Overview
The GAMEFILM Registry is a post-market, multi-center, data collection study assessing the presence of CAD in NFL alumni.
Detailed description
The GAMEFILM Registry is a post-market, multi-center, data collection study assessing the prevalence and severity of CAD in NFL alumni. A retired NFL player is defined as any former player who made either a practice squad or an active NFL roster. Approximately 300 participants will be included from approximately 20 sites in the US.
Interventions
- Diagnostic test Coronary computed tomography angiography
Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA) is a non-invasive medical imaging test that uses X-rays to create detailed 3D images of the heart and its blood vessels, specifically the coronary arteries.
Primary outcome measures
- Participants with CAD [Time frame: 24 hours from the time CCTA was taken]
Secondary outcome measures (2)
- Participants with physiologically significant CAD [Time frame: 24 hours from the time CCTA was taken]
- Participants with high coronary plaque burden [Time frame: 24 hours from the time CCTA was taken]
