One-hour Diagnostic Algorithm for NSTEMI

March 6, 2019 updated by: Tomsk National Research Medical Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences

One-hour Diagnostic Algorithm for Non-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction Based on Determination of Fatty-acid-binding Protein Concentration

Predictable values of the 1-hour algorithm for estimating the concentration of troponin using highly sensitive reagents are 98-100% for excluding myocardial infarction (MI) and 75-80% for identifying this pathology. Such algorithms are developed for the rapid confirmation or exclusion of myocardial infarction without ST-segment elevation and, when combined with clinical data and electrocardiogram, are used to assess the risk of adverse course of disease and to contribute to decision making about expediency of stay in the intensive therapy unit and early discharge.

In mid-1980s, a new marker of myocardial damage was proposed, namely: fatty-acid-binding protein (FABP). However, the diagnostic value of FABP cannot be interpreted unambiguously because of insufficient number of studies determining the sensitivity and specificity of the test in various manifestations of acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Available literature presents a wide range of reference values of FABP for MI diagnosis. Reference value ranges are proposed by manufacturers of diagnostic kits based on previous studies. In addition, there is no information about the FABP changes during the first three hours of the disease, as well as there are no data on diagnostic value of changes in this indicator ("∆") in patients with ACS without ST-segment elevation. These considerations provide rationale and support novelty of the planned pilot study.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

After enrollment in the study, patients will undergo the following procedures:

  1. Physical examination (at baseline) and monitoring of vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, breathing rate) at hours 1, 2, and 3 after admission to hospital.
  2. Registration of 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) (at baseline, after 24 hours, and at the day of discharge).
  3. At baseline (at the time of admission to hospital), venous blood will be obtained to perform blood tests for determination of troponin I, FABP, and CPK-MB levels. At the same time, venous blood will be sampled for routine clinical laboratory blood tests. At hours 1, 2, and 3 after admission to hospital, venous blood will be sampled for assessment of the troponin I and FABP levels.
  4. Echocardiography will be performed 24 hours after admission (LVEDV, LVESV, and EF). At day 3, standard echocardiography will be performed.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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 to 80 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

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.
