研究概览
简要总结
Fondaparinux, a synthetic and specific factor Xa inhibitor, was granted an ACS indication by Health Canada in March 2007 and by the EMEA in September 2007. Among ACS patients, fondaparinux is indicated for the treatment of UA/NSTEMI in patients for whom urgent PCI (within 2 hours) is not indicated, and for the treatment of STEMI in patients who are managed with thrombolytics or who are initially to receive no other form of reperfusion therapy. The approved prescribing information for fondaparinux in ACS provides recommendations for use in patients undergoing PCI. The purpose of this study is to evaluate physician adherence to this prescribing information in ACS patients treated with fondaparinux and who undergo PCI. The primary endpoint is the proportion of patients with ACS treated with fondaparinux, for whom the prescribing information during PCI was followed (i.e., adjunctive anticoagulant therapy administered at the time of PCI). Measurement of the effectiveness or safety of fondaparinux use in ACS patients is not within the scope of this study.

时间窗: ACS hospitalizations that occur at least one month after the availability of reimbursement for fondaparinux for the UA/NSTEMI and STEMI indications at that particular site are eligible
次要结局
- The proportion of patients with STEMI treated with fondaparinux, for whom the prescribing information during PCI was followed (i.e., adjunctive anticoagulant therapy administered at the time of PCI)(ACS hospitalizations that occur at least one month after the availability of reimbursement for fondaparinux for the UA/NSTEMI and STEMI indications at that particular site are eligible)

- The proportion of patients with STEMI treated with fondaparinux, where fondaparinux is not administered prior to or during primary PCI(ACS hospitalizations that occur at least one month after the availability of reimbursement for fondaparinux for the UA/NSTEMI and STEMI indications at that particular site are eligible)
