About this study

Official title: Plaque Evaluation by Optical Coherence Tomography and Its Association With Microvascular Obstruction in Reperfused STEMI Patients - The POMS Study

The overall objective of this research proposal is to use OCT to investigate those morphological culprit plaque characteristics associated with the risk of developing MVO in reperfused STEMI patients.

Read the detailed description

The specific research objectives include:

  1. To use OCT to determine the type of plaque (plaque rupture, plaque erosion or calcified nodule) most associated with the presence and severity of MVO (as measured by IMR and cardiac MRI).
  2. To use OCT to investigate the relationship between the extent of tissue protrusion and the amount of residual stent thrombus with the presence and severity of MVO (as measured by IMR and cardiac MRI).
Conditions

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of STEMI, run by National Heart Centre Singapore at 1 site in Singapore.

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 3 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jun 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 Singapore. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mung Peng (6704 ext. 2267, wong.mung.peng@nhcs.com.sg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

All cause mortality (time frame: Two years). 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 2016.
