Outcome
- Type
- SECONDARY
- Title
- Number of Death (Cardiac, Vascular, Non-cardiovascular)
- Description
Cardiac death (CD): Any death due to proximate cardiac cause (e.g. MI, low-output failure, fatal arrhythmia), unwitnessed death and death of unknown cause, all procedure related deaths including those related to concomitant treatment. Non-cardiovascular death: Any death not covered by the above definitions such as death caused by infection, malignancy, sepsis, pulmonary causes, accident, suicide or trauma.~For the All-Cause Mortality data, the denominator excludes participants who are lost-to-follow-up or withdrawn (by subject or physician) through a given timepoint without any DMR event (all death, MI and revascularization, respectively). If these participants were included in the denominator in each arm, that would equate to assuming that these participants are alive, potentially underestimating the death rate by inflating the denominator.
- Time frame
- 5 years
- Population
- ITT population. The number of participants analyzed includes subjects who had available follow up data at that time frame.
