Filter by:The TAXUS Libertē Post-Approval Study is an FDA-mandated prospective, multi-center study designed to collect real-world safety and clinical outcomes in approximately 4,200 patients receiving one or more TAXUS Liberté Paclitaxel-Eluting Stents and prasugrel as part of a dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) drug regimen. This study will also contribute patient data to an FDA-requested and industry-sponsored research study that will evaluate the optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT Study).
There remains a large gap between ideal and actual care provided to patients with chronic diseases. Performance feedback reports are often used as a foundation for quality improvement interventions. There have been hundreds of trials investigating the use of feedback reports; the important question to ask now is not whether performance feedback reports can help to improve quality of care, but how to optimize feedback interventions to accomplish that goal. The purpose of this study is to test whether a theory-based intervention added to feedback reports sent to primary care providers can result in improved outcomes for patients with chronic disease.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether the outcome of treatment with CoroflexTM Please stent is not inferior to the outcome of treatment with TAXUS stent.
The Stereotaxis Niobe® II Magnetic Navigation System (MNS) is designed to direct and digitally control catheter and guidewire based therapeutic and diagnostic devices along complex trajectories within the heart and coronary vasculature. Navigation using vectors acquired from the CT Co-registration feature of Navigant™ provides clinical benefits for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) by decreasing the amount of contrast used during complex PCI procedures.
In which CHD patients with high risk of CV complications are different doses of LIPRIMAR used? For this purpose, data on hyperlipidemia will be elicited over and above the basic nosographic and demographic data, concomitant diseases and cardiovascular risk factor.
To evaluate product performance and safety of the Catheter Design for the treatment of a single coronary lesion.
This study is a sub-study of GRAVITAS (clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT00645918). The purpose of this study is to assess which genes influence residual platelet reactivity on standard dose clopidogrel therapy, and also to determine whether certain genes influence the incremental change in platelet reactivity with high-dose clopidogrel maintenance dosing in patients who have high residual platelet reactivity on standard dosing.
Disruption of an atherosclerotic plaque is responsible for at least two-thirds of acute coronary syndrome. Thus, identification of plaques vulnerable to rupture has become important. The natural history of individual plaques is unknown and needs to be established. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography is a useful noninvasive imaging modality for assessing coronary plaque characteristics. Using MDCT, the researchers prospectively investigate the relationship between the characterization of coronary plaques and cardiovascular events in a large multicenter study.
The main purpose of this study is to investigate progression of late complications of diabetes during the last ten years in a well characterized cohort of type 1 diabetes with a long duration of the disease, and to define factors responsible for the progression of late complications.
The purpose of this study is to see whether apadenoson is as effective as adenosine when used as a pharmacological stress agent in myocardial SPECT-Imaging to detect defects in the supply of blood to the heart muscle (myocardial perfusion defects). The study will also look at whether apadenoson is better tolerated than adenosine when used in SPECT-MPI.
