Trial summary

Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a significant complication following non-cardiac surgery. We sought to evaluate incidence of perioperative MI, its preoperative - and intraoperative - risk factors and outcomes after this complication. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Association Between Intraoperative Hypotension and Perioperative Myocardial Injury: a Nested Case Control Study

Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is a significant complication following non-cardiac surgery. We sought to evaluate incidence of perioperative MI, its preoperative - and intraoperative - risk factors and outcomes after this complication.

Read the detailed description

Background:

In Sweden, over 800 000 patents undergo surgery each year. Worldwide, the number of surgical procedures yearly is over 310 million. Surgical care is en essential part of the advancement in treating disease, associated with increased lift expectancy a d improved quality of life. However as surgical volume continues to grow, the number of patients who suffer postoperative complications will also increase.

Hemodynamic instability in the perioperative period is frequent and there has been a cumulative interest in this area and the relation to organ failure over the recent years. There are several studies showing results of associations between intraoperative hypotensive events and perioperative cardiac, kidney and cerebral injury, as well as increased mortality in high-risk surgical patients.

More specifically the project aims to answer how intraoperative events, with a special focus on hypotension, are related to perioperative myocardial and kidney injury.

We hypothesize that patients, with preoperative risk factors, undergoing major non-cardiac surgery are at increased risk of developing perioperative organ damage in the presence of intraoperative hypotension or other events such as tachycardia, hypoxia and extensive blood loss.

What is being measured

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

  1. Acute Myocardial Infarction

    Acute MI, detected in the postoperative phase in the electronic medical records or in the Swedeheart Registry

    Measured: Within 30 days after the index surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Mortality

    Death, detected in the postoperative phase in the Swedish Cause of Death Register.

    Measured: Witis 30 days after the index surgery and at later predefined time points: 60, 90 180 and 365 days after the index surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myocardial Infarction Postoperative and Myocardial Injury, run by Karolinska Institutet at 1 site in Sweden.

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 4 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 26 Oct 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 Sweden. 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?

Acute Myocardial Infarction (time frame: Within 30 days after the index surgery). 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 Oct 2020.
