What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE)

    Measured: in the phase of hospital stay, up to 30 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Length of hospital stay

    Measured: in the phase of hospital stay, up to 30 days

  2. ST (S- and T-wave) segment decreasing

    Measured: within an hour after primary percutaneous coronary intervention

  3. left ventricular function

    left ventricular ejection fraction in % and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter in mm, both are evaluated by echocardiography to assess the left ventricular function

    Measured: in the phase of hospital stay, up to 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Air Pollution and Acute Myocardial Infarction, run by Nanjing Medical University at 1 site in China.

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 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record lists 1 site in China. 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?

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?

Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) (time frame: in the phase of hospital stay, up to 30 days). 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 Jul 2016.
