AI-ECG Detection of Occlusion Myocardial Infarction at Emergency Department Triage (TRIACS)

Chest pain is among the most common reasons people attend an emergency department, and the electrocardiogram (ECG) recorded at triage is the first test used to decide who needs urgent treatment for a blocked coronary artery. Recognising the ECG patterns that indicate an acutely blocked artery is difficult. Many such patterns do not produce the classic ST-segment elevation, and identifying them reliably requires a level of ECG expertise that is not always available at the point of triage - particularly at night and among clinicians who are not cardiologists. Artificial intelligence (AI) models that read the 12-lead ECG have been shown in several retrospective studies, mainly from Western Europe and the United States, to identify acute coronary occlusion more sensitively than conventional interpretation. These models are now in clinical use in a number of health systems. Their performance has not been assessed in a prospectively enrolled, unselected Slovenian emergency department population, and diagnostic accuracy commonly declines when a model is applied outside the setting in which it was developed. TRIACS is a prospective, single-centre, observational external validation study in the Emergency Department of University Medical Centre Maribor. All consecutive adults presenting with symptoms suggestive of acute coronary syndrome who have a 12-lead ECG recorded at triage as part of routine care will be enrolled. Each triage ECG is analysed by the AI model. The model's output is withheld from all treating clinicians and plays no part in patient care; every patient receives standard guideline-directed management. The main aim is to measure how accurately the AI model identifies angiographically confirmed occlusion myocardial infarction in this population, and to compare its accuracy with the triage decision actually made by the clinical team. The study is therefore designed to inform an adoption decision in either direction, rather than to demonstrate a predetermined conclusion.

Aspirin 50mg vs 100mg Combined With P2Y12 Inhibitor After PCI

This is a randomized, open-label, active-controlled, non-inferiority clinical trial (the ASPIRE-LD trial) conducted in China. It aims to compare the efficacy and safety of low-dose aspirin (50 mg once daily) versus standard-dose aspirin (100 mg once daily), both in combination with a P2Y12 inhibitor, in patients who have successfully undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and plan to receive at least 12 months of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). A total of 2640 eligible patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either 50 mg or 100 mg of enteric-coated aspirin daily, plus a P2Y12 inhibitor (ticagrelor 90 mg twice daily or clopidogrel 75 mg once daily, prescribed according to routine clinical practice). All participants will be followed for 12 months after randomization. The primary goal is to verify that 50 mg aspirin is non-inferior to the 100 mg standard dose in preventing major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE: cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, definite/probable stent thrombosis, and ischemic stroke) at 12 months post-PCI. If non-inferiority is confirmed, the study will further test whether 50 mg aspirin reduces clinically relevant bleeding events (BARC type 2, 3, or 5) better than the standard dose. The study is sponsored by the First Hospital of Jilin University and will be carried out in 10-15 tertiary hospitals across China. Its findings will provide evidence for optimizing aspirin dosing in post-PCI DAPT.

Placebo-controlled Study of Single and Multiple Ascending Doses of UDP-003 in Healthy Human Participants and Followed by an Open-label Patient Cohort

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if UDP-003 is safe in healthy human participants and patients, assess the pharmacokinetics (PK)/pharmacodynamics (PD) of UDP-003 in healthy human participants and patients and its potential efficacy in patients. Researchers will compare UDP-003 to a placebo in a blinded manner. This first in human, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, prospective, single-centre trial with a modular dose-finding design will be conducted in 3 parts: * Part 1: 6 cohorts of 6 healthy participants receiving Single Ascending Doses (SADs), * Part 2: 3 cohorts of 12 healthy participants receiving Multiple Ascending Doses (MADs) (6 doses over 16 days), * Part 3: 1 cohort of up to 9 evaluable participants diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome (ACS; non-ST elevation myocardial infarction \[NSTEMI\] or unstable angina) at least 12 months post-event receiving multiple doses (6 administrations of the 25 mg/kg dose over 6 weeks). The planned duration of the study for each participant will be: * 4 weeks for SAD Participants (1-day treatment period, 4-week safety follow-up) * 6 weeks for MAD Participants (16-day treatment period,4-week safety follow-up) * 180 Days for MD Patients (6-week treatment period, 6-month safety follow-up) Prior to participants being randomised to panels of increasing doses, all safety data will be reviewed for completed panels.

Early Triple Lipid-Lowering Therapy With Bempedoic Acid After Acute Coronary Syndrome

This randomized clinical trial will evaluate whether starting bempedoic acid in addition to high-intensity statin therapy and ezetimibe within 72 hours after percutaneous coronary intervention improves low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) control in adults with acute coronary syndrome. Participants will receive either triple therapy with a high-intensity statin, ezetimibe, and bempedoic acid or standard dual therapy with a high-intensity statin and ezetimibe for 12 weeks. The primary outcome is the proportion of participants with LDL-C below 55 mg/dL at Week 12. Changes in lipid and inflammatory markers, medication adherence, and treatment-emergent adverse events will also be assessed.

Smartphone AI Assistance for Prehospital ECG Interpretation

Prehospital providers interpret 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) under time pressure and without immediate expert support. Missed acute coronary occlusion - occlusion myocardial infarction (OMI) - delays reperfusion, while false positive interpretations trigger unnecessary catheterization laboratory activations. Multimodal large language models (LLMs) available on any smartphone can now analyze a photographed ECG, and prehospital providers have begun using them spontaneously. No randomized trial has evaluated whether this practice improves diagnostic performance. This randomized controlled trial compares the diagnostic performance of prehospital providers interpreting ECG clinical vignettes with and without mandatory assistance from a single, version-locked smartphone large language model. Participants - paramedics, emergency medical technicians, nurses and physicians practicing in prehospital care in French-speaking Switzerland - are randomized 1:1 on a dedicated digital platform and answer 14 clinical vignettes presented in individually randomized order. Each vignette is built around a real, anonymized 12-lead ECG obtained during routine clinical care. The primary outcome is the proportion of vignettes for which the participant correctly identifies the presence or absence of an OMI. Secondary outcomes are sensitivity, specificity, and the accuracy of the prehospital priority decision level.

Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 Inhibitors With Statin for ACS Patients

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the leading cause of death globally, with a dominant contribution from atherosclerotic CVD (ASCVD). * Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a key method for revascularization in ASCVD patients, improving their prognosis. With the continuous advancement of PCI in recent years, its indications have become increasingly diverse. However, patients still face a pronounced residual risk post-PCI. Research indicates that plaque vulnerability and other risk factors contribute to a 15%-20% rate of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) within one year following PCI. * The pathological mechanism of atherosclerosis is closely tied to the abnormal deposition of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) beneath the vascular endothelium. This lipid particle can provoke a chronic inflammatory response in the vessel wall, eventually causing plaque formation. Moreover, the marked elevation of LDL-C levels is highly connected to the occurrence and progression of ASCVD. * Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common liver disease worldwide, with a prevalence of approximately 25% (range 14%-32%). * It is regarded as the hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and is strongly associated with obesity and diabetes mellitus (DM). * Cardiovascular (CV) disease is one of the leading causes of death in patients with MASLD * Statins are the cornerstone of lipid-lowering therapy, noticeably diminishing LDL-C levels by blockading HMG-CoA reductase. For patients following PCI, several guidelines suggest high-intensity statin therapy to reach a target LDL-C level of ≤1.4 mmol/L and a ≥50% decline from baseline. * However, even with intensive statin therapy, many post-PCI patients still exhibit LDL-C levels above the target limits. * Inhibitors of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9(PCSK9) notably decrease plasma LDL-C levels by preventing the binding of PCSK9 protein to LDL-C receptors (LDLR) on hepatocyte surfaces, thereby decreasing LDLR degradation. In 2019, guidelines for managing dyslipidemia from the ESC/EAS emphasize that PCSK9 inhibitors should be added for patients with insufficiently controlled LDL-C levels to achieve the target levels. * Combining PCSK9 inhibitors with statins has been proven to lead to a 60%-70% reduction in LDL-C levels. * Recently, a novel non-invasive parameter to assess steatosis has been developed using the Fibroscan® which is a vibration-controlled transient elastography (VCTE™) device used to assess liver elasticity which is related to liver fibrosis. This novel physical parameter, based on the properties of ultrasonic signals acquired by the Fibroscan®, is called the controlled attenuation parameter (CAP). It uses the postulate that fat affects ultrasound propagation, and is a measure of ultrasound attenuation at the central frequency of the Fibroscan * In this study, the investigators will demonstrate overall effect of PCSK9 inhibitors in combination with statins on MASLD and lipid levels for post-PCI patients, and to compare the degree of risk reduction with statin monotherapy.

Early Single Antiplatelet Therapy After IVUS-Guided PCI in Acute Coronary Syndrome

This is a prospective, open-label, multicenter, randomized, phase IV clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of early aspirin discontinuation followed by potent P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided drug-eluting stent implantation in patients with acute coronary syndrome. A total of 1,900 patients who achieve complete revascularization after IVUS-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and meet the predefined successful IVUS-guided PCI criteria will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the early single antiplatelet therapy group (Early SAPT: ticagrelor or prasugrel monotherapy) or the standard dual antiplatelet therapy group (Standard DAPT: aspirin plus ticagrelor or prasugrel). Randomization will be performed within 96 hours after completion of PCI, and clinical follow-up will be conducted at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after randomization. The primary endpoints are major adverse cardiovascular events, defined as a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, ischemia-driven target vessel revascularization, and definite or probable stent thrombosis occurring up to 12 months after randomization, and clinically relevant bleeding, defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 2, 3, or 5 bleeding occurring up to 12 months after randomization. This study aims to determine whether early P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy is non-inferior to standard dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for ischemic events and is superior in reducing clinically relevant bleeding.

Prospective Cohort of Acute Cardiology Referrals in an Ambulatory Day-Hospital Setting

Suspected acute or subacute cardiovascular diseases-including chest pain, dyspnea, and palpitations-are among the most common reasons for unscheduled emergency department visits and pre-hospital referrals. Despite this high clinical burden, the diagnostic yield is often limited, with a frequent mismatch between initial clinical suspicion and final diagnosis, contributing to substantial healthcare utilization and hospitalization rates. Current evidence is largely focused on specific conditions such as acute coronary syndromes, heart failure, arrhythmias, or pulmonary embolism, and rarely integrates the full spectrum of clinical, biological, and imaging data obtained during initial evaluation. To address this gap, we will establish a prospective cohort of all consecutive patients referred to the ambulatory day-hospital cardiology unit at Lariboisière University Hospital. This unit acts as a specialized downstream referral structure within the emergency care pathway, receiving patients after triage by emergency physicians, pre-hospital regulation services (SAMU), mobile intensive care units (SMUR), or emergency departments. Although it does not capture all suspected cardiovascular emergencies, it represents a selected real-world population deemed to require specialized acute cardiology assessment. The primary objective is to assess the frequency of cardiac conditions diagnosed in this cohort. Secondary objectives include characterization of patient profiles and diagnostic pathways; evaluation of the diagnostic and prognostic performance of clinical, biological, imaging, and multimodal parameters using final Heart Team diagnosis as reference; analysis of prior health history and healthcare utilization; and assessment of the medico-economic burden of suspected acute cardiovascular disease. The study will further support the development of a dedicated biobank and the validation of next-generation biomarkers, including AI-driven and voice-based markers, as well as decision-support algorithms for binary classification of cardiac involvement. Through integration of multimodal data and linkage with national health records, this approach aims to improve diagnostic accuracy, risk stratification, and understanding of the healthcare impact of acute cardiovascular presentations in a real-world setting.

Study of Women With Acute Coronary Syndromes and Nonobstructive Coronary Artery Disease

Approximately 600,000 women are treated for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) annually in the US. ACS includes heart attack and a milder form called unstable angina. Many of these women have angiograms of which 14-39% show no "significant" coronary artery disease (CAD, cholesterol plaque accumulation in arteries of the heart). The remaining majority of women with ACS have cholesterol plaque buildup which appears severe enough on angiography to limit blood flow to the heart. It is difficult to advise women with heart attacks and no major heart artery blockages on what to do if chest pain happens again. Additional studies are needed to find out why this sort of heart attack happens and to help doctors understand how to treat patients who have this problem in the best possible way. Some women with heart attacks who have no major blockage in heart arteries have cholesterol plaque in the arteries of the heart cannot be seen on angiography but can be seen using a newer technique called intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). IVUS involves creating pictures of the artery walls using ultrasound (sound waves) from within the artery itself. In some women without major heart artery blockage, heart attack is caused by low blood flow due to disease of smaller blood vessels which cannot be seen on angiography or IVUS. This problem can be found using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which can show blood flow to the heart. MRI may also be used to show where the heart has been damaged. The pattern of damage could suggest that a heart attack in a woman, who has no badly blocked heart arteries, happened for one (or more) of these reasons or another reason. The Study of Women with ACS and Non-obstructive CAD (SWAN) will use IVUS and MRI to help determine the reasons for heart attacks in women with no major blockages in heart arteries.

Study of the Long-term Effects of P2Y12 Inhibitor Monotherapy and Coagulation Markers After Percutaneous Coronary Angioplasty.

Patients who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are commonly treated with antiplatelet therapy to prevent stent thrombosis and recurrence of events. After an initial period of dual antiplatelet therapy, long-term treatment with a single P2Y12 inhibitor (such as clopidogrel, ticagrelor, or prasugrel) is often prescribed. However, the optimal drug and dose for long-term monotherapy remain uncertain, as patients may experience either insufficient platelet inhibition (leading to ischemic events) or excessive inhibition (increasing bleeding risk). The HI-TECH 2 study aims to identify the most appropriate type and dose of P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy to achieve a balanced level of platelet inhibition within a predefined therapeutic range. The study also seeks to better understand how blood coagulation activity evolves over time after PCI. This is a prospective, investigator-initiated, single-center, open-label study conducted in two phases. In Phase 1, patients receive stepwise reduced doses of ticagrelor or prasugrel to determine the optimal dose that most consistently achieves the desired level of platelet inhibition. In Phase 2, patients are randomly assigned to receive clopidogrel or the optimal doses of ticagrelor or prasugrel identified in Phase 1. The main question of the study is whether optimized ticagrelor or prasugrel regimens are more effective than standard-dose clopidogrel in achieving platelet inhibition within the target therapeutic window, as measured by validated platelet function tests. Additional objectives include evaluating the role of genetic factors in treatment response and assessing markers of coagulation activation over time. The results of this study may help personalize long-term antiplatelet therapy after PCI, improving the balance between reducing thrombotic risk and minimizing bleeding complications.

AI-Enhanced Single-Lead ECG Screening for Coronary Stenosis

It is a prospective, controlled, single-center, non-randomized, observational study. Two patient groups are planned for inclusion: the first - 200 patients with significant coronary artery stenosis confirmed by coronary angiography (CAG) or multislice computed tomography (MSCT) results; the second - a control group consisting of 200 patients without significant stenosis according to CAG or MSCT data. All study subjects will have a date of coronary artery imaging via CAG or MSCT with assessment of myocardial perfusion. Stress echocardiography tests or fractional flow reserve (FFR) assessment will be conducted as indicated. All patients included in the study will undergo ECG recording within 1 month before or after CAG or MSCT in standard lead I for 1 minute, followed by spectral analysis of the obtained data, which will be stored at the remote monitoring center of Sechenov University without being linked to the personal data of patients. A spectral analysis of the electrocardiogram will be performed using a continuous wavelet transform. The result of this study will be the identification of ECG parameters that correlate with significant coronary artery stenosis.

Point-of-Care Troponin Testing in the Emergency Department

The goal of this study is to evaluate whether a POC-guided testing strategy to exclude non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) in acute chest pain patients presenting at the emergency department (ED) can result in a shorter length of stay compared to the routine central laboratory testing strategy. Currently, most often two high-sensitivity troponin (hs-cTn) tests are required for exclusion of NSTEMI, and central laboratories are struggling to achieve the recommended turnaround time of 60 minutes. Novel POC hs-cTn testing technology can provide results in minutes, potentially reducing the ED length of stay. This may lead to a reduction in ED crowding, which is a growing worldwide healthcare problem, resulting in poorer patient outcomes. This study may therefore improve patient burden, ED staff workload, and lead to more efficient expenditure of healthcare resources. We will perform a prospective, cross-sectional, interventional, single-center, open label, randomized trial. All consecutive patients older than 18 years and younger than 75 years presenting at the UZ Leuven emergency department with chest pain or chest pain-equivalent symptoms suspected of an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) will be invited to participate in the study. After informed consent patients will be randomized into the point-of-care testing (POCT) group or the usual care group. Patients in the POCT group will undergo the novel POC test-guided strategy. In the POC strategy the first hs-cTnI test shortly after admission to the ED will be performed on the POC Atellica VTLi. The second test will be performed with the usual central laboratory hs-cTnT test. Patients in the usual care group will undergo the usual testing strategy with one or two hs-cTnT tests performed in the hospital's central laboratory.

triPle Oral thERapy With Bempedoic Acid vs uSual Care in Early Lipid Management of Patients With acUte coronAry synDromE

Early and intensive LDL-cholesterol (LDL-c) reduction is associated with improved short-term and long-term outcomes. Bempedoic acid is an oral ATP citrate lyase inhibitor that lowers LDL-c upstream of HMG-CoA reductase. When added to maximally tolerated statins, it has demonstrated significant LDL-c reduction and cardiovascular benefit, particularly in statin-intolerant or high-risk patients. However, evidence on early initiation of bempedoic acid during the index ACS hospitalization is currently lacking. The investigators therefore would like to see whether early (pre-discharge) initiation of an oral triple lipid-lowering therapy including bempedoic acid, high-intensity statin (HIS), and ezetimibe is superior to usual care in reducing LDL-c levels at 8 weeks after randomization in patients hospitalized for ACS.

Bivalirudin Versus Heparin During PCI in High Bleeding Risk Patients With Acute Coronary Syndromes

Background. Randomized data on the optimal parenteral anticoagulant during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in high bleeding risk (HBR) patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are lacking. Methods. BRIGHT-HBR is an investigator-sponsored, open-label, randomized controlled trial comparing bivalirudin vs. unfractionated heparin (UFH) monotherapy in HBR patients with ACS undergoing PCI. A total of 5270 HBR patients with a non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) or recent stabilized ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI, ≥48 hours after symptom onset) will be randomized 1:1 to bivalirudin or UFH at 70 sites in China. HBR is defined by the Academic Research Consortium (ARC)-HBR criteria. The primary composite endpoint is net adverse clinical events (NACE) at 30 days, the composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, urgent target-vessel revascularization, or BARC types 2, 3 or 5 bleeding, and the major secondary endpoint is BARC types 2, 3 or 5 bleeding. The study is powered to demonstrate that bivalirudin is superior to UFH monotherapy for NACE in ACS patients with HRB at 30 days after PCI. Conclusions. The BRIGHT-HBR randomized trial aims to provide evidence on whether bivalirudin reduces the incidence of NACE and clinically relevant bleeding compared with UFH monotherapy in patients with ACS who are at HBR undergoing PCI.

Impact of Non-medicalized ECG Practices Initiated by SAMU in Dispatch Strategies

The performance of an ECG by non-medicalized prehospital teams (firefighters, first responders, paramedic ambulances) is developing across the territory to cope with the increasing demand (SAMU calls) for a service that cannot meet it (limited Mobile Emergency and Resuscitation Unit - SMUR - teams). Early diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome is key to appropriate management. A delay in care can quickly lead to complications ranging from rhythm disorders to cardiac arrest. Furthermore, as with reperfusion in strokes, the earlier reperfusion treatment is initiated, the greater the beneficial effect in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Moreover, the main elements for diagnosing STEMI in the prehospital setting remain the ECG, along with the anamnesis (medical history) and clinical examination (typical pain). This is an observational, retrospective and single-center study (SAMU 91) carried out between September 1, 2023 and December 31, 2024. The inclusion criteria for our study were adult patients who had been regulated by SAMU 91 during a primary intervention and who had ST+ ACS registered in the eMUST registry. The main objective was to study the difference in the admission times of patients admitted to the emergency intensive care unit of cardiology or coronary angiography and presenting with ST+ ACS on the ECG performed by a primary SMUR team versus a non-medical team referred by the SAMU. The secondary objectives were to study the descriptive variables between the two groups (SMUR and non-medicalized vector), the typicity of pain, the mortality rate and the morbidity rate between the two groups.
