The predictive model is based on 3903 patients free of CAD and heart failure and suspected of angina, who were referred to a single, large, urban university hospital for assessment in 2012–15.

Value

A numeric value representing the patient's PTP for obstructive CAD based on the 2019 Reeh et. al. clinical model.
