About this study

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the world. 17.5 million people died in 2012 due to a cerebrovascular disease (31% of all causes of death). In Europe more than 50% of deaths are due to cardiovascular disease. The mortality rate for cardiovascular disease is higher in the lower socio-economic levels. Three-quarters of deaths from cardiovascular disease occur in developing countries. According to estimates in 2030, cardiovascular disease will be responsible for more deaths than the sum of infectious, nutritional, maternal and perinatal diseases in developing countries.

Measures to prevent cardiovascular risk factors have been shown to be effective.

The lack of an adequate primary care network in developing countries limits the screening and treatment of patients with cardiovascular risk factors. As a result, these patients do not benefit from adequate prevention, are diagnosed late and remain disabled or die at a young age, resulting in significant additional costs for families but also at the macroeconomic level.

Interventions are possible on a large scale (policies against tobacco and adverse dietary behavior, promote physical activity, etc.). Actions are possible on an individual level, both in primary prevention (control of cardiovascular risk factors) and secondary prevention, where many treatments have proved their effectiveness. These interventions are effective and cost-effective from a macroeconomic perspective. It was estimated that the cost of such interventions would not exceed 4% of health expenditure in developing countries and 1-2% in rich countries.

The World Health Organization insists on the importance of the triad composed by the patient and his family, community and health professionals. Results are possible only when these three components work together for the same purpose. Numerous studies show the benefit of the involvement of patients in their care in the rich countries and in the developing countries.

Read the detailed description

This project builds on advances in the treatment of HIV / AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa and in chronic disease management through the WHO Innovative Care for Chronic Conditions Framework.

These projects emerged from the observation that the rich country model of care (patient-centered, hospital-centered and specialist approach with regular clinical and paraclinic follow-up) was not transferable to developing countries, The limitation of human, technical and financial resources.

A paradigm shift is needed to improve cardiovascular disease control in a more cost-effective manner.

The SPICES project plans to integrate the current knowledge of new studies to improve the prevention and control of cardiovascular disease in high-, middle-, and low-income countries.

Rich countries and developing countries will therefore be involved in the study: the selected sites are France, the United Kingdom, Belgium, South Africa and Uganda.

This study is a stage of observation in the different countries which will make it possible to make an inventory of the places and to target the most adapted interventions.

The main objective is to define the representations on cardiovascular prevention and the follow up of patients with cardiovascular disease or FDRCV.

The secondary objectives are to identify:

  • the brakes in the management of patients with CVD or FDRCV
  • the institutional care network for these patients
  • Identify the "informal" care network, that is, family and community caregivers and within them the potential barriers and facilitators to their care.

What is being measured

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

  1. Experiences of patients with cardiovascular disease

    The representations on cardiovascular prevention and the follow-up experience of patients with cardiovascular disease or CVRF will be defined by questionnaire

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The obstacles of patients with cardiovascular disease

    The obstacles to the management of patients with CVD or CVRF will be identified by questionnaire

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Institutional care network

    The institutional care network for these patients will be identified by questionnaire

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Informal or informal care network

    The "informal" care network, that is to say, family or community caregivers and within them the brakes and facilitators will be identified by questionnaire

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Interview in people with Cardiovascular Disease, run by University Hospital, Brest at 21 sites in France.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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 4 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in France. 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?

Experiences of patients with cardiovascular disease (time frame: 1 day). 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 Apr 2019.
