To compare the efficacy of high dose rosuvastatin preloading vs placebo before primary PCI in terms of MACE at 30 days

Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) is a term widely used to describe tachycardial dysrhythmias, paroxysmal SVT (PSVT) is a narrow term including only AV nodal re-entrant tachycardia (AVNRT) and atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardia (AVRT), both of which can cause discomfort and, in some cases, life-threatening symptoms.
Usually Carotid sinus massage is done to lower the pulse rate and after the standard time specific verapamil dose is administered. In this study after carotid sinus massage Conventional Valsalva or modified Valsalva maneuver will be randomly applied. In case, the normal sinus rhythm (NSR) is not achieved then verapamil of or adenosine dose will be administered to the patients after after taking the consent.

Direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have provided benefits to patients requiring anticoagulation for certain diseases by decreasing the burden of subcutaneous injections and the requirement for frequent monitoring through regular blood tests. DOACs do not require monitoring, have a more predictable pharmacokinetic (dosing) profile and have fewer interactions with other drugs. Various studies have reported the efficacy and safety of different dual-acting anticoagulants around the globe. However, there is little data available from Pakistan. Therefore, investigators propose this study to assess the efficiency and safety of rivaroxaban and clopidogrel along with aspirin in patients suffering from acute coronary syndrome. The objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy of dual anticoagulants i.e. aspirin plus rivaroxaban versus aspirin plus clopidogrel in patients suffering from acute coronary syndrome in terms of secondary prophylaxis. All the patient records will be documented in Case Report Form (CRF) at each visit. All data will be recorded in individual source documents. All CRF information is to be filled in by site staff. If an item is not available or is not applicable, this fact should be indicated. Blank spaces should not be present unless otherwise directed. The study monitor will perform source data verification of data entered into the CRF. The data entered into the CRF will be subject to data validation checks for consistency and completeness by the data management group. All CRFs should be maintained on the system with details of any changes logged accordingly.
