Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: patients who presented to the hospital within 12 hours of the onset of chest pain who were admitted to the coronary intensive care unit (ICU) with the diagnosis of acute STEMI and who were administered primary PCI. Having acute STEMI for the first time was stipulated for inclusion in the study.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with chest pain that continued longer than 30 minutes and with ≥ 2 mm ST elevation in ECG at least in two adjacent derivations were diagnosed with an acute STEMI. In all patients, at least two-fold increases were seen in serum CK-MB levels compared to normal values.Having acute STEMI for the first time was stipulated for inclusion in the study.

Who cannot join

  • Subjects with known allergies to aspirin and clopidogrel, inadequate echocardiographic images, malignancy, a previous cerebrovascular event, renal dysfunction (creatine level > 2.5 mg/dl), a previous MI, or a history of cardiogenic shock as well as those who refused to participate in the study were excluded.

What is being measured

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

  1. Major Adverse Cardiac Events

    the presence of a fQRS at 48 hours after primary PCI is a significant parameter in predicting adverse cardiovascular events;

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Q Wave and QRS distortion for predicting major adverse cardiac events

    the presence of a fQRS is a more sensitive and specific parameter in predicting development of adverse cardiovascular events than Q wave and QRS distortion; and compared to Q wave, fQRS correlated more significantly with the presence of a scar

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Fragmented QRS and Primary PCI, run by Bursa Postgraduate Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Jun 2010. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Major Adverse Cardiac Events. 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 NCT01136837, 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?
