Can Clinical and Functional Outcomes Be Improved with an Intelligent "Internet Plus"-Based Full Disease Cycle Remote Ischemic Conditioning Program in Acute ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention? Rational

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is associated with a high incidence of complications as well as a considerable hospitalization rate and economic burden. Preliminary evidence suggests that remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is a promising non-invasive intervention that may effectively and safely reduce myocardial infarct size, subsequent cardiac events and complications, and mortality. However, RIC's cardio-protective effect remains under debate, especially for single timepoint RIC programs. Adequately powered large-scale randomized controlled trials investigating clinical outcomes are thus needed to clarify the role of full disease cycle RIC programs. METHODS:The intelligent "Internet Plus"-based full disease cycle remote ischemic conditioning (i-RIC) trial is a pragmatic, multicenter, randomized controlled, parallel group, clinical trial. The term, intelligent "Internet Plus"-based full disease cycle, refers to smart devices aided automatic and real-time monitoring of remote ischemic pre-, per- or post-conditioning intervention for patients with STEMI undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Based on this perspective, 4700 STEMI patients from five hospitals in China will be randomized to a control and an intervention group. The control group will receive PCI and usual care, including pharmacotherapy, before and after PCI. The intervention group will receive pre-, per-, and post-operative RIC combined with long-term i-RIC over a one-month period in addition. A smartphone application, an automated cuff inflation/deflation device and "Internet Plus"-based administration will be used in the long-term phase. The primary outcome is the combined cardiac death or hospitalization for heart failure rate. Secondary outcomes include clinical and functional outcomes: major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events rate, all-cause mortality, myocardial reinfarction rate, readmission rate for heart failure and ischemic stroke rate, unplanned revascularization rate, plasma concentration of myocardial infarction-related key biomarkers, infarct size, cardiac function, cardiopulmonary endurance, health-related quality of life, total hospital length of stay, total medical cost, and compliance with treatment regime. DISCUSSION:The i-RIC trial is designed to test the hypothesis that clinical and functional outcomes can be improved with the i-RIC program in STEMI patients undergoing PCI. The concept of RIC is expected to be enhanced with this intelligent "Internet Plus"-based program focusing on the full disease cycle. If the i-RIC program results in superior improvement in primary and secondary outcomes, it will offer an innovative treatment option for STEMI patients and form the basis of future recommendations.
