About this study

Official title: Prediction of Acute Myocardial Infarction With Artificial Neural Networks in Patients With Nondiagnostic Electrocardiogram

prediction of MI in patients with chest pain and nondiagnostic ECG was done in 2 weeks

Read the detailed description

Myocardial infarction remains one the leading causes of mortality and morbidity and involves a high cost of care. Early prediction can be helpful in preventing the development of myocardial infarction with appropriate diagnosis and treatment. Artificial neural networks have opened new horizons in learning about the natural history of diseases and predicting cardiac disease.

Methods: A total of 935 cardiac patients with chest pain and nondiagnostic electrocardiogram (ECG) were enrolled and followed for 2 weeks in two groups based on the appearance of myocardial infarction. Two types of data were used for all patients: nominal (clinical data) and quantitative (ECG findings). Two different artificial neural networks - radial basis function (RBF) and multi-layer perceptron (MLP) - were used.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ANN prediction of myocardial infarction in people with Myocardial Infarction and Artificial Neural Network, run by Shiraz University of Medical Sciences.

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 4 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 6 Jun 2013. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

myocardial infarction (time frame: 2 weeks). 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 6 Jun 2013.
