Filter by:To examine the revascularization efficacy and safety of T-02 and its associated performance characteristics in treatment of appropriately selected subjects experiencing an acute ischemic stroke when the treatment is initiated within 24 hours after last seen well under the current guideline, and to generate hypotheses to be confirmed in subsequent confirmatory clinical investigations
Comparison of the effect of two anaesthesia methods in preventing perioperative myocardial infarction in patients with cardiac risk undergoing total knee arthroplasty
The COMBINE-INTERVENE Trial will investigate whether a PCI revascularization strategy based on combined FFR and OCT assessment is superior to a PCI revascularization strategy based on FFR-alone in patients with MVD with any presentation.
Ischemia and reperfusion injury during free flap reconstructive surgery creates a state of increased oxidative stress that can adversely affect the flap outcomes. Ascorbic acid (AA) had been proven to have beneficial effect on end-organ protection and flap survival from ischemia-reperfusion injury via its antioxidant properties. The investigators hypothesise that perioperative parenteral ascorbic acid treatment may reduce oxidative stress among participants undergoing free flap reconstructive surgery along with reduction in inflammatory markers, improved rate of flap viability and wound healing at both donor and recipient sites.
A multi-center, prospective, randomized, open-label, adaptive group sequential designed, blinded endpoint assessment (PROBE) clinical trial of endovascular treatment among selected AIS
The study aims to assess contemporary practice in OCT use during routine interven-tional practice and to assess the impact of the MLD-MAX algorithm on real-world PCI in a large unselected European all-comer-study cohort.
Acute ischemic stroke is the second leading cause of death and disability, and it is also one of the main reasons for the high cost of health care. The major risk factors for stroke are hypertension, atrial fibrillation, and smoking, which are the main intervention targets for primary stroke prevention. Although these recognized risk factors have been adequately treated, there are also significant differences in stroke incidence and outcome in the population. Sleep apnea is a common complication of acute ischemic stroke, characterized by upper airway obstruction and obstructive sleep apnea. Nowadays, more studies are currently investigating CPAP to promote long-term neurological recovery, improve the ability to perform activities of daily living, and reduce the recurrence of cardiovascular disease in stroke patients. However, 25%-50% of patients with sleep apnea will refuse or be intolerant of ventilation with CPAP. High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy is a revolutionary non-invasive respiratory support option that is widely used in NICU worldwide. This trial aims to investigate the value of different ventilation methods in reducing the rate of pulmonary infections and tracheal intubation in stroke patients. This trial is a prospective randomized cohort study, collecting patients with acute ischemic stroke in the intensive care unit of the Department of Neurology, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from 2022.05.01 to 2023.01.31. Participants who met the inclusion criteria were subjected to polysomnography on the first day of admission, and those diagnosed with sleep apnea according to the diagnostic criteria for sleep apnea were randomly grouped. Participants were given different forms of oxygen therapy, such as usual care therapy (nasal cannula and facemask), nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP), and HFNC oxygen therapy. After one week of observation, the investigators evaluated whether there were differences in the rate of tracheal intubation and pulmonary infection between the groups, as well as the length of hospitalization, hospital costs, and neurological recovery. All enrolled patients were followed up 1 month after discharge.
The study of high-frequency spinal cord stimulation (SCS) efficacy in the treatment of chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI)
Hemorrhagic transformation is a common complication of acute ischemic stroke patients . BBB damage is regarded as a major pathophysiological mechanism of hemorrhagic transformation. So, the investigators hypothesis the level of BBB damage biomarker is predictor of intracranial hemorrhage following ischemic stroke.
Patients with chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) diagnosed without significant lesions in invasive coronary angiography (ischemia non-obstructive coronary artery disease - INOCA) represent approximately 50% of all patients with CCS. Results of FAME study clearly showed that evaluation of coronary circulation should not be accomplished only with visual assessment in resting conditions. Current European Society of Cardiology Guidelines of diagnosis and treatment of CCS published in 2019 emphasize the necessity of performing complex coronary physiology assessment. Invasive physiological measurements and vasoreactivity provocative tests emerged as key tools to differentiate between vasospastic angina, microcirculatory angina, overlap of both conditions or non-cardiac disease. According to contemporary literature, identification of heterogeneity of patients with INOCA is crucial for determination of adequate treatment. An appropriate pharmacotherapy has a potential to improve outcomes including grade of angina, quality of life, exertional tolerance and most important - MACCE (major adverse cardiac and cardiovascular events) free survival. However, there is a lack of evidence on each of the subtypes of INOCA especially in those with signs and symptoms of vasospasm in provocative test but without visual spasm in epicardial vessels.
