Filter by:This study includes patients with stable coronary artery disease without previously known myocardial infarction, and investigates the prevalence of clinically unrecognized myocardial damage and its prognostic implication.
The main purpose of this study is to observe the incidence of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), target vessel failure (TVF), target vessel revascularization (TVR) and stent thrombosis out to 5 years after the procedure in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with everolimus-eluting stents for unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) disease and lesions involving the ULMCA in Japan. The investigators will also establish a method of adjustment to the Japanese version of the SYNTAX score by conducting an assessment using the SYNTAX score recently reported in the US and Europe as well as the EuroSCORE, and by clarifying the differences of PCI procedures and treatment results in Japan with those reported in the US and Europe.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the (statistical) non-inferiority of iobitridol (Xenetix® 350) when compared to contrast agents with higher iodine concentrations, iopromide (Ultravist® 370) and iomeprol (Iomeron® 400) in terms of coronary CT scan evaluability (quality and interpretability of images).
The rationale of the present clinical trial is to study whether an invasive strategy in clinical stable patients over 80 years with NSTEMI/UAP may improve rates of death, reinfarction, stroke, need of urgent revascularisation, myocardial function and quality of life. The invasive approach involves coronary angiography with immediate evaluation for three different treatment options; 1. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), 2. Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) or 3. medical treatment. Clinical practice shows that older patients are commonly treated less vigorously than younger patients and the present guidelines are based on a considerably younger population.
In this study, we evaluate the acute coronary syndrome patients to see if there is correlation between platelet activity, genetic polymorphism (CYP2C19 and ABCB1), serum adipokines level, and Clopidogrel responsiveness.
To perform a randomized comparison between the Cypher Select+ stent and the Nobori stent in the treatment of unselected patients with ischaemic heart disease.
The study aimed to prospectively investigate the prevalence of myocardial scar on Dotarem-enhanced Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) in asymptomatic patients with type-2 Diabetes Mellitus and to assess its correlation with subclinical coronary artery disease on Cardiac Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA).
The purpose of the e-BioMatrix PMS registry is to capture clinical data of the BioMatrix (Biolimus A9-Eluting) stent system in relation to safety and effectiveness.
This study will determine whether the psychological and physical benefits of expressive writing extend to obese in-patients with Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD)referred to cardiac rehabilitation
The use of the IABP, in addition to standard care, in high-risk cardiac patients undergoing major noncardiac surgery is feasible and may result in improved perioperative outcomes at 30 days compared with standard care alone, while maintaining acceptable safety with respect to vascular accesss-related complications.
