Filter by:This study will evaluate the effect of a cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programme on blood protein molecules that may improve the function of arteries in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients who have suffered a heart attack. CAD patients who have either agreed or disagreed to take part in a CR programme will be recruited. This will allow a comparison of the study measurements between a group of patients who complete a CR programme and a group of patients who do not. The other objective of this study is to perform interviews with the study participants and their significant others (i.e. spouse, family member, or a close friend) to listen to the reasons why patients agreed or disagreed to take part in a CR programme.
Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is a therapeutic strategy for protecting organs or tissue against the detrimental effects of acute ischemia-reperfusion injury. It remains unknown whether this can be used in retinal ischemic diseases. The purpose of the present study is to examine if the autoregulation of retinal vessel diameters in diabetic patients change after remote ischemic conditioning and if the observations are different from what have been observed in normal persons.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate recanalization treatments use, safety and efficacy at the acute phase of arterial ischemic stroke in pediatric patients
There is a debate whether ticagrelor is superior to aspirin in treating patients with ischemic stroke or not, most of the studies examine the effect of both drugs within 24 hours of acute stroke some find that there is no difference between ticagrelor and aspirin, others find that ticagrelor is superior to aspirin. At this study the investigators aim at evaluating the role of loading ticagrelor received within 9 hours of acute ischemic stroke in improving neurological outcome of stroke. And evaluating the risk of hemorrhagic and non- hemorrhagic complications associated with the use of ticagrelor180 ml oral loading dose within 9 hours acute ischemic stroke
SELECT 2 evaluates the efficacy and safety of endovascular thrombectomy compared to medical management alone in acute ischemic stroke patients due to a large vessel occlusion in the distal ICA and MCA M1 who have large core on either CT (ASPECTS: 3-5) or advanced perfusion imaging ([rCBF<30%] on CTP or [ADC<620] on MRI: ≥50cc) or both and are treated within 0-24 hours from last known well.
China has the largest burden of cerebrovascular disease in the world. About 60% to 80% of which are ischemic stroke. In recent years, stroke has replaced heart disease and tumor diseases as the first cause of death and disability in adult population. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of indobufen treatment in reducing the risk of a 3-month new stroke (any type of stroke, including ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke) for patients with moderate/severe ischemic stroke is not inferior to aspirin therapy.
Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is a noninvasive strategy in which one or more cycles of brief and transient limb ischemia confers protection against prolonged and severe ischemia in distant organs.This study aimed to investigate whether RIC is safe and effective in patients with AIS complicating ACS
This is a randomized pharmacological study evaluating the effects of ivabradine in patients with residual angina after PCI. The role of ivabradine in patients with angina, without systolic dysfunction, is not yet clear. The investigators performed in all patients an echostress to evaluate the effects of therapy with ivabradine after 30 days in terms of exercise tolerance and diastolic function.
This explorative prospective study aims to assess the effects of heart rate variability biofeedback (HRV biofeedback) in patients with acute ischaemic stroke. Furthermore, the investigators aim to examine the impact of the intervention on cardiac autonomic function and further autonomic parameters such as sudomotor (sympathetic perspiratory gland function) and vasomotor function (sympathetic arterial function). Patients testing is going to be conducted at the Department of Neurology, University Hospital Carl Gustave Carus, Dresden, Germany.
This randomised, controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Cardiac Shockwave Therapy (CAST-HF) in patients with ischaemic heart failure requiring surgical revascularization. The main questions to answer are: - Does cardiac shockwave therapy, in addition to CABG surgery, improve left ventricular ejection fraction? - Is cardiac shockwave therapy in addition to CAGB surgery safe? Participants will be randomised into intervention (cardiac shockwave therapy) and control (sham treatment with an inactive applicator) groups.
