Pneumological Acute Coronary Syndrom (ACS) Phenotyping Aachen (PAPA)

November 17, 2017 updated by: RWTH Aachen University

Pneumological Phenotyping of Acute Coronary Syndrom (ACS) Patients Concerning Concomitant Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

In this open, monocentric, observational study acute coronary syndrom (ACS) patients will be characterized by pneumological examination concerning a concomitant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Often COPD coexists with ACS; therefore ACS patients benefit either from prevention or potential therapy of chronic hypoxia.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

In this study patients with either non ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) or ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) will be included. After amnesis patients will undergo blood withdrawal, blood-gas analysis and examinations concerning pulmonary function (Bodyplethysmography). In addition to routine blood withdrawal for differential blood count, 9 ml blood sample is takenfor molecular analysis of relevant prognostic chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)-blood based biomarkers, an for establishing a library of biomaterial in form of a biobank.
