Web basEd soCial Media tecHnology to Improvement in Adherence to Dual anTiplatelet Therapy Following Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation (WeChat), a Randomized Controlled Branch on Antiplatelet of RESCIND Study

Few studies have attempt to improve DAPT adherence through social media. The investigators will explore the prevalence of DAPT discontinuation and prove the hypothesis that using social media will improve DAPT adherence among patients requiring DAPT following DES implantation.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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

Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is frequently discontinued after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation, which could lead to many major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). Social media have been proven effective in improving lifestyles and blood pressures control, but few studies have attempt to improve DAPT adherence through social media.Therefore, eligible patients will be enrolled through scanning QR code and randomized in a 1:1 ratio to an intervention group or control group with 12 months of follow-up.The investigators will find out the prevalence of DAPT discontinuation and prove the hypothesis that using social media will improve DAPT adherence among patients requiring DAPT following DES implantation..

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Anticipated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
760

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 and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
Experimental: Intervention Group
The intervention group will receive usual text messages, personalized reminders and interactive responses.
Behavioral: Usual Text Messages
Usual text messages four times a week, including cardiovascular knowledge and follow-up reminders, such as risk factors for CHD and typical symptoms of myocardial infarction.
Behavioral: Personalized Reminders
  1. The mHealth tools will provide special interventions according to the patients' medical history. For example, patients with hypertension will receive daily reminders on blood pressure measurement and medication. They will also receive early warning on hypertension with a systolic blood pressure of >180 mmHg or <90 mmHg. Patients who smoke will be required to quit smoking. Every patient will receive a Health Report monthly, which will reflect their drug compliance, blood pressure and so on.
  2. Drug Reminders: Patients' medication information will be recorded by obtaining pictures of their medication. Patients will be asked to punch time clocks simply in the mHealth tools. If they forget to punch cards, they can punch cards whenever they think of it. If there is no record of medication for 3 days, SMS alerts will be received, and phone calls will be received over 7 days.
Behavioral: Interactive Responses
  1. Auto-Response: After sending personal or discomfort symptom questions, the patients will be provided with an automatic response pushed by the back-end database by crawling the keywords. It is suggested that the answer is just for reference. In case of urgent questions, they will be advised to consult the clinicians.
  2. The researchers will communicate with the patients every month.
Other: Control Group
The control group will receive usual text messages only.
Behavioral: Usual Text Messages
Usual text messages four times a week, including cardiovascular knowledge and follow-up reminders, such as risk factors for CHD and typical symptoms of myocardial infarction.

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Rate of Discontinuation of Dual Antiplatelet Drug
Time Frame: 1 year
Defined as discontinuation of any dual antiplatelet drug owing to patients' own discretion, including bleeding or non-compliance rather than doctors' advice. Changing of DAPT medication between ticagrelor and clopidogrel under doctors' advice will not be identified as dual antiplatelet drug discontinuation; changing of such under own discretion will be identified as such
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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Medication Adherence
Time Frame: 1 year
Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) adherence according to proportion of days covered (PDC) by prescription.
1 year
Number of Participants with Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events
Time Frame: 1 year
All-cause mortality,target vessel revascularization, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and stroke
1 year
