Evaluating DyNamic Myocardial Blood Flow QUantitation As a Cost Effective Care ModeL for DiabEtic Patients With Coronary Artery DiSease
- Conditions
- Diabetes MellitusCoronary Artery Disease
- Interventions
- Radiation: Myocardial perfusion imaging
- Registration Number
- NCT05343884
- Lead Sponsor
- National Heart Centre Singapore
- Brief Summary
This will be a prospective randomized clinical trial comprising of n=300 diabetic patients, randomized to either dynamic (n=150) or conventional MPI (n=150) strategy. Healthcare resources utilization of each patient will be tracked. Patients will be followed up for short term outcomes and for long term outcomes.
- Detailed Description
Diabetes mellitus poses unique problems to detection and management of coronary atherosclerosis. Among the diabetics, certain spectrums of coronary atherosclerosis may be missed on conventional myocardial perfusion imaging, such as early coronary microvascular dysfunction. On the other spectrum, advanced coronary atherosclerosis may result in balanced ischemia, recording falsely negative results on conventional myocardial perfusion imaging. These uncertainties either lead to more downstream testing or under-detection resulting in higher risks of adverse outcomes. Compared to conventional myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI), dynamic MPI quantitation is a new validated technique that provides additional quantitation across the entire spectrum of coronary atherosclerosis.
Outcomes:
Short term outcomes:
* The primary end-point is diagnostic failure, defined as unnecessary coronary angiography (absence of ≥50% stenosis in ≥1 coronary arteries) or any additional coronary testing (example, computed tomography of coronary arteries).
* Secondary end-points are post-test referral to coronary angiography, coronary revascularization (percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass surgery), or escalation in anti-anginal medication.
Long term outcomes:
* Major adverse cardiovascular events to be measured include cardiac mortality, acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina, any revascularization, up till 36 months.
* Quality of life (QOL): Using Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) and EuroQOL-5D-3L, we will measure the difference in QOL measured at baseline and follow-up within each diagnostic strategy, and compared between both strategies.
The differences in healthcare resource utilization and associated costs will be compared between the two diagnostic strategies.
Group A

Baseline procedures
1. Cardiovascular measurements:
Non-invasive brachial blood pressure machine Echocardiogram Standard transthoracic echocardiographic examination will be performed according to established laboratory practice using standard commercially available machines.
Resting electrocardiography will be performed to ascertain sinus rhythm.
2. Biospecimen collection Fresh blood, urine and/or stool specimens will be collected for biochemistry, biomarkers and other profiles.
3. Musculoskeletal and Physical Analysis Participants will undergo focused examinations that include measurement of height, weight, body mass index, waist circumference, body composition analysis and handgrip strength.
4. Questionnaires You will be interviewed by our study coordinator regarding your health condition and other questions related to your health, physical activity and lifestyle and other questionnaires.
5. Dynamic myocardial perfusion imaging Dynamic myocardial perfusion imaging is performed to obtain additional measurements of coronary blood flow, compared to conventional imaging.
