A Study of Microcirculatory Function in Type 2 Myocardial Infarction (T2MI)

Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Myocardial Infarction
Coronary Microvascular Disease
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Coronary angiogram with coronary reactivity testing (CRT)
Registration Number
NCT05793567
Lead Sponsor
Mayo Clinic
Brief Summary

The purpose of this research is to find out if patients with Type 2 Myocardial Infarction (T2MI) without significant epicardial coronary artery disease (CAD) have a greater chance of having coronary microvascular disease (CMD).

Exclusion Criteria
  • Acute coronary event (evidence of plaque rupture, fissure or dissection on coronary angiogram)
  • Known to have angiographically significant CAD/pressure wire positive for epicardial CAD
  • Inability to receive heparin products
  • Allergy/contraindication to acetylcholine/adenosine/nitroglycerine products
  • Prior coronary artery bypass grafting
  • Pregnancy (if sexually active woman of reproductive age, need negative pregnancy test prior to proceeding with coronary angiography - this is standard of care in cath lab)
  • Asthma with prior ICU admission due to bronchospasm/need for invasive ventilation

Arm && Interventions
GroupInterventionDescription
T2MI PatientsCoronary angiogram with coronary reactivity testing (CRT)Patients with T2MI and no epicardial coronary stenosis \>50% will be prospectively enrolled and undergo a routine standard of care coronary angiogram with coronary reactivity testing (CRT).
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Coronary Flow Reserve (CFR)Baseline

The CFR will be calculated as a ratio of coronary flow at peak hyperemia /coronary flow at rest.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Backward Compression Wave (BCW)Baseline

The BCW is a measure of increased microvascular resistance during systole.
