Ultrathin DES in Complex PCI Scenarios: the ULTRA a Multicenter Study
Italy1,000 participantsStarted 2019-01-01
Plain-language summary
ULTRA is a multicenter, observational, retrospective registry, enrolling consecutive patients treated with ultrathin coronary DES (coronary stent with strut thickness \< 70 um) for coronary bifurcation lesions, left main disease, chronic total coronary occlusion, and in-stent restenosis regardless of their clinical presentation. Target lesion failure (TLF a composite endpoint of cardiovascular death, target vessel myocardial infarction, target lesion revascularization and definite stent thrombosis) will be the primary end point, while its single components will be the secondary ones along with all-cause death, all acute myocardial infarction (excluding peri-procedural AMI), target vessel revascularization and BARC major bleedings (BARC 3-5). Due to the retrospective, observational nature of the registry, no formal sample size estimation is required. Patients complying with detailed inclusion criteria and with a minimum follow up of 6 months will be enrolled.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
