1 CSP #599 - Transfusion Trigger After Operations in High Cardiac Risk Patients (TOP)

The goal of the proposed study is to determine whether a liberal transfusion strategy (transfusion trigger at Hb < 10 gm/dl) in Veterans at high cardiac risk who undergo major open vascular and general surgery operations is associated with decreased risk of adverse postoperative outcomes compared to a restrictive transfusion strategy (transfusion trigger at Hb < 7 gm/dl).

NCT03229941 Myocardial Infarction Coronary Revascularization Acute Renal Failure Procedure: Blood Transfusion
MeSH:Acute Kidney Injury Myocardial Infarction Infarction
HPO:Acute kidney injury Myocardial infarction

Primary Outcomes

Description: MI will be defined using the Third Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction. Acute renal failure will be defined as Acute Kidney Injury stage III according to RIFLE criteria. Baseline creatinine will be considered the creatinine upon admission prior to the index operation. The above urine output criteria will be only used for patients who are in the ICU and have precise monitoring of their urinary output. For patients on the surgical floor only serum creatinine changes will be used for assessment of this endpoint. Coronary revascularization will be defined as a coronary artery bypass graft, or percutaneous coronary intervention (either angioplasty or stenting). Stroke will be defined as new unilateral neurological deficit that lasts for more than 24 hours, and is confirmed by a brain imaging modality (computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging study) demonstrating new brain infarct.

Measure: A composite endpoint of all-cause post-randomization mortality, myocardial infarction (MI), coronary revascularization, acute renal failure, or post-randomization ischemic stroke up to 90 days after randomization.

Time: 90 days after randomization

Secondary Outcomes

Description: Wound infection will be defined according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines as a) positive wound culture, or b) drainage of pus from a wound, or c) suspicion of wound infection that was drained operatively. Pneumonia will be defined according to the CDC definition as chest radiograph with new or progressive infiltrate, consolidation, cavitation, or pleural effusion and any of the following: new onset of purulent sputum or change in character of sputum, or organism isolated from blood culture, trans-tracheal aspirate, bronchial brushings, or biopsy. Sepsis will be defined as a combination of two of the following systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) criteria, plus suspected or present source of infection. SIRS criteria will include the following: temperature greater than 38C, heart rate greater than 90 beats/min, WBC > 12,000 or < 4,000, or > 10% bands.

Measure: A composite endpoint of postoperative infectious complications at 90 days post-randomization: Infectious complications will include wound infections, pneumonia, and sepsis.

Time: 90 days after randomization

Description: The diagnosis of cardiac arrhythmias will be based on EKG findings. Only arrhythmias that result in initiation of new treatment regimen (to include medications, implantable devices, or surgical intervention) during hospitalization will be recorded. CHF will require at least one of the following symptoms or signs new or worsening: dyspnea at rest, orthopnea, or paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea and radiological evidence of heart failure or worsening heart failure and increase/initiation of established treatment. Cardiac arrest will be defined as the cessation of cardiac pump function activity that results in loss of consciousness and absence of circulating blood flow as evidenced by absent carotid pulse. Only episodes of cardiac arrest that are reversed will be collected under this endpoint. If they are not reversed the event will be categorized as death.

Measure: A composite endpoint of cardiac complications (other than MI) at 90 days post-randomization: Cardiac complications will include new cardiac arrhythmias that necessitate new treatment, new or worsening congestive heart failure (CHF), and cardiac arrest no

Time: 90 days after randomization

Description: The investigators will determine vital status by telephoning participants after hospital discharge, by searching the electronic medical record and the National Death Index.

Measure: All-cause mortality at 1 year after randomization.

Time: 12 months after randomization

Description: MI, coronary revascularization, acute renal failure, or postoperative ischemic stroke.

Measure: A composite endpoint of all-cause mortality,

Time: 30 days after randomization

Description: Length of hospital stay

Measure: Length of hospital stay.

Time: At hospital discharge, up to 1 year

Other Outcomes

Description: All cause postoperative mortality, Postoperative MI, Postoperative coronary revascularization, Postoperative stroke,Postoperative acute renal failure

Measure: The investigators will examine individual rates of the outcomes that consist of individual components of the primary endpoint.

Time: 90 days after randomization

2 Myocardial Infarction Rates Overview During COVID-19 Pandemic In France: MODIF Study

In late December 2019, an emerging disease due to a novel coronavirus (named SARS-CoV-2) rapidly spread in China and outside. France is currently facing the COVID-19 wave with more than 89 953 confirmed cases and almost 7560 deaths. Systems of care have been reorganized in an effort to preserve hospital bed capacity, resources, and avoid exposure of patients to the hospital environment where COVID-19 may be more prevalent. Therefore, elective procedures of catheterization and programmed hospitalizations have been delayed. However, a significant proportion of procedures within the catheterization laboratory such as ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), non ST elevation myocardial infarction or unstable angina are mandatory and cannot be postponed. Surprisingly, invasive cardiologist noticed a drop in STEMI volume without reliable data to confirm this impression. Furthermore, a recent single center report in Hong Kong pointed out longer delays of taking care when compared to patients with STEMI treated with percutaneous intervention the previous year. These data are at major concern because delay in seeking care or not seeking care could have detrimental impact on outcomes.

3 Integrated Distance Management Strategy for Patients With Cardiovascular Disease (Ischaemic Coronary Artery Disease, High Blood Pressure, Heart Failure) in the Context of the COVID-19 Pandemic

Management of known patients with cardiovascular disease (in particular the whole spectrum of atherosclerotic ischaemic coronary artery disease, essential hypertension under treatment, and also patients with chronic heart failure under medication) and with other associated chronic pathologies, with obvious effects on the management of the pandemic with modern / distance means (e-Health) of patients at high risk of mortality in contact with coronavirus. Given the Covid-19 Pandemic, all the above complex cardiovascular patients are under the obligation to stay in the house isolated and can no longer come to standard clinical and paraclinical monitoring and control visits. Therefore, a remote management solution (tele-medicine) of these patients must be found. The Investigators endeavour is to create an electronic platform to communicate with these patients and offer solutions for their cardiovascular health issues (including psychological and religious problems due to isolation). The Investigators intend to create this platform for communicating with a patient and stratify their complaints in risk levels. A given specialist will sort and classify their needs on a scale, based on specific algorithms (derived from the clinical European Cardiovascular Guidelines), and generate specific protocols varying from 911 like emergencies to cardiological advices or psychological sessions. These could include medication changing of doses, dietary advices or exercise restrictions. Moreover, in those patients suspected of COVID infection, special assistance should be provided per protocol.
