Anti-thrombotic and Glucose Lowering Therapy in Diabetic Patients Undergoing PCI

Conditions
Type2 Diabetes Mellitus
Coronary Heart Disease
Interventions
Other: Exposure to Anti-thrombotic treatment agents and glucose lowering therapy
Registration Number
NCT04481997
Lead Sponsor
Associacao para Investigacao e Desenvolvimento da Faculdade de Medicina - CETERA
Brief Summary

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the main risk factors for ischemic events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes is a factor in several post-PCI (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention) risk scores. However, until recently, there were almost no studies performed specifically in the diabetic population of patients undergoing PCI. This study aims to describe the anti-thrombotic regimens, clinical outcomes and current diabetes medical treatment in an unselected consecutive population of patients with DM undergoing PCI.

Detailed Description

Diabetes is one of the main risk factors for ischemic events in patients with coronary artery disease and diabetes is a factor in several post-PCI risk scores (including the commonly used DAPT score). However, until recently, there were almost no studies performed specifically in the diabetic population of patients undergoing PCI. At large, results from randomized trials assessing the duration of DAPT have produced conflicting results and there is uncertainty about the best anti-thrombotic strategy in patients with diabetes. Further assessment of the patterns of use and their clinical effects, including those related to prolonged DAPT is needed, in diabetic patients, especially in less selected "real world" populations.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Reasons for prolonging DAPT over 1 year12 to 24 months follow-up
Enumeration of the anti-thrombotic agents prescribed to patientsBaseline to 24 months follow-up
Planned duration of dual anti-platelet treatment (DAPT) after the PCI.From index admission to 24 months follow-up
Adherence to anti-thrombotic regimen6 to 24 months follow-up

Classified qualitatively according to the assessment of the attending physician.

Actual duration of DAPT (if different from the planned duration)6 to 24 months follow-up
Reasons for interrupting DAPT at a time different from the planned duration6 to 24 months follow-up
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Major Adverse Coronary Events (MACE)6 to 24 months follow-up

Major Adverse Coronary Events (MACE) (death from any cause, new spontaneous acute myocardial infarction, stroke).

Death rate from any cause6 to 24 months follow-up
Rate of cardiovascular death6 to 24 months follow-up
Rate of new spontaneous acute myocardial infarction6 to 24 months follow-up
Rate of hospital admissions for acute coronary infarction6 to 24 months follow-up
Rate of unplanned coronary revascularization6 to 24 months follow-up
Rate of stroke/transient ischemic attack6 to 24 months follow-up
Death rate from heart failure6 to 24 months follow-up
Rate of hospital admission due to heart failure6 to 24 months follow-up
Rate of bleeding events of type 3-5 of BARC (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium) scale6 to 24 months follow-up

The BARC (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium) scale will be used. The minimum and maximum scores of the scale are, respectively, type 0 (no bleeding) and type 5 (fatal). There will only be collected the events corresponding to type 3-5 of BARC scale.

Rate of bleeding events of type 1-5 of BARC (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium) scale6 to 24 months follow-up

The BARC (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium) scale will be used. The minimum and maximum scores of the scale are, respectively, type 0 (no bleeding) and type 5 (fatal). There will be collected the events corresponding to type 1-5 of BARC scale.

Percentage of patients treated with different glucose-lowering drugs.Before index admission to 24 months follow-up.
Diabetes control (HbA1c values)At baseline to 24 months follow-up
