Filter by:The overall objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ezetimibe (SCH 058235/MK-0653) 10 mg administered daily in conjunction with atorvastatin in participants with Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) or in participants with coronary heart disease (CHD) or multiple cardiovascular risk factors (≥2 risk factors) and primary hypercholesterolemia not controlled by a starting dose (10 mg/day) of atorvastatin. The primary hypothesis is that the coadministration of ezetimibe 10 mg/day with atorvastatin therapy will result in a significantly greater proportion of participants achieving target low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (≤100 mg/dL) when compared to the atorvastatin administered alone.
This is a randomized pharmacological study evaluating the effects of ivabradine in patients with residual angina after PCI. The role of ivabradine in patients with angina, without systolic dysfunction, is not yet clear. The investigators performed in all patients an echostress to evaluate the effects of therapy with ivabradine after 30 days in terms of exercise tolerance and diastolic function.
The primary intention of the study is to examine the effect of aged garlic extract (AGE) on the absolute change in coronary artery calcium (CAC). The second intention is to examine the effect of AGE on inflammatory biomarkers and microcirculation. It is a double blind placebo controlled study. The participants will ingest AGE during a period of one year. The CAC will be controlled by computer tomography (CT) scan; the inflammatory biomarkers through blood sample test and the microcirculation through laser speckel imagining and laser doppler before and after the one year period of AGE ingestion.
This randomised, controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Cardiac Shockwave Therapy (CAST-HF) in patients with ischaemic heart failure requiring surgical revascularization. The main questions to answer are: - Does cardiac shockwave therapy, in addition to CABG surgery, improve left ventricular ejection fraction? - Is cardiac shockwave therapy in addition to CAGB surgery safe? Participants will be randomised into intervention (cardiac shockwave therapy) and control (sham treatment with an inactive applicator) groups.
Low motivation to exercise is one of the barriers to participation in cardiac rehabilitation. Fear of activity after a cardiac event is associated with low levels of physical activity. This study aimed to develop and validate a scale to measure fear of activity in patients with coronary artery disease.
The Philips Angio-iFR medical software device is intended to provide information on the functional significance of a coronary artery lesion to provide guidance on diagnostic decisions similar to that obtained through invasive measures of iFR and FFR. The software application uses the vessel geometry obtained from a coronary angiographic image together with a lumped parameter physiological model to provide the associated iFR and FFR estimates.
To improve the cardiopulmonary endurance in Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) patients. Internationally in cardiac hospital facility of cardiac rehabilitation is available to improve the patient's physical activity and decrease the list of secondary complications. But in Pakistan ideal phase II cardiac rehabilitation is limited available in limited hospitals due to cost issues and limited resources for monitoring during exercise. A Randomized control trail Study was conducted in Armed force institute of cardiology (AFIC) Rawalpindi. The Total sample size was 74 post (CABG). The aim of study was to influence of Tai chai on coronary artery bypass surgery patients.
To examine the dynamics of 24 - hours ECG monitoring parameters (Holter monitoring) in patients with ischaemic heart disease (IHD) before and after treatment of voiding dysfunctions resulted from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with the indications for either conservative or operative treatment. A total of eighty-three 57-to-81-year-old (mean age 70.4±5.75 years) patients with BPH and accompanying IHD were examined at the Institute of Urology and Human Reproductive Health and Clinic of Cardiology of the Sechenov University.
The main purpose of this single-center study is to determine the spectrum and levels of cardiospecific circulating microRNAs in patients with different stages of atherosclerosis according to 640-slice multispiral computed tomography (MSCT).
This study evaluates estimate impact of introducers length during endovascular coronary procedures on rate of a radial artery occlusion. For half of participants will use short introducers, while for other will use long introducers during transradial coronary intervention.
