Trial summary

Myocardial injury occurs after percutaneous coronary intervention due to micro emboli, ischemia-reperfusion injury or side branch occlusion. 3 cycles of ischemic preconditioning has been shown to be useful in preventing myocardial injury but it is not suitable to perform it especially in ad hoc interventions.

About this study

Official title: Effect of One Cycle Remote Ischemic Preconditioning on Myocardial Injury After Percutaneous Coronary Interventions in Patients With Stable Coronary Artery Disease

Myocardial injury occurs after percutaneous coronary intervention due to micro emboli, ischemia-reperfusion injury or side branch occlusion. 3 cycles of ischemic preconditioning has been shown to be useful in preventing myocardial injury but it is not suitable to perform it especially in ad hoc interventions. In this study the investigators aim is to show whether one cycle remote ischemic preconditioning will be enough to prevent myocardial injury during percutaneous coronary intervention.

Read the detailed description

About in one third of elective percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) troponin release occurs showing myocardial necrosis. And it has been shown that myocardial necrosis due to coronary interventions has also adverse effects on long term prognosis.

Beneficial effects of of ischemic preconditioning in elective PCI and in coronary artery bypass surgery has been shown in several studies. In most of the trials 3 cycles of ischemia was performed, but this is time consuming and it's not suitable to apply it, in ad-hoc interventions. The investigators found one study showing that one cycle will also be enough to prevent troponin elevation after elective PCI.

The investigators aim was also to show that one cycle preconditioning performed just before coronary intervention will also be useful in preventing myocardial necrosis due to elective PCI.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing remote ischemic preconditioning in people with Myocardial Ischemia and Ischemic Reperfusion Injury, run by Trakya University 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 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 8 Mar 2016. 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?

hs-Troponin elevation (time frame: after 16 hours). 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 NCT02581618, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 8 Mar 2016.
