Filter by:The STARR network registry consists of a 4 spoke 1 hub system. Which will consist of prospective collection, recording, and regular analysis of telestroke patient consultation and care data for the purpose of quality measure assessment and improvement and benchmarking against other national and international telestroke programs.
The purpose of this observational study is to find characteristics and risk stratification methods for identification of subjects who have increased risk of death, especially sudden cardiac death, after acute myocardial infarction.
This study is a prospective, randomized controlled, single blind, two-arm, multi center clinical evaluation. A total of 1500 patients will be enrolled in the study. Patient randomization will be to one of the two treatment arms: Everolimus arm or Non drug eluting stent arm. The objective of this study is to assess the safety and performance of the Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System versus a modified cobalt chromium balloon expandable stent in the setting of primary percutaneous coronary intervention for treatment of patients presenting with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
The purpose of this study is to determine the incidence of contrast induced nephropathy and myocardial tissue reperfusion following iso-osmolar iodixanol or ipo-osmolar iopromide administration in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing primary PCI.
Randomized, control, open label, multicentre clinical study. The patient who are in accordance with subject inclusion and exclusion criteria will be randomized to A group: Routine treatment B group: Routine treatment+ Cilostazol; C group : Routine treatment + Probucol; D group: Routine treatment+ Cilostazol+ Probucol .
Primary objective: - To evaluate whether 12 weeks of clopidogrel is superior to ticlopidine in terms of lower risk of the safety events of interest in patients with stable angina (SA) or old myocardial infarction (OMI) to which percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is being planned. Secondary objectives: - To compare the incidence of adverse events, adverse drug reactions and bleeding events in patients treated with clopidogrel versus ticlopidine. - To compare the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in patients treated with clopidogrel versus ticlopidine. - To evaluate the long-term safety (adverse drug reactions, adverse events, safety events of interest and bleeding events) of clopidogrel for a total of 52 weeks; - To evaluate MACE and MACCE of clopidogrel for a total of 52 weeks.
The objective of the study is to test the action of the amantadine, as DOPA-agonist, in a double blind cross-over trial, amantadine / placebo, on the verbal fluency of chronic post stroke aphasic patients.
Specific Aim 1. To determine the prevalence of OSA in patients of first-time AMI in acute phase By screening patients of first-time, single-vessel disease, Killip I AMI, and successful revascularization 2. To determine the impact of CPAP treatment on the prognosis of AMI Using sham CPAP as the optimal placebo, we conduct this randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial to assess the 12-week CPAP effect in moderate-severe OSA patients. 3. To determine how the OSA affects patients with MI in acute and chronic phase and vice versa, which is dissected from mechanical basis and molecular basis By comparing the clinical parameters of AMI patients without OSA (AHI<5/hr), mild OSA (5 < AHI <15), moderate OSA (15<AHI<30) and severe OSA5 (AHI>30/hr), and before and after CPAP treatment, we can determine the interaction between OSA and AMI.
Stenosis of the coronary arteries may be treated by balloon dilatation followed by the implantation of a metal stent. However, restenosis occurs in 10-20% of patients treated with bare metal stents (BMS). Restenosis and treatment of restenosis is associated with risk of myocardial infarction (MI) and death. Drug eluting stents (DES)release drugs to the vessel wall that delay or inhibit the process of restenosis. Some reports have found that DES are associated with risk of acute stent thrombosis, MI and death. The precise magnitude of this risk is not known. Current evidence is therefore insufficient to balance the long-term risk and benefit of BMS vs DES. The purpose of this trial is to compare the long-term effects on MI and total mortality of BMS vs DES. The trial will recruit 8000 patients from 8 Norwegian hospitals. The patients will be randomized to treatment with BMS or DES. Clinical events will be registered for 5 years after treatment. The study hypothesis is that there is no difference in the risk of death or myocardial infarction after treatment with BMS vs DES. The trial is initiated and run by university researchers and is sponsored by not-for-profit organizations.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether rivaroxaban in addition to standard care reduces the risk of the composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or stroke in patients with a recent acute coronary syndrome compared with placebo.
