About this study

Official title: Timely Acquirement of 12-lead Electrocardiography Using Patchy-type Wireless Device Among Patient With Chest Pain in Emergency Departement

In this study, the investigators compare timely acquirement of 12-lead ECG using patchy-type wireless versus using standard 12-lead ECG system among patient with chest pain in ED. The purpose of this study is to determine the difference of timely acquirement of 12-lead ECG using two different systems and the difference of hospital delay in ED between two groups. The participants were randomly divided into 2 groups: one performing an ECG examination using the standard 12-lead ECG and the other using the patch-type mobile 12-lead ECG.The 12-lead ECG will be taken 2 times serially in every 15 minutes.

Read the detailed description
  1. research background Electrocardiography (ECG) is the most important diagnostic tool for rapid detection of acute coronary syndrome, and should be performed and interpreted promptly on appearance of symptoms. Early detection of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) on a 12-lead ECG, within 10 minutes after the first medical contact before hospitalization not only minimizes the time taken for diagnosis and reperfusion therapy but also increases the chances of patient survival and preservation of myocardial function. However, it is challenging to perform a 12-lead ECG promptly using the standard 12-lead ECG system for several reasons. First, it is difficult to identify the landmarks for the 10-electrode configuration of the standard ECG. Second, electrodes on the extremities often cause artifacts due to body and muscle movements. Moreover, most of the standard 12-lead ECG systems have cables connected to the precordial and limb leads, which frequently get entangled and disorganized, and can be difficult to manage.Most importantly, its accuracy is dependent on the operators' experience; not just that of the nurses or emergency medical technicians, but also of cardiologists.These difficulties might increase the time taken to perform an ECG especially in pre-hospital situations.
  2. Objective The purpose of this study is to determine the difference of timely acquirement of 12-lead ECG using two different systems and the difference of hospital delay in ED between two groups.
  3. Design : Randomized controlled trial
  4. Setting : ED at the Samsung medical center
  5. Enrollment : 36 patients who visited the ED with chest pain
  6. Intervention Standard 12-lead ECG will be performed at the time of visiting ED to the participants with chest pain.

ED physicians will prescribe to perform second and third 12-lead ECG in every 15 minutes.

  1. Control group : Second and third 12 lead ECG will be taken using standard 12-lead ECG device as a doctor's order.
  2. Study group :Second and third 12 lead ECG will be taken using patchy-type 12-lead ECG device as a doctor's order.
  3. scoring To measure, interval from the anticipated time to take 12-lead ECG to the time actually performed will be measured. The duration from the anticipated time to the time of verification by physician will be also measured.
  4. study period The experiment ends when patient who agreed to participate in the study discharged the ED.

Second and third 12 lead ECG will be taken using standard 12-lead ECG device as a doctor's order. Interns and ECG technicians will perform 12-lead ECG as they perform as usual.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time from ordering to performing 12-lead ECGs during up to 24 hours in ED.

    Comparison of interval from the anticipated time to take 12-lead ECG to the time actually performed will be measured.

    Measured: measure the time duration from ECG ordering to performing during up to 24 hours in ED

  2. Time from ordering to verifying 12-lead ECGs by ED physician during up to 24 hours in ED.

    Comparison of interval from the anticipated time to take 12-lead ECG to the time verified by physician

    Measured: measure the time duration from ECG ordering to verifying by ED physician during up to 24 hours in ED

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The Presence of artifacts in 12-lead ECGs.

    Comparison of the presence of artifacts in 12-lead ECGs in intervention group and control group

    Measured: ECG reading and checking of presence of artifacts in 12 lead ECGs through study completion, an average of 1 month.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing patchy-type wireless 12-lead ECG in people with Chest Pain and Electrocardiography, run by Samsung Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

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 5 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 23 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 South Korea. 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?

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time from ordering to performing 12-lead ECGs during up to 24 hours in ED. (time frame: measure the time duration from ECG ordering to performing during up to 24 hours in ED). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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.
