Filter by:Multicenter, retrospective registry to collect 9-12 month follow-up data to evaluate major adverse cardiac events in patients whom have undergone percutaneous coronary intervention and received either Taxus Liberte or Xience V.
The overall purpose of the FAME II trial is to compare the clinical outcomes, safety and cost-effectiveness of FFR-guided PCI plus optimal medical treatment (OMT) versus OMT alone in patients with stable coronary artery disease.
The purpose of this study is to document the safety and overall clinical performance of the Endeavor Resolute Zotarolimus-Eluting Coronary Stent System in a patient population with long lesion(s) and/or dual vessels requiring stent implantation.
A single center Pilot Clinical Registry Study of the" Acute Procedural" Safety and Efficacy of Stereotaxis PowerAssert(TM)RF Coronary Total Occlusion System assisted Angioplasty in the Treatment of Refractory Coronary Total Occlusions
A pharmacist follow-up procedure is under development. Patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) is being followed up by a pharmacist for one year with three meetings; at discharge from hospital, after three months and after one year. The evaluation is basically based on quantitative measures as achievement of therapeutic goals, number of drug related problems detected, hospitalisations etc. However, the patients' own experience with the follow-up procedure cannot be evaluated using these measures. Thus, a qualitative approach is needed. In this study, a total of four patients participating in the follow-up will be included and interviewed. A semistructured interview guide will be used. Interviews will be taped, transcribed and analyzed with the intention to explore how patients experience the follow-up from the pharmacist. A thoruough content analysis will be performed. Patients included must have met the pharmacist at least twice. The pharmacist in charge of the follow-up will recruit patients and hand out study information. Patients will reply to the principal investigator of the study and thus kept anonymous for the pharmacist in charge of the follow-up. No pressure will be put on the patients to join, but it will be emphasized that it will help evaluating the procedure.
Primary objective: To evaluate the impact of 12 weeks' administration of extended release niacin/laropiprant (ERN/LRPT) compared to placebo added to statin therapy on endothelial dependant dilatation of the arterial wall assessed by brachial vasoreactivity in stable coronary heart disease (CHD) patients. Secondary objective: To evaluate the impact of 12 weeks' administration of extended release niacin/laropiprant (ERN/LRPT) compared to placebo added to statin therapy on serum lipids and the parameters of inflammation in stable coronary heart disease (CHD) patients. CHD-coronary heart disease ER-extended release
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long term clinical impact of routine follow-up coronary angiography after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The primary endpoint is a composite of death/myocardial infarction/stroke/emergency hospitalization for acute coronary syndrome/hospitalization for congestive heart failure at 3-year after percutaneous coronary intervention.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety associated with Supralimus-Core™ Sirolimus Eluting Coronary Stent system in the treatment of single de novo lesions in native coronary arteries between 2.5 to 3.5 mm in diameter.
The purpose of the study is to get a better understanding of patients who have multi-vessel coronary artery disease (blockages in more than one vessel bringing blood to the heart) and have either Hybrid Coronary Revascularization [HCR] (combination of surgery and catheter procedures to open up clogged heart arteries) or Percutaneous Coronary Intervention [PCI] (catheter procedures to open up clogged heart arteries). Participation in the study will last up to 21 months after a patient's heart procedure(s). The study collects information about the medical care patients receive during their planned procedure(s) and how well they do following the procedure(s). No new testing or procedures will be done. Patients will receive only the tests or procedures their doctor already has planned for them. The information collected should help to plan the design of a pivotal comparative effectiveness study of hybrid revascularization.
The Primary Objective is to show non inferiority in cardiac safety (i.e myocardial necrosis-MN- assessed by positive cardiac Troponin I -cTnI- ultrasensitive assay) of a Xenon based general anesthesia procedure in patients with elevated cardiac risk scheduled for atherosclerotic vascular surgery (i.e patient with Coronary Arteries Disease risk) when compared to sevoflurane based general anesthesia procedure, postoperatively up to 3 days.
