Xience or Vision Stent Management of Angina in the Elderly

The treatment of complex coronary disease causing limiting symptoms of angina with drug-eluting stent technology will prove superior to bare metal stent technology, with respect to a combined endpoint of mortality, MI, requirement for target vessel revascularisation and severe haemorrhage, in patients aged 80 or above.

Inclusion criteria

  • AGE>80
  • Stable angina or acute coronary syndrome
  • Coronary narrowing suitable for stenting that is either ≥15mm long and/or ≤3mm diameter.
  • Any lesion with high risk of restenosis eg chronic total occlusion, bifurcation, severe calcification
  • Any left main stem lesion

Exclusion criteria

  • Acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction
  • Cardiogenic shock
  • Platelet count =50 x 109/mm3
  • Patient life expectancy < 1 year
  • Known allergies to clopidogrel, aspirin, heparin, stainless steel, IV contrast or stent drug elutant
  • Recent major GI haemorrhage (within 3 months)
  • Any previous cerebral bleeding episode
  • Participation in another investigational drug or device study
  • Patient unable to give consent
  • Clinical decision precluding the use of drug eluting stent

Primary outcomes

  1. Death/ Myocardial Infarction/Target Vessel Failure/Major Haemorrhage

    Time frame: 1 year

    This is a composite outcome measure consisting of multiple measures of the events of Death, Myocardial Infarction,Target Vessel Failure, and/or Major Haemorrhage

Secondary outcomes

  1. Angina status

    Time frame: 1 year

    This will be assessed in two ways:

    i) by interview according to the Canadian Cardiovascular Society classification

    ii) by patient self-assessment using the Seattle questionnaire

  2. Antianginal medication

    Time frame: 1 year

    This will be assessed using a single point scoring system, where a point is scored for each of the following:

    Nitrate (sublingual or spray) used 1 or mnore times during week prior to question Nitrate (oral) beta-blocker Calcium antagonist Use of Nicorandil

  3. Procedural success

    Time frame: 1 Year

    Defined as TIMI 3 flow and <30% stenosis in the main vessel and TIMI 3 flow in the side branch

  4. MACE (major adverse cardiovascular events)

    Time frame: 1 year

    Defined as death, myocardial infarction, or emergency (within 24 hours) coronary artery bypass grafting.

  5. In-hospital complications

    Time frame: 1 Year

    Major procedural complications include Death Myocardial infarction Emergency coronary artery bypass surgery Stroke Bleeding ('Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction)

    Minor procedural complications include Ventricular rhythm disorder (tachy or brady) requiring intervention (e.g defibrillation, DC cardioversion or temporary pacing) Bleeding Pseudoaneurysm requiring compression or surgery Vascular access complication extending hospital stay by 1 or more night Transient ischaemic attack Wire loss or fracture Stent loss Undeployed stent detachment from balloon

  6. Procedural cost

    Time frame: 1 Year

    The difference in procedural cost will be assessed using a composite of the number of, guidewires, balloons and stents opened or used and procedural time. Prolonged hospital stay is a further potential cost pressure in this age group.
