Trial summary

The freedom of choice in medicine is based on the physician's ability to treat their patients with the best available therapy. The armamentarium for percutaneous intervention is frequently determined on the basis of subjective criteria and the experience of the interventional cardiologist. Read more about this study

About this study

The freedom of choice in medicine is based on the physician's ability to treat their patients with the best available therapy. The armamentarium for percutaneous intervention is frequently determined on the basis of subjective criteria and the experience of the interventional cardiologist. The evaluation of devices used in coronary intervention, especially angiography and its clinical outcomes, has rarely been investigated; the exceptions are studies on stents. Therefore, the freedom of choice for the interventional cardiologist has been challenged, especially because of cost restrictions. This way this study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of a device of a single brand in performing percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (guide catheters, guidewires, balloons, and stents) in selected patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Coronary stent - Tsunami in people with Atherosclerotic Heart Disease and Coronary Heart Disease, run by Hospital Sao Lucas da PUCRS.

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 5 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 Jul 2012. 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?

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?

Occurrence of: need to change the materials during the procedure (angioplasty). (time frame: 12 months). 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 4 Jul 2012.
