Filter by:The containment associated with the VIDOC-19 pandemic creates an unprecedented societal situation of physical and social isolation. Our hypothesis is that in patients with chronic diseases, confinement leads to changes in health behaviours, adherence to pharmacological treatment, lifestyle rules and increased psychosocial stress with an increased risk of deterioration in their health status in the short, medium and long term. Some messages about the additional risk/danger associated with taking certain drugs in the event of COVID disease have been widely disseminated in the media since March 17, 2020, the date on which containment began in France. This is the case, for example, for corticosteroids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs but also for converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE inhibitors) and angiotensin II receptor antagonists (ARBs2). These four major classes of drugs are widely prescribed in patients with chronic diseases, diseases specifically selected in our study (corticosteroids: haematological malignancies, multiple sclerosis, Horton's disease; ACE inhibitors/ARAs2: heart failure, chronic coronary artery disease). Aspirin used at low doses as an anti-platelet agent in coronary patients as a secondary prophylaxis after a myocardial infarction can be stopped by some patients who consider aspirin to be a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. Discontinuation of this antiplatelet agent, which must be taken for life after an infarction, exposes the patient to a major risk of a new cardiovascular event. The current difficulty of access to care due to travel restrictions (a theoretical limit in the context of French confinement but a priori very real), the impossibility of consulting overloaded doctors, or the cancellation of medical appointments, medical and surgical procedures due to the reorganization of our hospital and private health system to better manage COVID-19 patients also increases the risk of worsening the health status of chronic patients who by definition require regular medical monitoring. Eight Burgundian cohorts of patients with chronic diseases (chronic coronary artery disease, heart failure, multiple sclerosis, Horton's disease, AMD, haemopathic malignancy, chronic respiratory failure (idiopathic fibrosis, PAH) haemophilia cohort) will study the health impact of the containment related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
New-generation metallic drug-eluting stents represent the standard of care among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Currently, few data are available as regards to the safety and efficacy of the Cre8 amphilimus-eluting stent (Cre8 AES, Alvimedica, Instanbul, Turkey) in comparison with the biodegradable polymer everolimus-eluting stent (Synergy EES, Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA, USA). Results from randomized trials and meta-analyses consistently indicate that prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after PCI reduces ischemic events, but invariably conveys an excess of clinically relevant bleeding, which is proportional to the duration of treatment. It has been estimated, indeed, that for every non-fatal ischemic event avoided with prolonged DAPT, two or more clinically relevant bleeding events have to be expected. Given the trade-off between benefits and risks and the lack of mortality benefit in favor of prolonged DAPT, expert consensus suggests that DAPT duration should be individualized based on ischemic versus bleeding risks. At this regard, the DAPT score has been recently proposed as standardized tool to identify patients who derive benefit or lack from a prolonged course of DAPT. However, a prospective assessment of the DAPT score is lacking and whether a personalized duration of DAPT based on the DAPT score improves the net clinical benefit remains unknown. The objective of the study is to compared the safety and the efficacy of the Cre8 AES with the Synergy EES and a personalized DAPT duration based on the DAPT score with a standard DAPT duration among patients undergoing PCI.
