A Study of Microcirculatory Function in Type 2 Myocardial Infarction (T2MI)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this research is to find out if patients with Type 2 Myocardial Infarction (T2MI) without significant epicardial coronary artery disease (CAD) have a greater chance of having coronary microvascular disease (CMD).

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
T2MI Patients Patients with T2MI and no epicardial coronary stenosis >50% will be prospectively enrolled and undergo a routine standard of care coronary angiogram with coronary reactivity testing (CRT). |
Diagnostic Test: Coronary angiogram with coronary reactivity testing (CRT)
CRT is an angiography procedure (using X-ray) to examine the small blood vessels in the heart and how they respond to three drugs (adenosine, acetylcholine and nitroglycerin) as per clinical protocol.
|
Controls Patients with atypical chest pain and no obstructive disease on coronary angiogram who have been referred for investigation of suspected CMD and have a clinical indication for CMD testing will be retrospectively enrolled and data collected from a previous routine standard of care coronary angiogram with coronary reactivity testing (CRT) will be utilized. |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Coronary Flow Reserve (CFR) [Baseline]
The CFR will be calculated as a ratio of coronary flow at peak hyperemia /coronary flow at rest.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Backward Compression Wave (BCW) [Baseline]
The BCW is a measure of increased microvascular resistance during systole.
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Ability to give informed consent
-
Structurally normal heart (normal LV and RV function, no more than mild valvular heart disease)
-
For controls: atypical chest pain with indication for CMD testing
-
For T2MI: meet criteria for T2MI according to the 4th Universal definition of MI (rise/fall of troponin with at least 1 value >99th centile+ evidence of symptoms or signs of myocardial ischemia)
Exclusion Criteria:
-
Acute coronary event (evidence of plaque rupture, fissure or dissection on coronary angiogram)
-
Known to have angiographically significant CAD/pressure wire positive for epicardial CAD
-
Inability to receive heparin products
-
Allergy/contraindication to acetylcholine/adenosine/nitroglycerine products
-
Prior coronary artery bypass grafting
-
Pregnancy (if sexually active woman of reproductive age, need negative pregnancy test prior to proceeding with coronary angiography - this is standard of care in cath lab)
-
Asthma with prior ICU admission due to bronchospasm/need for invasive ventilation
