About this study

Official title: The Assessment of Novel Functional Risk Factors for the Prediction of Cardiovascular Events in Vulnerable Patients Following Acute Coronary Syndrome

The purpose of this study is to determine if testing patients for endothelial dysfunction will help identify which patients are more likely at risk to have another heart attack in the future. Study participants will undergo mental stress testing while at the same time being connected to a device that measures endothelial function via the Endopat device. These same participants will also undergo a sleep study via the Watchpat device.

Being tested
EndoPAT testing (non invasive device), WatchPAT testing (non-invasive device)
Keywords
Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS), Percutaneous Intervention (PCI), Coronary Stent (CStent), Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA), stent placement, balloon angioplasty
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • EndoPAT testing (non invasive device)Other

    Also called Itamar EndoPAT 2000

    Using the EndoPAT device, we will assess endothelial function.

  • WatchPAT testing (non-invasive device)Other

    Also called Itamar WatchPAT 200

    Using the WATCHPAT device we will assess sleep apnea.

Receives: Other: EndoPAT testing (non invasive device); Other: WatchPAT testing (non-invasive device)

What is being measured

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

  1. Unstable Angina, Myocardial Infarction, Repeat Revascularization, Cardiac Death, Stroke

    Measured: Will determine with statistical analysis after all patients have had 2 year follow-up

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Quality of Life

    Quality of Life as assessed by SF12

    Measured: 6 months post revascularization.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing EndoPAT testing (non invasive device) and WatchPAT testing (non-invasive device) in people with Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site in United States.

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 10 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Sep 2015. 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 United States. 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?

Unstable Angina, Myocardial Infarction, Repeat Revascularization, Cardiac Death, Stroke (time frame: Will determine with statistical analysis after all patients have had 2 year follow-up). 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 23 Sep 2015.
