Patient Acceptance of CTA/CTP and CCA

Values are given as arithmetic mean ± SD.The scale used for preparation and information prior to the test comfort, and overall satisfaction was: 1 = very good, 2 = good, 3 = moderate, 4 = poor, 5 = very poor. Concern was rated as: 1 = no concern, 2 = little, 3 = moderate, 4 = intense, 5 = very intense. Helplessness was rated as: 1 = no helplessness, 2 = little, 3 = moderate, 4 = intense, 5 = very intense.The ratings for patient preparation, concern, comfort, and overall satisfaction were comparable for CTA/CTP and CCA. Only the ratings for helplessness were significantly different between the two tests; here patients felt significantly less helpless during CTA/CTP than during CCA (* using sign test).Patient Acceptance of CTA/CTP and CCA
