Trial summary

Background No reflow phenomenon is described in up to 65% of patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). It is known to be associated with worse outcomes but predictors of no reflow are not clearly described. Read more about this study

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

Study population: The cohort is defined as all patients attending with ST elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Cases are those subjects who suffered no reflow phenomenon, with control comparators those that had TIMI III flow and grade III myocardial blush post procedure.

Who may be able to join

  • Age ≥ 18 years
  • Presenting with ST elevation myocardial infarction
  • Appropriate for Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Who cannot join

  • Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention not performed eg due to non- flow- limiting coronary artery disease
  • Unsuccessful PCI
  • Thrombolysis
  • Patients who do not survive the procedure to leave the catheterisation laboratory

About this study

Official title: NO Reflow Phenomenon and Comparison to the Normal Flow Population Post Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Background No reflow phenomenon is described in up to 65% of patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). It is known to be associated with worse outcomes but predictors of no reflow are not clearly described.

Objectives A single centre case-control observational study of patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction appropriate for PPCI comparing baseline clinical, biochemical and angiographic characteristics between patients with no reflow phenomenon and those without. Aiming to establish incidence for the UK population.

Secondary outcomes will be to gain further insight into those presenting with STEMI for PPCI and develop a risk model to guide management and clinical outcomes of patients to 30days.

Methods This study will prospectively recruit all consecutive patients attending a single centre for primary percutaneous coronary intervention for STEMI. Angiographic assessment of the recanalised epicardial vessel will be used to diagnose no reflow (reduced TIMI flow or blush grade). Baseline demographic, angiographic and biochemical characteristics and outcomes at 30days for reflow and no reflow cohorts will be statistically assessed and compared with logistic regression.

Being tested

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
No reflow phenomenonThose that during procedure experience no reflow phenomenon To define no reflow requires: • Angiographic evidence of reopening of occluded coronary artery and successful stent placement with no evidence of flow-limiting residual stenosis (<50%), dissection, vessel spasm, or thrombus burden and * Angiographic documentation of a TIMI flow grade ≤II, or * A TIMI flow grade III with a myocardial perfusion grade 0 or I, at least 10 min after the end of PCI procedure.

No NRPNormal angiographic coronary flow/blush post patent culprit vessel.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of No Reflow Phenomenon and STEMI, run by Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 3 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 29 Jul 2019. 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 United Kingdom. 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?

Incidence of no reflow phenomenon (time frame: 0-2 days). 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 29 Jul 2019.
