China PEACE-Prospective AMI Study

August 27, 2015 updated by: China National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases

The China PEACE (Patient-centered Evaluative Assessment of Cardiac Events) Prospective Study of Acute Myocardial Infarction

Coronary heart disease (CHD) and heart attacks pose a serious health risk to men and women, however little information is available about how evidence-based therapies are incorporated appropriately into routine clinical practice in China. In addition, basic data and evidence about safety and efficacy of treatment for AMI is limited. By consecutively recruiting AMI patients in 40 hospitals of different levels, this study will examine various real-life factors, that may affect patients recovery after a heart attack. Practical guidelines and risk model for AMI patients will be established based on the findings, to improve patients outcomes in future finally.

Detailed Description

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major concern in public health globally, as well as in China, and AMI is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity. Remarkable variations of resources available and health system performance have been noted, however little information is available about how evidence-based therapies are incorporated appropriately into routine clinical practice in China. In addition, basic data and evidence about safety, efficacy, and effectiveness of treatment for AMI during long-term recovery is limited. Practical and applied knowledge from large unselected population is needed to guide practice and policy for quality improvement and cost reduction.

This study will enroll patients with a confirmed diagnosis of AMI consecutively in 20 tertiary hospitals and 20 secondary hospitals scattered all over China. At study entry, participants will be interviewed during their index hospitalization, to collect information about symptoms, functioning, quality of life, and medical care. Demographic characteristics, medical history, clinical features, diagnostic tests, medications, procedures, and in-hospital outcomes of patients will be abstracted from medical records by well trained professional abstractors. At 1 month, 6 month, and 12 month after discharge, participants will return to the clinic for follow up visits, a face-to-face interview will be conducted to get information about clinical events, symptoms, functioning, quality of life, and medical care during the recovery period. At 1-Month and 12-Month follow-up visit, blood and urine sample will be collected. Participants' blood samples will be stored for future biologic and genetic studies. This study will examine various real-life factors that may affect patients recovery after a heart attack, including patients' characteristics and treatment measures. Practical guidelines, quality evaluative system, and risk model for AMI patients will be established based on the findings, to improve patients outcomes in future finally.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

In 40 hospitals of different levels in China, 4000 hospitalized patients with acute myocardial infarction will be enrolled consecutively.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Hospitalized patients with acute myocardial infarction according to positive cardiac biomarkers (Troponin I/T, CK-MB or CK≥ local laboratory upper limit of normal values within 24 hours after initial presentation, and at least one of the following two supporting evidence of ischemia (ischemic symptoms occurring within 24 hours before admission or up to 72 hours for STEMI; ECG changes indicative of new ischemia).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE)
Time Frame: 1 year
Composite of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) including cardiac death, non-fatal AMI, coronary revascularization procedure, or ischemic stroke.
1 year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
