Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 20 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Within the retrospective cohort, we include patients who had received a primary diagnosis of AMI based on the discharge claim between 2007 and 2013. After the exclusion by the mentioned criteria, patients with AMI treated with PCI and stent placement are intended to be analyzed in the present study.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients were enrolled by primary diagnostic coding as acute myocardial infarction and treatment coding as receiving PCI between 2007 and 2013 in Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD)

Who cannot join

  • Less than 20-years-old; Unknown sex and age
  • Not residents in Taiwan
  • Died during AMI admission
  • Previous history of AF
  • Receiving coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), ventricular assist device (VAD), extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), and heart transplantation during observational and/or database period
  • No stent implantation during PCI
  • Unknown stent types

About this study

Official title: The Impacts of Different Stent Types in Acute Myocardial Infarction on the Risk of Atrial Fibrillation

The benefit of a drug-eluting stent (DES) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is controversial. This study will aim to observe the effect of a DES on the risk of new-onset AF in patients with AMI.

Read the detailed description

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the leading cause of mortality in the world. Early invasive strategy with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been demonstrated to be the most effective strategy to treat AMI. Although drug-eluting stent (DES) has not shown benefits to reduce mortality rate among AMI patients compared with bare-metal stent (BMS), the use of DES in real-world is increasing because of reduced restenosis rates. AMI patients are at higher risk to develop atrial fibrillation (AF) than general population. However, whether early PCI with DES implantation is related to a reduced risk of AF still remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to investigate the association of DES implantation and the risk of AF among patients with AMI treated by early PCI.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation New Onset and Acute Myocardial Infarction, run by Mackay Memorial Hospital.

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 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 26 Dec 2017. 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. 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 Chao-Feng Lin, MD (+886-2-2543-3535, thcpci@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

new-onset atrial fibrillation (time frame: one year). 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 26 Dec 2017.
