Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential association of coronary artery geometry, based on coronary CT angiography (CCTA), with the complexity and the severity of coronary atherosclerosis.
The registry aims to follow clinically all consecutive patients treated by percutaneous coronary interventions at hospital & university Fribourg.
Some data exist about the efficacy and safety of rotational atherectomy, intravascular lithotripsy and excimer laser to modify calcified plaques. However there is no direct randomized comparison between these three tools in this scenario. The aim of this pilot randomized trial is to compare the safety and efficacy of these three techniques during PCI of moderate to severe calcified lesions.
This study is a prospective, multi-center single arm registry trial, planning to enroll 785 subjects. All subjects will receive clinical follow-up at 1 month, 6 month, 9 month and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 year after index procedure. The primary endpoint will be target lesion failure (TLF) at 1 year after index procedure,which will be analyzed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the device.
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory disease associated with an increased risk of myocardial infarction (MI). Using coronary computer tomography angiogram (CCTA), it is found that a significantly higher prevalence of high-risk coronary plaque (non-calcified plaque [NCP]), supporting the notion that more aggressive cardiovascular (CV) evaluation strategy should be considered in these patients. Carotid ultrasound screening in this population may be a better alternative than traditional risk score to identify patients at high CV risk as the latter underestimated CV risk. Previous study from our group have demonstrated that achieving treatment target (minimal disease activity [MDA]) can prevent progression of carotid atherosclerosis. Nevertheless, 38% of this Treat to Target (T2T) cohort still had carotid plaque progression. Project description it is hypothesized that combination of a T2T stratgy together with high-intensity rosuvastatin treatment (Group 1: T2T-statin group) is more effective in preventing progression of coronary and carotid atherosclerosis than T2T stratgy alone (Group 2: T2T-only group) in high-risk PsA patients with carotid plaque. The primary outcome is to ascertain the effect of T2T strategy with high-intensity rosuvastain (Group 1: T2T-statin group) on the change in CIMT over a period of 12 months compared with T2T strategy alone (Group 2: T2T-only group)
The objective of this post-approval study is to confirm that the clinical performance of the Orsiro stent in a real-world setting is similar to the clinical performance observed for Orsiro in the BIOFLOW-V Investigational Device Exemption pivotal trial, as a condition of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval (P170030).
This study evaluates the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a therapy-assisted internet-based intervention in patients with ischemic heart disease and co-morbid depression and anxiety referred for cardiac rehabilitation. Half of the patients will receive the intervention and the other half usual care. We hypothesize that the intervention will lead to a reduction in patients' symptoms of depression and anxiety and be cost-effective.
To assess and compare the demographic variables, periodontal parameters, cardiac parameters and the expression of periodontal viruses (CMV, HSV and EBV) and inflammatory biomarkers(PTX-3, TLR-2 & TLR-4) in periodontally healthy and generalized periodontitis patients with and without coronary artery disease(CAD).
The goal of the study is to assess the prevalence of contrast-associated acute kidney injury in patients with stable coronary artery disease, ST-elevation myocardial infarction and unstable angina/NSTEMI, assess the risk factors of contrast-induced acute kidney injury development and the influence of contrast-induced kidney injury on 1-year prognosis.
