Filter by:To evaluate and improve the safety and efficacy of hypothermia as an adjunctive therapy to percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
Aims: - evaluate the hydric status through bioimpedance spectroscopy in consecutive acute myocardial infarction patients referred for primary PCI; - assessment of renal artery stenosis incidence through renal angiography in consecutive STEMI patients; - fully characterize the complex hydration, metabolic and endothelial profile of these patients in the attempt to define the role played by dehydration in the complex dynamics of acute myocardial infarction.
Objective: The purpose of this project is to study the post miyocardial infaction (MI) damage and subsequently developed post-infarct cardiac repair process on the basis of cellular, molecular and imaging techniques. Besides this, whole genomesequencing and analysis (GWAS) will be performed to determine common varying genetic loci in order to anticipate whetherthese findings and its related pathways would be the predictors of adverse remodeling after MI or not.
The purpose of this study is to explore the earlobe crease as a risk factor of acute myocardial infarction (AMI)in the Chinese population, combined with other risk factors, to predict high risk patients with coronary heart disease.
The optimal antithrombotic therapy for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) with a CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥1 with concomitant acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or revascularisation by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stenting, is still unknown. For these patients current North American and European guidelines recommend a triple therapy strategy, including vitamin K antagonists (VKA), aspirin and clopidogrel. A major drawback of this triple therapy strategy is a significant increase in the risk of major bleeding. Furthermore, the ommitance of aspirin and the introduction of more potent P2Y12 inhibitors as well as the non-vitamin K oral anticoagulants (NOAC), created numerous new antithrombotic treatment strategies for these patients with overlapping conditions. To date, evidence on the risks and benefits of these new antithrombotic treatment strategies is lacking. The WOEST 2 Registry aims to improve medical care for patients with AF and/or a heart valve prosthesis ánd undergoing coronary revascularisation through a better understanding of their demographics, antithrombotic management and related in-hospital and long-term outcomes. The WOEST 2 Registry will provide data to support benchmarking of antithrombotic treatment patterns and patient outcomes. Objective: To assess the different management patterns and related in-hospital and long-term safety and efficacy outcomes of combined use of chronic oral anticoagulation and a P2Y12 inhibitor in patients with atrial fibrillation and/or a heart valve prosthesis undergoing coronary revascularisation.
To investigate the feasibility of the earlobe crease as an early prognostic predictor for acute myocardial infarction(AMI) in Chinese population.
This is a prospective, randomized study with blinded outcome assessment, comparing routine manual thrombus aspiration with no aspiration in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Coronary obstruction by an occlusive thrombus complicating a ruptured or eroded atherosclerotic plaque is the most frequent pathologic substrate of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Timely restoration of perfusion and thereby myocardial salvage is the single most important objective in the management of patients with ST segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). To address these uncertainties, our study aims to evaluate the role of RT in patients who are most likely to benefit from it (thrombus grade 4 and 5) using a sensitive, quantitative, and reproducible parameter; CMR-derived myocardial salvage. also, to determine whether Rheolytic Thrombectomy (RT) before conventional PCI to the culprit vessel as compared to conventional PCI (with or without MTA) results in improved myocardial salvage; and to identify clinical and angiographic determinants of any difference observed between both treatment groups.
This is a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study of intracoronary cocktail injection combined with thrombus aspiration versus thrombus aspiration alone in ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients treated with primary angioplasty.
The investigators planned to evaluate the effects of liraglutide on left ventricular function in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI).
