About this study

This is a cross-sectional pilot study to assess coronary artery disease with minimal invasive techniques in patients with asymptomatic troponin elevation after noncardiac surgery. The primary objective is to quantify coronary artery disease, as determined by coronary CT and MR, as a cause of postoperative myocardial injury. The secondary objective is to correlate coronary calciumscore to postoperative levels of troponin.

Being tested
Minimal invasive cardiac imaging

    Coronary artery disease with luminal narrowing > 50 % in one or more major epicardial vessels by CCTA.

    Measured: During hospital admission

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Coronary calcium score

    Agatston coronary calcium score

    Measured: During hospital admission

  2. Extent of coronary artery atherosclerosis

    Presence and extent of coronary artery atherosclerosis as measured with coronary CCTA

    Measured: During hospital admission

  3. Minimal myocardial injury

    Minimal myocardial injury measured by late gadolinium enhancement on CMR.

    Measured: During hospital admission

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Minimal invasive cardiac imaging in people with Myocardium; Injury and Coronary Artery Disease, run by UMC Utrecht at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 4 inclusion and 13 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Dec 2014. 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 Netherlands. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Hendrik M. Nathoe, MD PhD (+31 88 755 7273, H.M.Nathoe@umcutrecht.nl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Coronary artery disease (time frame: During hospital admission). 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 3 Dec 2014.
