patient with chest pain. In this period attending doctors assess the risk of a patient with chest pain, based on his/hers experience and various criteria (for example described in European Society of Cardiology Guidelines for the management of acute coronary syndromes in patients presenting without persistent ST-segment elevation, without a formal risk score). | 9 | 1,827 | EG000 |
