Implication of Cardiac Shock Wave Therapy on Coronary Artery Disease Patients
- Conditions
- Coronary Artery Disease
- Interventions
- Device: cardiac shock wave therapy
- Registration Number
- NCT04694157
- Lead Sponsor
- Beijing Hospital
- Brief Summary
CAD is a challenging affliction which has a high annual morbidity rate in China and the world. Severe CAD may lead to compromised cardiac function, decreased exertional capacity and poor quality of life (QOL). The most common treatment for CAD is medication, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). However, some patients had long-term of history with complex severe artery lesions, they are not candidate for redo interventional therapy. Cardiac shock wave therapy (CSWT) is an exploring therapy used globally for CAD patients, which is known for its safety, non-invasiveness and effectiveness.The previous RCT from the investigators' team has already finished, and results are in submission processing.
This is a prospective, single arm, observational study design. CAD patients will be enrolled consecutively. The entire treatment period will last 3 months with 9 sessions. Outcomes are assessed as efficacy outcomes and safety outcomes. Efficacy outcomes include symptom (CCS score, NYHA classification, nitroglycerin dosage, SAQ questionnaire), exertional capacity (6MWT), quality of life (SF-36 questionnaire) and imaging evaluation (myocardial perfusion imaging and echocardiography). Safety outcome include the change of serum TNT, CKMB, BNP and adverse event (AE) occurrence. The participants will be followed up at 13th week, 6th months and 12th months.
- Detailed Description
CAD is a challenging affliction which has a high annual morbidity rate in China and the world. Severe CAD may lead to compromised cardiac function, decreased exertional capacity and poor quality of life (QOL). The most common treatment for CAD is medication, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). However, some patients had long-term of history with complex severe artery lesions, they are not candidate for redo interventional therapy. Cardiac shock wave therapy (CSWT) is an exploring therapy used globally for CAD patients, which is known for its safety, non-invasiveness and effectiveness. In the previous clinical studies, CSWT can alleviated angina symptom, improved myocardial ischemia and increased exertional capacity. Many single arm studies proved its efficacy and safety. Our RCT has already finished, and results are in submission processing.
This is a prospective, single arm, observational study design. CAD patients will be enrolled consecutively. The entire treatment period will last 3 months with 9 sessions. CSWT will be administered in the first week, follow by a 3-week non-treatment interval. Outcomes are assessed as efficacy outcomes and safety outcomes. Efficacy outcomes include symptom (CCS score, NYHA classification, nitroglycerin dosage, SAQ questionnaire), exertional capacity (6MWT), quality of life (SF-36 questionnaire) and imaging evaluation (myocardial perfusion imaging and echocardiography). Safety outcome include the change of serum TNT, CKMB, BNP and adverse event (AE) occurrence. Symptom, 6MWT and questionnaires will be evaluated at baseline and 13th week, 6th months, 12th months of CSWT. Imaging outcomes will be evaluated at baseline and 13th week, 12th months of CSWT. The level of TNT, CKMB and BNP will be tested before and 1st week after initiation of CSWT.

Group Intervention Description Treatment group cardiac shock wave therapy The treatment group will receive cardiac shock wave therapy. The CSWT entire treatment will period last 3 months with 9 sessions. CSWT will administered in the first week, followed by a 3-week non-treatment interval.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Summed Rest Score Change from Baseline Summed Rest Score at 12 months. Summed Rest Score of 17 segments of left ventricle under myocardial perfusion imaging. Each segment will be scored from 0 to 4. The minimum score is 0 while the maximum score is 68. Higher score means worse ischemia.
Summed Stress Score Change from Baseline Summed Stress Score at 12 months. Summed Stress Score of 17 segments of left ventricle under myocardial perfusion imaging. Each segment will be scored from 0 to 4. The minimum score is 0 while the maximum score is 51. Higher score means worse ischemia.
Summed Reverse Score Change from Baseline Summed Reverse Score at 12 months. Summed Reverse Score of 17 segments of left ventricle under myocardial perfusion imaging. Each segment will be scored from 0 to 4. The minimum score is 0 while the maximum score is 51. Higher score means worse ischemia.
Regional Rest Score Change from Baseline Regional Rest Score at 12 months. Rest Score of target treatment segments of left ventricle under myocardial perfusion imaging. Each segment will be scored from 0 to 4. The minimum score is 0 while the maximum score is 8. Higher score means worse ischemia.
Regional Stress Score Change from Baseline Regional Stress Score at 12 months. Stress Score of target treatment segments of left ventricle under myocardial perfusion imaging will be calculate. Each segment will be scored from 0 to 4. The minimum score is 0 while the maximum score is 8. Higher score means worse ischemia.
Regional Reverse Score Change from Baseline Regional Reverse Score at 12 months. Reverse Score of target treatment segments of left ventricle under myocardial perfusion imaging will be calculate. Each segment will be scored from 0 to 4. The minimum score is 0 while the maximum score is 8. Higher score means worse ischemia.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method CCS score Change from Baseline CCS score at 12 months. Canadian Cardiovascular Society score. The score is from 1 to 4 score. Higher score means worse ischemia.
NYHA classification Change from Baseline NYHA classification at 12 months. Now York Heart Association classification. The score is from 1 to 4. Higher score means worse heart function.
Seattle Angina Questionnaire Change from Baseline NYHA classification at 12 months. Seattle Angina Questionnaire has five domain: physical limitation, angina stability, angina frequency, treatment satisfaction and quality of life. Each domain are 0-100 scale.
QOL: SF-36 Questionnaire Change from Baseline SF-36 score at 12 months. SF-36 Questionnaire include vitality, physical functioning, body pain, general health perceptions, physical role functioning, emotional role functioning, social role functioning, mental health. Each items are 0-100 scale.
Six minutes walk test Change from Baseline 6MWT at 12 months. Six minutes walk test proceed according to ATS guideline. The total distance will be recored.
