About this study

This study will compare the microcirculatory resistance (IMR) of infarct-related artery (IRA) in patients who underwent immediate versus deferred stenting during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute myocardial infarction.

Read the detailed description

Primary PCI with immediate stenting (IS) is the current standard of reperfusion strategy for STEMI. However, it is thought that IS may cause additional myocardial injury by increasing distal embolization of clot and atheromatous plaque debris. Only about 35% of patients without cardiogenic shock can achieve optimal myocardial tissue perfusion at the microvascular level, even after restoration of epicardial coronary artery patency. IS in highly pro-thrombotic and inflammatory milieu of IRA during primary PCI would increase distal embolization of clot and atheromatous plaque debris, and provoke the inflammation process, so deferred stenting after a cooling down period of IRA for several days, have a potential to mitigate or prevent microvascular obstruction (MVO). Among several methods to evaluate MVO after STEMI, IMR has been well known as an good indicator of MVO and strong predictor for short and long term clinical outcomes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Index of microcirculatory resistance of infarct-related artery

    Measured by pressure and temperature sensors- tipped guide wire

    Measured: 3 to 5 days after primary reperfusion (TIMI 3 flow achievement) in both groups

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The rate of urgent revascularization

    Measured: During index hospitalization (intraoperative)

  2. Major bleeding

    Defined as TIMI bleeding criteria

    Measured: During index hospitalization (intraoperative)

  3. Major adverse cardiac events

    Death, myocardial infarction, unplanned target vessel revascularization or CHF admission

    Measured: One- year after primary reperfusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Myocardial Infarction, run by Sejong General Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 7 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 8 Aug 2017. 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 South Korea. 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 Hyun Jong Lee, MD (82-32-340-1812, untouchables@sejongh.co.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Index of microcirculatory resistance of infarct-related artery (time frame: 3 to 5 days after primary reperfusion (TIMI 3 flow achievement) in both groups). 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 NCT03238508, 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 8 Aug 2017.
