Pre-warning Risk Scoring System for Sudden Cardiac Death

June 3, 2024 updated by: Jingfeng Wang, Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University
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.

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.

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.

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

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Participants with potential high-risk of sudden cardiac death.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

The subjects with the following diagnosis of one or more cardiovascular diseases:

  1. 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).
  2. Heart failure Individuals with a history of heart failure or newly diagnosed heart failure, including heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤40%)、intermediate heart failure (HFmrEF, LVEF 41%-49%，with evidence of spontaneous or excitable increase in left ventricular filling pressure), and ejection fraction preserving heart failure (HFpEF, LVEF≥50%, there is evidence of spontaneous or excitable increase in left ventricular filling pressure).
  3. 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.

2) Sign an informed consent form.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Age<16 years old;
  2. Refusal to the follow-up visits;
  3. Individuals with severe mental disorders who are unable to express their wishes;
  4. Other obvious physical diseases and abnormal laboratory test results;
  5. Patients deemed unsuitable for participation in this study by the supervising physician.

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.

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.
