Filter by:NP202 is an experimental drug being developed by Armaron Bio Pty Ltd for potential use as a treatment for people after they have had a heart attack (MI).
The present study is designed to confirm the therapeutic effects of heat-clearing and blood-activating Chinese medicinal components in treatment of Acute Cerebral Infarction (ACI) and to investigate the therapeutic mechanisms of multi-target anti-inflammatory action involved from the standpoint of pathology, cell and molecular biology, as well as immunology.
Diabetes mellitus (DM) plays an important role in the occurrence of the cerebral infarction (CI). Clinical studies have demonstrated that the CI patients with DM had a poor prognosis compared with those without DM. Previous magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies have shown that patients with DM had abnormalities in cerebral vessels, nerves and functions, similar with the findings in mice models. In this study, with multi-modal MRI technologies, investigators tend to observe structural and functional changes of the brain in both DM and non-DM CI patients and assess their neural rehabilitation using clinical scales in the following 6 months. Investigators also expect to find out dynamic changes of brain structure and function, to reveal the weights of factors including brain blood vessels, nerves and function remodeling related with stroke recovery, as well as the potential mechanism in CI patients with DM.
Approximately 60 patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction successfully treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention will be enrolled and randomized to receive the sodium tanshinone IIA sulfonate in addition to standard therapy or the same volume/day of normal saline. The primary endpoint is the variation in LV end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVi) assessed with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at baseline and 6 months.
A measurable degree of heart muscle tissue injury is expected in patients undergoing heart valvular surgery. The level of this injury can be measured by cardiac biomarkers in blood samples. Those biomarkers are used to diagnose an acute myocardial infarction. Postoperative myocardial infarction (MI) is a frequent and important complication after cardiac surgery with high morbidity and mortality. Therefore it is very important to recognize any cardiac event in patients who undergo cardiac surgery. Different diagnostic tools can be used to the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction; however few is known about the value of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTn) to diagnose a MI after heart valvular surgery. The aim of this study is to determine the upper reference limit of high-sensitivity troponin T concentration to consider the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction in patients undergoing heart valvular surgery.
Based on accumulating evidences showing that hypothyroid status is associated with poor prognosis among acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients, the study is designed to evaluate whether replacement treatment with levothyroxine could have beneficial effects on patients with AMI and hypothyroidism. This is a multicenter prospective computerized-randomized trial stratified by ejection fraction with a 1:1 ratio to levothyroxine group or standard therapy group.
The investigators planned to evaluate the effects of liraglutide on no-reflow in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
The objective of Left atrial appendage closure compared to standard antiplatelet therapy in patients with AF who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (LLA-PCI) study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of implantation of left atrial appendage closure compared to standard antiplatelet therapy for prevention of thromboembolic events and stent thrombosis in subjects with AF who underwent PCI.
This is a prospective, open, multicentre trial that will enrol patients with clinical signs of stroke in the acute phase admitted for CT scan. Follow-up microwave measurements will be performed after the acute phase. The study assesses the diagnostic capability and safety of Strokefinder MD100.
Aim. To develop and examine the effectiveness of an APN-led telehealth rehabilitative programme as a transitional nursing therapeutic on readmission rates and health related outcomes amongst patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) post discharge. Design. Randomized controlled trial with repeated measures. Methodology. A consecutive sampling of 172 patients with AMI will be recruited from a tertiary hospital in Singapore. Participants will be randomised into two groups. The experimental group (ALTRA) will receive APN-led telehealth rehabilitative programme upon discharge in addition to standard care. The control group will receive only standard follow-up care.
