Filter by:Physiology-based decision-making about the need for revascularisation in patients with stable coronary heart disease has consistently proven better clinical outcomes than a merely anatomical approach. However, against the current recommendations, revascularisation in most of patients with chronic coronary syndromes still relies on coronary angiography alone. The increase in costs and in procedural complexity of wire-based physiology may explain the latter. Therefore, a novel non-invasive functional quantitative flow ratio (QFR) index was created in order to solve it. A retrospective and multicentre study is performed to assess the 5-year prognosis of patients undergoing coronary angiography through a centralized QFR analysis. Consecutive participants with confirmed or suspected diagnosis of stable coronary disease who underwent a coronary angiography between 01/01/2015 and 12/31/2015 were included. Aims of the study: - To evaluate the prognosis of stable coronary disease depending on the functional assessment of coronary artery disease. - To determine the % of percutaneous coronary interventions that could be avoided if this study had been carried out through functional assessment of coronary artery disease based on 3-dimensional vessel reconstruction.
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. In high-income countries, approximately seventy percent of cardiovascular diseases cases are attributable to modifiable risk factors, with metabolic risk factors (obesity, cholesterol) and tobacco use being the most closely associated. Secondary prevention of coronary disease is considered essential, since it has contributed significantly to the reduction of morbidity and mortality, by facilitating the adoption and adherence to healthy behaviors, promoting an active lifestyle, and increasing adherence to pharmacological treatment. Information and communication technologies have been increasingly incorporated into health care systems, including the innovative provision of Cardiac Rehabilitation through a mobile phone or m-health interventions. M-health technology can provide evidence-based guidance in an interactive format that is attractive, easy to use, and reduces healthcare costs. The objective of this study is to evaluate, through a randomized controlled clinical trial, the effect of an intervention based on a web application of health, mobile Health, on lifestyle (diet, physical activity, and nicotine dependence) and therapeutic adherence in people with coronary heart disease. The sample will consist of 200 participants, 100 in the intervention group and 100 in the usual care group that will be evaluated at the beginning and 3, 6, and 12 months after hospital discharge regarding sociodemographic, clinical, cardiovascular risk factors, lifestyle, and therapeutic adherence characteristics. The educational intervention, monitoring, and self-monitoring will be carried out using a web-based m-Health tool, mobile phone application. The quantitative primary results will be compared between the two groups using analysis of covariance, adjusting for age and sex. Multivariate analysis will be carried out to examine the association of the intervention with life habits, control of cardiovascular risk factors as well as the evolution after discharge in respect of cardiovascular events, emergency and re-entry views.
Prospective, single-center, double blind, double dummy, randomized trial. Platelet function tests and adenosine levels were assessed at baseline and 15 days after taking Ticagrelor with Prasugrel placebo or Prasugrel with Ticagrelor placebo in stable patients with coronary artery disease
Sugammadex is frequently used to reverse the effects of neuromuscular blocking drugs. The recommended doses are 2 mg/kg or 4 mg/kg depending upon the depth of neuromuscular blockade. Clinical studies and experience have suggested that smaller doses may be effective. The purpose of this observational study is to determine the minimal effective dose of sugammadex by administering 50 mg every 5 minutes until the train-of-four ratio is 0.9 in a cohort of cardiac surgery patients, and to determine the duration of action by measuring the train-of-four every hour for up to 6 hours following reversal.
Investigational, prospective, multi-site, first in human, feasibility evaluation
The objective is to assess long-term clinical outcomes of patients in whom intervention of coronary lesions was deferred due to negative fractional flow reserve (FFR) and negative Instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) in a real-world patient population and to identify factors associated with deferred target lesion failure.
Prospective, single-arm, multicenter study of patients with an intermediate pre-test probability of CAD and positive exercise stress tests referred for invasive angiography. Patients underwent an invasive diagnostic procedure (IDP) with measurement of fractional flow reserve (FFR) and index of microvascular resistance (IMR) in at least one coronary vessel. The objective was to determine the false discovery rate (FDR) of cardiac exercise stress tests with both FFR and IMR as references.
This is a single-center, single-blind, randomized parallel superiority trial comparing two groups; Sternum GuardTM as the treatment arm and Bone Wax as the active control group. Both investigated modalities are materials used during sternotomy for covering the sewn sternal edge. The primary outcomes of this study comprised of four parameters; namely surgical site infection (superficial or deep infection), sternal dehiscence, hemostatic effect, and surgeon's satisfaction rate. The first three primary outcomes were assessed during the operation, at the end of the hospital stay, 14 days, and 30-days postoperative.
Depersonalized multi-centered registry initiated to analyze dynamics of non-infectious diseases after SARS-CoV-2 infection in population of Eurasian adult patients.
This cohort study will measure how severe is the coronary artery disease (CAD), at time of CAD diagnosis, clinically and angiographically in the different cohorts of newly diagnosed diabetes and prediabetes versus normal glycemia patients in the study center.
