Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if an intravenous (IV) antiplatelet medication is as safe and effective at preventing clot formation in your stented artery as compared in people who have stopped clopidogrel prior to surgery. Read more about this study

  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: We intend to assess, in a prospective observational manner, the clinical course of patients who have undergone stent implantation less than 6 months prior to a surgical procedure requiring discontinuation of clopidogrel therapy and the efficacy of intravenous antiplatelet therapy to prevent morbidity related to stent thrombosis.

Who may be able to join

  • Aged 18 years or greater, able to give consent
  • DES implantation < or = 6 months prior to admission
  • Undergoing an invasive surgical procedure that will require cessation of clopidogrel therapy for >48 hours

Who cannot join

  • Age < 18 years
  • Refusal to give consent
  • Surgical procedure performed without discontinuation of clopidogrel therapy (or < 48h of clopidogrel cessation)

About this study

Official title: Short-Term Outcomes of Perioperative Anticoagulation in the Setting of Recent Intracoronary Drug Eluting Stents

The purpose of this study is to determine if an intravenous (IV) antiplatelet medication is as safe and effective at preventing clot formation in your stented artery as compared in people who have stopped clopidogrel prior to surgery.

Read the detailed description

Stent thrombosis continues to be associated with a high rate of death or myocardial infarction. While this risk has been ameliorated through the use of the oral antiplatelet agent clopidogrel, there is a small but important subset of patients who will require discontinuation of clopidogrel due to unplanned or emergency surgery. These patients are exposed to a high risk of stent thrombosis during this time period. It is not known whether a strategy of intravenous antiplatelet therapy to "bridge" these patients is effective at preventing the morbidity related to stent thrombosis in the perioperative period. We intend to assess, in a prospective observational manner, the clinical course of patients who have undergone stent implantation less than 6 months prior to a surgical procedure requiring discontinuation of clopidogrel therapy and the efficacy of intravenous antiplatelet therapy to prevent morbidity related to stent thrombosis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stent Thrombosis, run by The Cleveland Clinic at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Mar 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: subject enrollment goals not met). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

stent thrombosis (time frame: hospitalization). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Mar 2009.
