About this study

The measurements of the natriuretic peptide are useful and beneficial for risk stratification irrespective of the cause during admission time or during hospital stay course. the aim of the study is to Assessment of the role of Brain natriuretic peptide in diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome . Evaluation of the relation of Brain natriuretic peptide to the severity and occurrence of complications in acute coronary syndrome .

Read the detailed description

Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is regarded as one of the important leading causes of disability and death across the globe.

Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) applies to a variety of events reporting ischemia, ranging from stable angina without myocardial necrosis to ST -segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The need for prevention and detection of coronary vascular disease as early as possible by using newer and more cost effective tools is suggested . For risk stratification in patients with ACS, serial ECG monitoring and cardiac biomarkers measurement are needed as part of the diagnostic workup. B-type natriuretic peptide is synthesized as a high molecular weight precursor pro-brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) which is cleaved to release BNP and the amino-terminal fragment, N-terminal pro (NT-pro) BNP. Both peptides are released from the cardiac ventricles in response to the increased wall stress and hence its levels may indicate ventricular strain BNP is believed to have its role as natriuretic hormone and vasodilation. Among other effects are inhibition of the Renin Angiotensin-Aldosterone system(RAAS), and sympathetic nervous system. After an ischemic occurrence, BNP levels peak in 14 to 40 hours .

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Coronary Syndromes, run by Assiut 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 4 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Dec 2024. 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?

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 Mennat-Allah Gamal kamel Mohamed, resident doctor (+201098695613, mennagamalkamel@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Brain natriuretic peptide level in blood (time frame: baseline). 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 NCT06734416, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 16 Dec 2024.
