RECRUITING

A New Technique to Measure the Heart's Microvascular Function in Patients Experiencing Heart Attack

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal of this observational study to measure the heart's microvascular function in the setting of a myocardial infarction (MI), or heart attack, using a method called continuous saline thermodilution (CST). The participants will include people who are experiencing MI from sudden and complete blockage of a coronary artery requiring immediate balloon and/or stent therapy. After getting the balloon and/or stent therapy, participants will have their heart's microvascular system tested using CST. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What measurements using CST can we expect from the heart's microvascular system during a treated MI? * Can CST measurements during a treated MI predict the amount of heart muscle that is injured and that recovers? For this study, participants will undergo measurement of their heart's microvascular function after balloon and/or stent therapy for the MI. They will then receive an MRI scan of the heart several days after the MI.

Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Adults (persons \>18 years old) presenting to Cleveland Clinic cardiac catheterization lab within 24 hours of symptom onset, with clinical and EKG findings concerning for STEMI, with intent to undergo emergent primary PCI, who have culprit artery identified on diagnostic angiography
  2. * Adults (persons \>18 years old) presenting to Cleveland Clinic cardiac catheterization lab for pharmaco-invasive management of failed fibrinolysis, with intent to undergo emergent PCI, who have culprit artery identified on diagnostic angiography
  3. * On-call treating interventional cardiologist is trained in the method of continuous saline thermodilution for coronary microvascular assessment
  1. * No evidence of coronary obstruction on diagnostic angiography (e.g., Takotsubo, myocarditis leading to STEMI activation).
  2. * Patients in hemodynamic shock
  3. * Culprit artery \<3.0 mm in diameter.
  4. * Culprit artery being a bypass graft
  5. * Patients physically unable to tolerate additional time required to conduct coronary microvascular testing after primary PCI.
  6. * Patients with eGFR \<30 mL/min/1.73m2 are excluded from contributing cardiac MRI data
  7. * Patients with standard contraindications to CMR (e.g., pacemakers, cochlear implants, certain prosthetic heart valves, certain surgical implants) are excluded from contributing cardiac MRI data
  8. * Unable to provide verbal and written consent
  9. * Pregnancy
