Filter by:In this trial contactless heart rate, electrocardiography and breathing rate measurements are elevated during car simulation in cardiac rehabilitation via automotive sensors and camera.
Research questions: 1. What is the absolute risk reduction for in-hospital major adverse cardiac events (MACE) associated with the use of dual anti-platelet therapy as compared with aspirin alone in this population? 2. What is the absolute risk increase for clinically significant bleeding during the same period associated with the use of dual anti-platelet therapy as compared with aspirin alone in this population? In brief the design of the study is as follows: - We will study patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery within four years of coronary stenting. - We will record the anti-platelet agents taken by patients before, during and after surgery. - We will record cardiac and bleeding events that occur whilst the patient is in hospital. - We will use the statistical technique of propensity scoring to match patients who have similar risk factors and who received different anti-platelet regimens. - We will compare the incidence of cardiac events and bleeding in the matched groups.
