Study population: Participants with potential high-risk of sudden cardiac death.

Who may be able to join

  • The subjects with the following diagnosis of one or more cardiovascular diseases:
  • Coronary heart disease If there is a history of coronary heart disease or a new diagnosis of coronary heart disease, or with a report of coronary angiography that indicates at least one vascular stenosis>50%. Diagnosis includes chronic coronary syndrome (stable angina, ischemic cardiomyopathy, and occult coronary heart disease) and acute coronary syndrome (unstable angina, ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction).

  • Genetically related cardiomyopathy or arrhythmia Cardiomyopathy includes hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (DCM), dilated cardiomyopathy (HCM), arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), inflammatory cardiomyopathy (myocarditis, sarcoidosis, Chagas disease). Hereditary arrhythmias include long QT syndrome, short QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, idiopathic ventricular fibrillation, catecholamine sensitive polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), early repolarization syndrome, etc.

About this study

The goal of this observational study is to identify potential indicators for pre-warning of sudden cardiac death (SCD), including clinical biochemistry markers, electrocardiogram, echocardiography, MRI and CT imaging values, genetic markers and so on, and further construct a series of multi-parameter assessments of SCD early screening.

Read the detailed description

In the past few decades, evidence-based drug and surgical treatment strategies have significantly improved the prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD), however, a large number of patients with cardiovascular disease still face high risk of SCD, the prognosis of these high-risk SCD patients are still uncertain. Therefore, clinical physicians might need to move towards a multi-parameter assessment of SCD risk pre-warning. Several parameters for risk stratification of arrhythmia, including clinical biochemistry markers, electrocardiogram, echocardiography, imaging, and genetic markers, are crucial for accurate assessment of SCD risk stratification. In addition, the integration of cardiac magnetic resonance parameters and specific CT and ECG information is a future research trend for implementing risk stratification of malignant arrhythmias. In order to further explore the possibility of early warning of SCD, this study aims to include subjects with potential SCD risks, collect relevant potential SCD warning indicators, and then construct an SCD prewarning score system. Afterwards, the investigators will continuously improve the SCD warning score system based on follow-up information, and ultimately summarize an effective set of SCD warning scores and apply them to clinical practice, striving to achieve early warning of SCD and benefiting more people at risk of SCD.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sudden Cardiac Death, run by Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University at 1 site in China.

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 5 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2024. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yuling Zhang, M.D.,Ph.D. (+862081332360, zhyul@mail.sysu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sudden cardiac death (time frame: Baseline and to the 1-year, 2-year, 5-year follow-up). 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 5 Jun 2024.
