About this study

Official title: OPTAMI (Optimierte Therapie Des Akuten Myokard-Infarktes) - Register

OPTAMI documents the characteristics of consecutive patients with acute STEMI and NSTEMI in hospital everyday-life in Germany, their acute and adjuvant medication treatment, events until discharge (e.g. mortality, stroke, re-MI), and their medication for secondary prevention at discharge.

In the follow up-period of one year, information is collected concerning events as mortality, stroke, re-MI, coronary interventions (PCI, CABG) and re-hospitalisation.

The implementation of guideline-adjusted therapy in hospital everyday-life is reviewed. The usefulness of the European standard for data acquisition in cardiology (CARDS = Cardiology Audit and Registration Standards) is evaluated.

What is being measured

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

  1. Documentation of characteristics from consecutive patients with an acute STEMI or an acute NSTEMI in hospital daily routine in Germany.

    Measured: 10/01/2005-02/01/2009

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Documentation of acute invasive and adjuvant medical therapy of STEMI and NSTEMI in hospital daily routine in Germany

    Measured: 10/01/2005-02/01/2009

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myocardial Infarction and ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction, run by Stiftung Institut fuer Herzinfarktforschung at 2 sites in Germany.

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.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Germany. 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?

Documentation of characteristics from consecutive patients with an acute STEMI or an acute NSTEMI in hospital daily routine in Germany. (time frame: 10/01/2005-02/01/2009). 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 20 Dec 2024.
