Filter by:The purpose of ZEST-LATE (Evaluation of the Long-term Safety After Zotarolimus-Eluting Stent, Sirolimus-Eluting Stent, or PacliTaxel-Eluting Stent Implantation for Coronary Lesions - Late Coronary Arterial Thrombotic Events) trial is to assess the relationship between long-term clopidogrel use beyond 1 year and long-term rates of death or MI after DES implantation and to estimate the duration of dual antiplatelet therapy for preventing the late thrombotic events.
To evaluate whether the cilostazol reduce neointimal hyperplasia after ZES (Zotarolimus-eluting stents) implantation, the investigators performed double-blind,randomized, multicenter, prospective study compared triple antiplatelet therapy (aspirin plus clopidogrel plus cilostazol) and dual antiplatelet therapy (aspirin plus clopidogrel) for 8 months in patients with long coronary lesion treated with ZES.
To evaluate that angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin-converting enzyme receptor blockers (ARBs) reduce the risk of restenosis after DES implantation.
The aim of this multi-center study is to determine the applicability of BMIPP to diagnosing cardiac disease and to predicting the outcome of patients on hemodialysis.
The purpose of this study is to: - evaluate the performance characteristics (sensitivity & specificity) of iodofiltic acid I-123 imaging for detection of myocardial ischemia in patients that present in the Emergency Department with suspected Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). - evaluate the safety of a single injection of iodofiltic acid I-123 in patients suspected of myocardial ischemia related to ACS.
The purpose of this study is to determine the dose of PB127 for detection and/or exclusion of coronary artery disease when used with cardiac ultrasound. This study also evaluates the safety of PB127.
The purpose of this study is to compare a new high vacuum pressure chest drainage system (NO-NUMO™) with the standard low vacuum pressure drainage system already in use in cardiac surgeries. The new system uses smaller diameter drainage tubing to remove blood from the chest after open heart surgery. This is less painful to the patient and should help the patient to breathe better after operation. Preliminary data suggests that the high vacuum suction is effective and practical, and could actually reduce the amount of chest tube bleeding after surgery without compromising heart function. This new high vacuum drainage system was approved by the FDA in 2002. Subsequent testing at University of California, Irvine indicated that this unique system may allow the surgeon to predict excessive postoperative bleeding before the patient is transferred out of the operating room, thus adding safety, convenience, and cost effectiveness to their use.
The purpose of clinical research is to look at the nature of disease and try to develop improved methods to diagnose and treat disease.The goal of this study is to evaluate the use of computed tomography (CT) scan of the heart in the diagnosis of disease in vein grafts after bypass surgery.
In an observational multi-centre study (CHALLENGE), the effects were assessed of starting treatment with low doses of rosuvastatin in statin naive patients with a history of coronary heart disease (CHD), peripheral vascular disease (PVD), cerebrovascular accident (CVA), transient ischemic attack (TIA) or diabetes (DM), on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) goal achievement. Also proportional changes in LDL-C, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG) and the ratio TC/HDL-C were studied.
1. To evaluate the impact of ranolazine extended-release tablets in women with subendocardial ischemia due to microvascular endothelial dysfunction on myocardial ischemia (Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) extent, severity. 2. To evaluate the impact of ranolazine extended-release tablets in women with subendocardial ischemia due to microvascular endothelial dysfunction on the outcomes of angina (Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ), WISE angina frequency, Duke Activity Status Inventory(DASI) and SF-36).
