About this study

Official title: A Prospective Observational Study of Patients Admitted to a Cardiac Intensive Care Unit Due to Acute CardioVascular Disease.

This is a registry of the patients that are admitted to CICU and treated by the Scientific Staff of the 2nd Department of Cardiology, due to an acute cardiovascular disease (acute coronary syndrome, acute heart failure, arrhythmia, pulmonary embolism, cardiac tamponade etc) in order to investigate the clinical characteristics of the patients, their outcome, identify the factors that could predict the in-hospital mortality and compare the results with the predicted by established risk scores. Furthermore, the study will investigate the one-year mortality and also the major adverse cardiac events (MACE - acute myocardial infarction, stroke, or cardiovascular death) will be measured.

Read the detailed description

For every patient that will be enrolled to the study, information from the medical record will be collected, as long as he/she has provided a signed consent form after being fully informed of the study and its objectives. In case the patient cannot decide on his/her own, e.g. intubated patients, an informed consent form must be acquired by a relative or legal representative. Only the data that will be considered necessary for scientific reasons will be acquired: general and demographic information, medical information like the personal and family history, the diagnostic tests performed and the treatments or interventions that took place. The patients will not have to do anything further or undergo any additional visits or medical exams apart from those indicated; they will not receive any extra treatment (because of their participation to the study) beyond what they would receive for their condition according to the established practice so far. Furthermore, the doctor will not change or withdraw any treatment that the patients would normally receive. The patients' medical care will continue normally under the CICU doctors' supervision.

The participants will be monitored during their hospitalization in the CICU, during their hospitalization in the 2nd Department of Cardiology of the UHI after their discharge from CICU, as well as for the next 1-year in the Outpatients Clinic; if the latter is not feasible (in case of disability or distance) they will be contacted through telephone interviews.

    Also called no further interventions

    all patients admitted in the CICU will be enrolled in the study provided they give their informed consent.

What is being measured

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

  1. In-hospital mortality

    In-hospital all-cause mortality of patients with acute cardiovascular disease that require treatment in a CICU

    Measured: During the index admission (up to 8 weeks)

  2. 30-day mortality

    30-day all-cause mortality of patients with acute cardiovascular disease that require treatment in a CICU

    Measured: 30 days after discharge from hospital

  3. 1-year mortality

    1-year all-cause mortality of patients with acute cardiovascular disease that require treatment in a CICU

    Measured: 1-year after discharge from hospital

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. In-hospital major adverse cardiac events (MACE)

    In-hospital MACE of patients with acute cardiovascular disease that require treatment in a CICU

    Measured: During the index admission (up to 8 weeks)

  2. 30-day major adverse cardiac events (MACE)

    30-day MACE of patients with acute cardiovascular disease that require treatment in a CICU

    Measured: 30 days after discharge from hospital

  3. 1-year major adverse cardiac events (MACE)

    1-year MACE of patients with acute cardiovascular disease that require treatment in a CICU

    Measured: 1-year after discharge from hospital

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiogenic Shock and Acute Decompensated Heart Failure, run by University Hospital, Ioannina at 1 site in Greece.

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 5 inclusion and 0 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Oct 2023. 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 Greece. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Katerina K Naka, MD, PhD (+30 26510 99111 ext. 039, anaka@uoi.gr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

In-hospital mortality (time frame: During the index admission (up to 8 weeks)). 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 13 Oct 2023.
