Trial summary

Recurrent myocardial infarctions (reinfarctions) can be due to recurrence at the original treatment site, the presence of untreated lesions elsewhere, or in progressive lesions. There are scarce published data describing the localization (affected vessel/s) and severity (NSTE-ACS/STE-ACS) of reinfarction(s) compared… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pattern of Repeat Cardiovascular Events During Follow-up After First Diagnosed Event-MI - PRECLUDE-MI - A Retrospective Cohort Study

Recurrent myocardial infarctions (reinfarctions) can be due to recurrence at the original treatment site, the presence of untreated lesions elsewhere, or in progressive lesions. There are scarce published data describing the localization (affected vessel/s) and severity (NSTE-ACS/STE-ACS) of reinfarction(s) compared to the index MI (e.g proportion of recurrent infarctions in the previously diseased vessel) in large unselected patient populations. If reinfarctions are generally more severe than index MI/recurrent MI(s), this might have implications for choice of treatment and treatment length.

Moreover, data from unselected patient populations on the overall incidence pattern/rate of patients experiencing multiple reinfarctions is sparse. Patients who experience multiple ischemic events may be a subset of patients who are poor responders to therapy. There is also a possibility that patients with multiple events are less likely to have received evidence-based therapy such as coronary stenting, novel and more effective antithrombotics and modern lipid lowering treatment for the initial event. Poor adherence to secondary prevention measures (e.g. low compliance to medication and adherence to cardiac rehabilitation programs) may also increase the risk of recurrent events.

Therefore identification of the baseline characteristics, including treatment decision strategies in the setting of a myocardial infarction, among such subjects may allow modifications of the clinical management strategy prior to the occurrence of subsequent ischemic events. Such modifications could include providing a more intensive or additional therapy in certain patient groups or find strategies to improve patient adherence and drug compliance.

A patient with reinfarctions requires more hospitalizations, treatments, laboratory tests, and out-patient visits, resulting in overall increased costs. From the patient perspective, recurrent events result in higher mortality and worsened quality of life.

Read the detailed description

This study will combine the SWEDEHEART registries RIKS-HIA (Registry of Information and Knowledge about Swedish Heart Intensive care Admissions), SCAAR (Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry) and SEPHIA (the registry for secondary prevention following coronary intensive care); and the Swedish National Population Registry (to obtain data regarding vital status and date of death), Swedish Cause of Death Register (to separate fatal from non-fatal MI), the Swedish Patient Registry (to obtain data on prior medical history) and the Swedish Drug Registry (to obtain prescribed medical treatment and filled prescriptions).

The RIKS-HIA database covers all acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients treated at heart intensive care units in Sweden and SCAAR entails all PCI procedures performed across all centers in Sweden.

In this study the investigators will include patients with first time ever of NSTE-ACS and STE-ACS and receiving care at cardiac intensive care units and entered in the SWEDEHEART registry between 1 July 2006 and 31 December 2014. Baseline and in-hospital characteristics will be obtained, including peri-procedural anti-thrombotic treatments.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myocardial Infarction, run by Uppsala University.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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 5 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Pattern of repeat cardiovascular events during follow-up after first diagnosed event-MI. (time frame: max 8 years follow-up). 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 NCT03099395, 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 5 Apr 2017.
