Trial summary

Background Troponin are proteins found in the cardiomyocyte and are a cornerstone in the diagnoses of acute myocardial infarction. Troponin is released to the bloodstream as a result of an cardiomyocyte injury. Troponin is frequently assessed in hospital care for patients with chest pain and dyspnea. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Serial Measurements of High-sensitivity Cardiac Troponin T and Troponin I After Short, Controlled Induced Cardiac Ischemia

Background Troponin are proteins found in the cardiomyocyte and are a cornerstone in the diagnoses of acute myocardial infarction. Troponin is released to the bloodstream as a result of an cardiomyocyte injury. Troponin is frequently assessed in hospital care for patients with chest pain and dyspnea.

Guidelines recommend troponin assessment at admission and repeated at 3 to 6 hours, depending on the assay. High-sensitivity assays measure concentrations that are ten-times lower than earlier generations of assays. However, the time from when troponin is elevated in the bloodstream after an ischemic injury, measured with high-sensitivity assays, are not fully known.

During an X-ray imaging of the heart's blood vessels (coronary angiogram) it is possible to do a short, controlled occlusion of coronary artery by inflating a small balloon in one of the coronary arteries. Numerous earlier studies in patients have used this method for induced occlusion of one coronary artery for 1 to 3 minutes. Only one of the studies measured troponin I.

The aim with this study is to quantify and compare the release of troponin T and troponin I in the early hours after a controlled induced ischemia.

Study Design This is a prospective, descriptive and experimental study. There will be included 40 patients, without acute ischemic cardiac disease. They will be randomized in 4 groups.

0: 10 patients - control group, no balloon occlusion

  1. 10 patients - balloon occlusion for 30 seconds
  2. 10 patients - balloon occlusion for 60 seconds
  3. 10 patients - balloon occlusion for 90 seconds

Subsequently there will be assessed serial blood samples 0 - 3 hours: Every 15 minutes 3 - 6 hours: Every 30 minutes

Statistics This is a pilot study and it is estimated that ten patients are sufficient number of patients in each group to assess elevation of troponin after occlusion of coronary artery. The thesis is there is a dosage-response correlation between the length of balloon occlusion and the concentration of troponin in blood stream.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Coronary Syndrome and Cardiac Ischemia, run by Herlev Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

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 1 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 22 Feb 2018. 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 Denmark. 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?

Troponin release (time frame: 6 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 NCT03203057, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 22 Feb 2018.
