Filter by:This is a prospective, multi-center study to capture information on sensitivity and specificity of CADence using coronary angiogram as the gold standard, on subjects who are already scheduled for coronary angiography.
The purpose of this study is to explore the role of lipoprotein(a) and apolipoprotein(a) phenotype in fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular disease (CVD) events risk in coronary disease patients divided on the basis of management strategy - medical, endovascular or open cardiac surgery.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of XIENCE Xpedition Everolimus-Eluting 2.25mm Stent in real world practice in Japanese hospitals.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of XIENCE PRIME SV in real world practice in Japanese hospitals.
Sternal instability caused by mediastinitis is one of the most feared complications for cardiac surgery team for generating large commitments and functional damages to patients. Biomechanically, the contraction of abdominal muscles such as transverse abdominal, produces forces that result in a "corset-like" action and anterior thoracic cage muscles too may assist in stabilizing the sternum. Thus, strengthening the abdominal muscles might contribute to the recovery of functional aspects. The aim was to evaluate whether contraction and strengthening the abdominal muscles could improve lung function and respiratory muscle strength in patients with sternal instability.
The purpose of this study is to provide information on safety of same day discharge after uncomplicated percutaneous intervention (PCI) for stable angina pectoris in Norwegian clinical practice. The investigators also think that is in patients interest to stay as short time as possible in hospital and this will be measured using standardised quality of life questionnaires.
The FANTOM I pilot study is intended to assess safety of the Fantom Bioresorbable Coronary Scaffold in native coronary arteries.
Post marketing surveillance (PMS) study. 200 patients will be enrolled in a prospective, multi center, randomized, two-arm, open label, and controlled, enrolling patients with multi vessel atherosclerotic coronary artery disease, scheduled to undergo Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with arterial grafting of IMA to LAD, one saphenous vein graft (SVG) to the right territory and one or more SVGs to the left territory. Of all vein grafts, one will be selected randomly to receive treatment with VEST and another designated Control.
CrossBoss First is a single-blind randomized controlled trial that will randomize 246 patients undergoing clinically-indicated Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention, to upfront use of the CrossBoss catheter vs. antegrade guidewire escalation strategy The "CrossBoss First" study has two primary objectives. The primary efficacy objective is to compare the procedure time required to cross the CTO or abort the procedure with a CrossBoss first vs. antegrade wire escalation strategy. The investigators hypothesize that upfront use of the CrossBoss catheter will be associated with shorter procedure time required for CTO crossing compared with an antegrade wire escalation strategy. The primary safety objective is to compare the frequency of procedural major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) with upfront use of CrossBoss vs. a guidewire escalation strategy. The investigators hypothesize that upfront use of the CrossBoss catheter will be associated with similar incidence of MACE compared with an antegrade wire escalation strategy. The secondary endpoints are: (1) technical and procedural success4-6; (2) total procedure time (defined as the interval between administration of local anesthesia for obtaining vascular access and removal of the last catheter); (3) fluoroscopy time to cross the CTO and total fluoroscopy time; (4) total air kerma radiation exposure; (5) total contrast volume; and (6) number of wires, microcatheters, balloons, and stents used.
This study evaluates in vivo intracoronary imaging using intravascular ultrasound and optical coherence tomography and safety and efficacy of new generation fully bioresorbable vascular scaffolds in four well defined systemic autoimmune (rheumatoid arthritis, mixed connective tissue disease, systemic sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus) and concomitant coronary disease patients.
