NCT02468349

Brief Summary

The proposed research aims to compare Left ventricular remodeling outcomes among patients with AMI and elevated NT-pro-B-type natriuretic peptide receiving telemedicine-guided post-MI treatment vs. non-telemedicine guided treatment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Difference in Left Ventricular End-Systolic Volume (ml)

    Difference in Left Ventricular End-Systolic Volume (ml) measured on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Haemodynamic Stress

    6 months

  • Infarct size (grams and % of total LV mass)

    6 months

  • Adenosine diphosphate-induced platelet reactivity

    6 months

  • Hospitalisation & readmission

    2 years

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Quality of Life

    2 years

  • Medication Adherence

    12 months

Study Arms (2)

Telemedicine

EXPERIMENTAL

The telehealth group will be remotely monitored and managed on medication adherence, dosage titration, and management of drug side effects, through a combination of feed-forward blood pressure monitoring, app-based education and medication reminders, and remote consultations.

Other: Telemedicine

Standard care

NO INTERVENTION

The standard care group will receive face-to-face consultations at one month, 6 months and 12 months.

Interventions

Participants enrolled will be randomised 1:1 to either telemedicine arm or standard care arm.

Eligibility Criteria

Age21 Years - 85 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Clinically diagnosed STEMI or NSTEMI\* within the last 7 days at high risk of ventricular remodeling
  • Typical history of ischemic chest pain or angina equivalent symptoms (e.g. acute onset dyspnea)
  • Typical rise or fall of cardiac enzymes with at least one value of cardiac troponin I≥10 ug/L.
  • ECG changes required for diagnosis of STEMI: ≥0.1mV ST segment elevation in two or more contiguous limb leads or precordial leads or presence of Q waves ≥0.02 sec in two or more contiguous limb leads or precordial leads, or new onset left bundle branch block (LBBB), \*The definition of STEMI and NSTEMI follows the 3rd universal definition of MI \[19\]
  • Pre-discharge NTproBNP ≥300 pg/mL for both STEMI and NSTEMI
  • Undergone PCI for the index event
  • Age \>21 years and \<85 years

You may not qualify if:

  • Hypersensitivity to ticagrelor, aspirin or any excipients
  • Active pathological bleeding
  • History of intracranial haemorrhage
  • Bacterial Infection within 6 weeks preceding the primary angioplasty, HIV, autoimmune disease (e.g. SLE, rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma and Grave's disease, etc) or on immunosuppressive therapy
  • Women of child-bearing potential, known to be pregnant, breast-feeding, or intend to become pregnant during the study period
  • Malignancy within last 2 years
  • History of significant valvular heart disease (moderate or severe MS, MR, AS, AR, TR)
  • Planned CABG within the next 6 weeks
  • Unable to be weaned off inotropes or IABP
  • Active asthma or any other contraindications to beta-blockers
  • Arrhythmias precluding proper CMR image acquisition, such as atrial fibrillation and frequent atrial or ventricular ectopy of \> 1 in 5 intrinsic QRS complexes
  • Contraindications to cardiac magnetic resonance imaging including claustrophobia, pacemaker or ICD implantation, mechanical valve or other metallic implants
  • Severe liver impairment due to chronic liver disease e.g. advanced alcoholic liver cirrhosis or primary biliary cirrhosis
  • Significant renal impairment (eGFR \<50ml min-1), end stage renal failure on renal replacement therapy
  • Anaemia (Hb\<10 g/dL).
  • +3 more criteria
