Brief Summary

Natural history multicenter, prospective, observational registry with 10-year follow-up

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is an under-diagnosed and poorly understood condition that frequently affects young women without conventional cardiovascular (CV) risk factors and can result in myocardial infarction (MI), cardiac arrest, and death. This condition has not been adequately studied, and there are no randomized controlled trials to guide treatment. Furthermore, SCAD has been frequently misdiagnosed due to the current "gold-standard" coronary angiography limitations. As such, there are uncertainties with the diagnosis and management of SCAD patients. Therefore, the investigators propose a large prospective multicenter Canadian SCAD Study to ascertain the natural history of predisposing arteriopathies and treatment strategy on short and long-term CV outcomes to design future randomized controlled trials.

This is a multicenter, prospective, international, observational natural history study with a planned total enrolment of 3,000 patients with SCAD. The investigators plan to recruit patients from major cardiac catheterization centers across Canada and several centers in the United States and internationally. The research team successfully enrolled 750 patients prospectively in the "Canadian SCAD Cohort Study" from 22 sites in North America. This current study will be an extension of that study, now named the "Canadian SCAD Study." It will continue enrolment for a total of 3,000 patients internationally (from \>35 sites). Detailed baseline demographics, targeted history for precipitating stressors and predisposing conditions, and investigations for predisposing conditions will be performed during the study. Patients will be prospectively followed long-term for up to 10 years for CV events. The study is approved, allowing potential participants to be enrolled using an electronic consent form irrespective of their geographic location and directly communicating with the study team at UBC.
