What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Coronary angiographyProcedure or surgery

    Also called Diagnostic coronary angiography

    Coronary angiogram performed either in hospital or post-discharge, within 14 days after initial hospital presentation with heart failure

Study groups in NCT04245605
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Early angiographyPatients admitted to hospital with acute heart failure undergoing coronary angiography within 14 days of hospital admission
Receives: Procedure: Coronary angiography
ControlPatients admitted to hospital with acute heart failure not undergoing coronary angiography within 14 days

What is being measured

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

  1. All-cause mortality

    Death from any cause after 14 days in landmark analysis

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Cardiovascular mortality

    Death due to cardiovascular causes after 14 days in landmark analysis

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. All-cause hospital readmission

    Readmissions for all causes after 14 days or hospital discharge in landmark analysis

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Heart failure readmission

    Readmissions for heart failure after 14 days or hospital discharge in landmark analysis

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Readmission for myocardial infarction

    Readmissions for myocardial infarction after 14 days or hospital discharge in landmark analysis

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Rates of revascularization

    Coronary revascularization with CABG surgery or PCI procedure

    Measured: 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Heart Failure, run by Institute for Clinical Evaluative Sciences at 1 site in Canada.

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 0 inclusion and 14 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 Aug 2022. 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 Canada. 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?

All-cause mortality (time frame: 2 years). 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.

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 Aug 2022.
