About this study

Official title: The Relationship Between Peripheral Artery Plaque Characteristics Evaluated by Ultrasound and Coronary Culprit Lesion Characteristics Evaluated by OCT in ACS Patients

This study aims at evaluating the relationship between peripheral artery plaque characteristics evaluated by ultrasound and coronary culprit lesion characteristics evaluated by OCT in ACS patients.

Read the detailed description

Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) are included in this study. Two skillful echocardiographers will evaluate peripheral artery plaque characteristics by ultrasound.Ultrasound parameters of peripheral artery will be compared among patients with different coronary culprit lesion characteristics, such as plaque rupture and plaque erosion.

Medical subject headings
Acute Coronary Syndrome

What is being measured

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

  1. Differences in ultrasound parameters of peripheral artery plaque according to different coronary culprit lesion morphology.

    Plaque rupture is characterized by the presence of fibrous cap discontinuity with a cavity formation. plaque erosion is characterized by the presence of the attached thrombus overlying an intact and visual plaque, luminal surface irregularity at the culprit lesion in the absence of thrombus, or attenuation of the underlying plaque by thrombus without superficial lipid or calcification immediately proximal or distal to the site of thrombus.Patients with plaque erosion have less plaques, lower intima-media thickness (IMT), lower plaque score (PS) compared to patients with plaque rupture.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by Harbin Medical University at 1 site in China.

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 6 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 16 Sep 2020. 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 China. 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?

Differences in ultrasound parameters of peripheral artery plaque according to different coronary culprit lesion morphology. (time frame: Baseline). 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 NCT03971864, 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 16 Sep 2020.
