Comparing angiography follow-up to clinical follow-up after heart procedures in high-risk patients

Routine Angiography Follow-Up After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in High-Risk Patients (The REVISE Trial)

NA · Second Affiliated Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University · NCT05923489

This study is trying to see if regular heart imaging check-ups after heart procedures help high-risk patients do better than just regular doctor visits.

What this trial studies

This study compares the clinical outcomes of routine angiography follow-up versus routine clinical follow-up in patients who have undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and are considered high-risk. Eligible participants are those aged 18 and older who have successfully undergone PCI and meet specific high-risk criteria. The study aims to determine if routine angiography follow-up leads to better health outcomes compared to standard clinical follow-up. The interventions being tested are routine angiography follow-up and routine clinical follow-up.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older who have undergone successful PCI and have at least two high-risk factors.

Not a fit: Patients who have undergone revascularization with bare metal stents or balloon angioplasty with non-drug-coated balloons may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could improve follow-up care and outcomes for high-risk patients after heart procedures.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have explored follow-up methods in cardiac patients, but this specific comparison of angiography versus clinical follow-up in high-risk patients is relatively novel.
