Bivalirudin in Stable Ischemic Heart Disease Patients Undergoing PCI
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Prolonging infusions may decrease myocardial damage associated with bivalirudin use during primary PCI. The investigators hypothesized that continuing the bivalirudin infusion commenced during the procedure at the PCI recommended dose for 4 hours would prevent myocardial damage.

Detailed Description
Bivalirudin is widely used as an anticoagulant during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary heart disease. Prolonging infusions may decrease myocardial damage associated with bivalirudin use during primary PCI . However, whether prolonging infusions of bivalirudin could prevent ischemic complications is unknown. The investigators examined the effects of prolonged drug infusion after elective PCI. The investigators hypothesized that continuing the bivalirudin infusion commenced during the procedure at the PCI recommended dose for 4 hours would prevent myocardial damage.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: heparin For the heparin group, a bolus dose of 100 U/kg was administered according to current guidelines. |
Drug: Heparin
Heparin is used in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.
|
Experimental: not prolong infusion Bivalirudin Bivalirudin was given as a bolus of 0.75mg/kg followed by infusion of 1.75mg/kg/h during the PCI procedure . |
Drug: bivalirudin
Bivalirudin is an alternative to heparin in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

Experimental: prolong infusion bivalirudin Bivalirudin was given as a bolus of 0.75mg/kg followed by infusion of 1.75mg/kg/h during the PCI procedure and prolong for 4 hours after procedure. |
Drug: bivalirudin
Bivalirudin is an alternative to heparin in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.
