Conditions

A Total of 234 Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome Who Will Undergo OPCAB.

Keywords

Statin, coronary artery bypass grafting, off-pump surgery, acute coronary syndrome

Brief summary

Periprocedural treatment with high-dose statins is known to have cardioprotective and pleiotropic effects, such as anti-thrombotic and anti-inflammatory actions. -Objective: to determine whether preoperative rosuvastatin loading is independently associated with reduced myocardial ischemia and clinical outcomes in patients with stable angina undergoing isolated off-pump coronary bypass (OPCAB) in patients with acute coronary syndrome. Study design * Prospective, double-blinded, single-center study of each 117 subjects enrolled * Subjects with acute coronary syndrome who meet all inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled preoperatively. * Eligible subjects will be randomized 1:1 to A) High-dose rosuvastatin (n=117) vs. B) Placebo (n=117). * The amount of preoperative administration of high-dose rosuvastatin will be 60mg of a total * All subjects will undergo OPCAB procedure. - The primary and secondary endpoints will be compared at 30 days and 2 years postoperatively between two groups

Interventions

DRUGRosuvastatin

Patients will be randomized in a ratio of 1:1 to A) High-dose rosuvastatin vs. B) Placebo. A) Rosuvastatin group : Administration of 40mg of rosuvastatin PO 12 hours before surgery and 20mg of rosuvastatin PO 2hours before surgery and 10mg of rosuvastatin PO daily at postoperative period. B) Placebo group : Administration of placebo at 12 hours and 2 hours before surgery and 10mg of rosuvastatin PO daily at postoperative period.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Major adverse cardiac events (MACEs)30 days after OPCABMajor adverse cardiac events (MACEs), which include the following: death from all causes, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), and repeat revascularization by percutaneous intervention or bypass surgery within 30 days after OPCAB.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The degree of myocardial ischemia and inflammatoryimmediate, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 7 days after OPCABThe degree of myocardial ischemia and inflammatory changes assessed by blood sampling and specific tests (CK-MB, Troponin T, ESR, CRP, hs-CRP) at the early period after OPCAB.
