About this study

Official title: Cardiovascular, Renal and Metabolic Profile in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) Included in the Romanian National Programme of Primary Percutaneous Revascularisation - a Single Center Observational Study

Aims

  • assessment of renal artery stenosis incidence in consecutive AMI patients included in the Romanian National Programme of Primary Percutaneous Revascularisation;
  • generating a cardio-renal-metabolic profile in patients with renal atherosclerotic disease;
  • creating a local registry (based on European CARDS percutaneous interventional registries) which also includes renal, metabolic and vascular data;
  • reporting long-term follow-up data on major cardiac adverse events (MACE) in the study group.
Read the detailed description

Gathered data:

  • descriptive general demographic data;
  • previous pathologies (ischemic heart disease, peripheral arterial disease, stroke, heart failure, previous percutaneous coronary interventions, coronary artery bypass grafting - CABG, known renal disease), cardiovascular risk factors (age, weight, height, abdominal perimeter, body mass index, smoking, sedentariness, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidaemia);
  • routine biological data and specific non-genetic biomarkers;
  • information regarding primary PCI (less than 12 hours of ischemic symptoms): coronarographic details, type of used stent, periprocedural specific complications, final TIMI - thrombolysis in myocardial infarction - flow);
  • echocardiography at admission (LVEF);
  • metabolic data (obtained from body composition monitoring) - body water, body fat tissue;
  • renal arteries angiographic details (two independent operators evaluate stenosis based on a predefined scale);
  • renal dimensions;
  • measurement of arterial stiffness through Sphigmocore pulsed-wave-velocity (24 hrs post-procedural, 2 velocities: carotid - femoral and carotid - radial);
  • heart rate variability;
  • in-hospital and one month follow-up MACE;
Being tested
renal artery angiography, coronarography, coronary angioplasty, pulse wave velocity measurement, body composition monitoring
Keywords
acute myocardial infarction, renal artery stenosis
Medical subject headings
Hypertension, Renovascular, Renal Artery Obstruction, Myocardial Infarction

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • renal artery angiographyProcedure or surgery

    preprocedural renal arteriogram is obtained after sterile preparation and draping of the patient, conscious sedation, infiltration of local anesthetic (lidocaine solution) at the femoral access site, placement of an arterial sheath in the femoral artery, and advancement of the renal guide catheter over a 0.035-in guidewire under fluoroscopic guidance. After the tip of the guide catheter is positioned at the ostium of the renal artery, an angiogram is obtained. After the guidewire is removed, the proximal end of the catheter is connected to a manifold, and 4-8 mL of contrast is manually injected during cineangiographic recording. An intravenous antithrombotic agent, usually heparin, is administered before the clinician proceeds with angioplasty.

  • coronarographyProcedure or surgery

  • coronary angioplastyProcedure or surgery

    Also called pPCI

  • pulse wave velocity measurementProcedure or surgery

    Also called PWV

    is a measure of arterial stiffness with Sphigmocore device.

  • body composition monitoringProcedure or surgery

    Also called BCM

    using Fresenius device

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hypertension, Renovascular and Renal Artery Stenosis, run by Grigore T. Popa University of Medicine and Pharmacy at 1 site in Romania.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 13 Jan 2016. 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 Romania. 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 Alexandru Burlacu, MD (alburlacu@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

renal artery stenosis incidence (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02388139, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 13 Jan 2016.
