About this study

Official title: Prior Statin Use and Risk of Heart Failure, Acute Lung Edema and Malignant Arrhythmia in Indonesian Post-Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients

This study aims to evaluate the effect of statin for primary prevention, towards lowering the incidence of heart failure, acute lung edema, malignant arrhythmia and death in ACS patients.

Read the detailed description

Adult patients (≥ 18 years of age) with acute coronary syndrome which are diagnosed under ICD-10 coding of I24.9 without a prior history of heart failure, acute lung edema and arrhythmia were included in this study. The inclusion criteria are patients with primary diagnosis of I24.9 and with a complete record of prior medical and treatment history, electrocardiographic findings, cardiac marker results and outcomes. Participants were grouped into 2 groups - statin and non-statin based on prior history of statin use prior to ACS. Diagnosis of ACS was made based on clinical, electrocardiographic and cardiac marker findings found in the medical record.

Data such as age, sex, ethnic, education, prior medical and treatment history, electrocardiographic and cardiac enzyme results as well as outcomes were collected from the patients' medical records. Outcomes of interest were defined as either concomitant heart failure, acute lung edema, malignant arrhythmia, mortality or combinations of them as diagnosed in the medical records. Heart failure is defined based on echocardiographic findings from the medical records. Acute Lung Edema is defined based on medical records or reported clinical findings of lung edema - rhonchi reported in 1/3 of the lungs with oxygen saturation <90%. Whereas malignant arrhythmia is defined as the presence of ventricular tachycardia (VT) or ventricular fibrillation (VF).

What is being measured

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

  1. Heart Failure

    Based on echocardiographic findings from the medical records

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  3. Acute Lung Edema

    Based on medical records or reported clinical findings of lung edema - rhonchi reported in 1/3 of the lungs with oxygen saturation <90%.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Coronary Syndrome and Acute Pulmonary Edema, run by Tarumanagara University at 1 site in Indonesia.

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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Sep 2018. 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 Indonesia. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Heart Failure (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 12 Sep 2018.
