Trial summary

While international guidelines have indicated that use of a routine invasive strategy was favored for high-risk patients with NSTE-ACS and for all STE- ACS, the lower risk patients successfully reperfused and carrefully selected may perhaps not benefit of this systematic strategy.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of in- Hospital Course of Acute Coronary Syndromes in the Contempory Area

While international guidelines have indicated that use of a routine invasive strategy was favored for high-risk patients with NSTE-ACS and for all STE- ACS, the lower risk patients successfully reperfused and carrefully selected may perhaps not benefit of this systematic strategy. Evaluation of complications occurring in a contemporary population of ACS may help to evaluate the need of ICU strategy. Coupled with favorable outcomes in many patients, these data may be an opportunity for testing of strategies to refine triage to less costly hospital care units. The investigators thus want to compare, through an observational and prospective study, the event rate of two groups of patients with ACS admitted to ICU . Patients are classified as "high risk" and "low risk" according to specific medical criteria validated in the literature. The study will include all consecutive patients admitted for NSTACS and STACS admitted to the intensive care department of the Montpellier university hospital with the diagnosis of ACS confirmed by coronary angiography.

Our primary goal is to compare the percentage of patients with at least one serious clinical event between the high and low risk groups. A serious event is defined by the occurrence within 7+/-5 days of one of the following criteria: death all causes, serious neurological or hemorrhagic complications, hemodynamic instability and severe heart failure, rhythm or sustained or poorly tolerated conduction disorders requiring therapeutic intervention, painful recurrence requiring new coronary angiography, secondary transfer to intensive care for any reason.

Our hypothesis is that low-risk patients will have very few events and no fatal events and that they could not require intensive care unit admission .

Read the detailed description

All patients admitted in the ICU Montpellier University center for ACS from May 2019 to May 2020 will be evaluated and classed as low risk patients (groupe LR) or not low risk patients (NLR) after coronary angiography evaluation. High risk criteria will include age >80 years, severe comorbidities, unstable hemodynamic or rhythmic state requiring specific therapeutic intervention, failure of reperfusion or unsatisfactory result of angioplasty, patients with residual coronary lesions requiring further revascularization, left ventricular ejection fraction <40%. Patients who have not received optimal antithrombotic treatment during angioplasty for any reason will also be considered at high risk, as will patients at risk of bleeding due to antecedent or associated pathology or taking a long-term anticoagulant treatment. For the specific case of SCA with ST segment elevation, they will all be included in the group, except for patients who have been successfully reperfused less than 3 hours after the onset of pain or who have an open artery during coronary angiography performed within the first 3 hours.

Our primary endpoint is to compare the percentage of patients with at least one serious clinical event between the high and low risk groups. A serious event is defined by the occurrence within 7+/-5 days of one of the following criteria: death all causes, serious neurological or hemorrhagic complications, hemodynamic instability and severe heart failure, rhythm or sustained or poorly tolerated conduction disorders requiring therapeutic intervention, chest pain recurrence requiring new coronary angiography, any secondary transfer to intensive care for any reason. Secondary endpoints include evaluation of adverse events (all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, unplanned hospitalization for cardiac and non-cardiac causes) at 1 month follow-up in the 2 groups, length of hospitalization of the two groups, calculation of the average number of serious events per patient The low-risk group event rate is estimated at 3 percent without any fatal events. It is estimated at 15 percent in the high risk group.

Assuming a frequency of the event of 3% in the low risk group and 15% in the high risk group, it is necessary to include at least 269 patients, including 196 patients in the high risk group and 73 patients in the low risk group (for a power of 90% and an alpha risk of 5%).

Our hypothesis is that low-risk patients, about 1/3 of ACS admission in ICU, will have very few events and no fatal events and that they don't need intensive care admission

What is being measured

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

  1. clinical evaluation during hospitalization

    all causes of death, serious neurological or hemorrhagic complications, hemodynamic instability and severe heart failure, rhythm or sustained or poorly tolerated conduction disorders requiring therapeutic intervention, chest pain recurrence requiring new coronary angiography, secondary transfer to intensive care for any reason

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. all-cause and cardiovascular mortality

    all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, unplanned hospitalization for cardiac and non-cardiac causes) at 1 month follow-up in the 2 groups, length of hospitalization of the two groups, calculation of the average number of serious events per patient : One month follow up (by phone or medical consultation)

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Coronary Syndrome and Intensive Care Unit Syndrome, run by University Hospital, Montpellier at 1 site in France.

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 3 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 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 France. 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?

clinical evaluation during hospitalization (time frame: 1 day). 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 NCT04378504, 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 29 Jul 2020.
