Bivalirudin in Stable Ischemic Heart Disease Patients Undergoing PCI

May 31, 2016 updated by: Yun Dai Chen, Chinese PLA General Hospital
Prolonging infusions may decrease myocardial damage associated with bivalirudin use during primary PCI. The investigators hypothesized that continuing the bivalirudin infusion commenced during the procedure at the PCI recommended dose for 4 hours would prevent myocardial damage.

Detailed Description

Bivalirudin is widely used as an anticoagulant during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary heart disease. Prolonging infusions may decrease myocardial damage associated with bivalirudin use during primary PCI . However, whether prolonging infusions of bivalirudin could prevent ischemic complications is unknown. The investigators examined the effects of prolonged drug infusion after elective PCI. The investigators hypothesized that continuing the bivalirudin infusion commenced during the procedure at the PCI recommended dose for 4 hours would prevent myocardial damage.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: heparin
For the heparin group, a bolus dose of 100 U/kg was administered according to current guidelines.
Heparin is used in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.
Experimental: not prolong infusion Bivalirudin
Bivalirudin was given as a bolus of 0.75mg/kg followed by infusion of 1.75mg/kg/h during the PCI procedure .
Bivalirudin is an alternative to heparin in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.
Experimental: prolong infusion bivalirudin
Bivalirudin was given as a bolus of 0.75mg/kg followed by infusion of 1.75mg/kg/h during the PCI procedure and prolong for 4 hours after procedure.
Bivalirudin is an alternative to heparin in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.
