Limited incremental value of growth differentiation factor 15 in the initial evaluation of low and intermediate risk acute chest pain patients

In patients with acute chest pain but without acute myocardial infarction, GDF-15 did not substantially improve the identification of obstructive CAD or need for revascularization within 30 days and 12 months. Our findings question the clinical usefulness of GDF-15 for prognostication of low-risk patients with acute chest pain.

Abstract

In patients with acute chest pain but without acute myocardial infarction, GDF-15 did not substantially improve the identification of obstructive CAD or need for revascularization within 30 days and 12 months. Our findings question the clinical usefulness of GDF-15 for prognostication of low-risk patients with acute chest pain.
