About this study

Official title: A Randomized Trial of Angioseal and Starclose for Hemostasis After PCI

PCI (coronary angioplasty) is a procedure performed through a catheter to open up blockages in the coronary arteries using balloons and stents for the treatment of angina or myocardial infarction. The balloon catheters and stents are moved to the coronary arteries through a "sheath" (a small tube used for placing of balloon and stent catheters in the body) placed in a major artery passing through the groin. After the PCI procedure and the removal of sheath, an "arterial closure device" is commonly placed to stop bleeding and allow you to get out of bed sooner. Although the usefulness of "closure devices" has been documented before their approval by the regulatory authorities, it is unclear if one device is better compared to other commercially available devices.

The purpose of the study is to compare the two approved arterial closure devices, "Angioseal" and "Starclose". This study will help us identify the better of the two devices to improve patient comfort after the procedure.

Read the detailed description

All patients scheduled to undergo percutaneous coronary interventions will be screened for inclusion into the study. Informed consent will be obtained and patients will be randomized to the placement of either Angioseal or a Starclose vascular closure device to achieve hemostasis after the PCI procedure. The randomization will take place after a femoral angiogram has confirmed the suitability of the femoral artery for placement of arterial closure device. All patients will be monitored for bleeding or hematoma formation for twelve hours after the procedure. Patients will be ambulated at two hours after placement of the arterial closure device. A complete blood count and a vascular ultrasound will be performed in all patients before discharge to assess blood loss and detect vascular complications such as hematoma, arteriovenous fistula or femoral artery pseudoaneurysm. A written quality of life survey will be completed before discharge and at four weeks. A nursing survey will be completed by the nursing staff to determine nurse-sensitive outcomes and nurse resource utilization.

What is being measured

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

  1. A composite of major vascular complications defined as device failure, bleeding, large hematoma, local infection etc.

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Time to hemostasis

  2. Lack of ambulation per protocol

  3. Need for additional measures to achieve hemostasis (manual pressure, femostop use, etc.)

  4. Minor vascular complication (minor bleeding, analgesic use)

  5. post procedural myocardial infarction

  6. 30 day incidence of death, MI, TVR

  7. Patient discomfort

  8. Quality of life measurements at discharge and four weeks

  9. Nurse resource utilization at discharge

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing closure device placement in people with Arterial Hemostasis After Coronary Intervention, run by Unity Health Toronto at 1 site in Canada.

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 8 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 29 Jan 2007. 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 Canada. 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

A composite of major vascular complications defined as device failure, bleeding, large hematoma, local infection etc.. 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 29 Jan 2007.
