Filter by:The aims of the present project are to study possible differences in inflammatory gene expression and protein secretion in various compartments of adipose tissue being exposed during open cardiac surgery in patients with coronary heart disease undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is proposed as a possible in vivo angiogenic stimulator for improving microvascular myocardial perfusion and anginal symptoms as assessed by myocardial perfusion imaging and angina questionnaire in patients with chronic stable ischemic heart disease, when no other means to relief symptoms and/or ischemia are available.
This is a six (6) month, randomized, un-blinded, study to assess the safety and performance of the Palmaz Mach-5 Grooved Coronary Stent System vs. the Palmaz Bare Metal Coronary Stent System.
The objective of this study is to carefully monitor all patients undergoing Computed Tomographic Perfusion (CTP) at Lancaster General Hospital for safety, and determine the efficiency of the CTP procedure in a community setting.
The study will compare clinical outcomes between complete revascularization during hospitalization for ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and intervention after 30 days and intervention based on outpatient non-invasive ischemia testing in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD) presenting with first ever ST elevation myocardial infarction.
The sample of this randomized controlled trial was obtained in the Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation Unit, of the Hospital Centre of Porto, Santo Antonio General Hospital. The target population was individuals who have completed the training phase of cardiovascular rehabilitation program, volunteers and referenced by the responsible for the service. This study has as main objective to analyze the influence of a specific exercise program, maintenance phase of cardiovascular rehabilitation , in home care context, for a period of 6 months, using a virtual format (computer and Kinect) or a conventional format (paper manual) in subjects with coronary artery disease. It was intended to analyze the immediate effect of exercise program on body composition and food consumption patterns, functional muscle strength of lower limb, level of physical activity: total volume of activity as well as the profile of this intensity, kyphotic index, balance, cognitive and executive function, as well as in the quality of life. The aim is also to examine the effects, approximately 3 months after the end of the exercise program, in the lipid profile, the level of physical activity: total volume of activity as well as the profile of this intensity and cardiovascular fitness: maximum double product ; metabolic equivalents; and proof and recovery time. The individuals were distributed at random, every 3 individuals, using the capabilities of Microsoft Excel 2010 RANDBETWEEN command, by three groups: the experimental group 1- a cardiovascular rehabilitation program, in home care context, using a computer and Kinect, virtual format, the experimental group 2- in cardiovascular rehabilitation program, in home care context, using a paper-based manual, conventional format, and control group-only subject to education for cardiovascular risk factors. The program defined 3 training sessions per week. The rehabilitation program was oriented by the guidelines for exercise prescription. Participants perform the a program of specific exercises independently and individually, with remote supervision, using communication (phone, email, etc.) and a routine scheduled individual meetings.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the expression level of miR-320a are effective as biomarker in evaluating the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment effects of coronary heart disease.
An observational, retrospective, multicenter, blinded adjudication study to evaluate the clinical appropriateness of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) indication and execution in patients with stable Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) and in patients with acute coronary syndrome without ST-segment elevation (NSTE-ACS) (ratio 4:1). Half of the included patients will be diabetic. Also the implementation of selected, key guideline recommendations will be examined. At least 400 patients will be retrospectively selected among 22 Catheterization Laboratories in Italy in the region of Lombardia and Veneto. This study will be conducted in compliance with Good Clinical Practices (GCP) including the Declaration of Helsinki and all applicable regulatory requirements.
This will be a single-center, randomized, open-label, active-controlled, parallel-group study to investigate the platelet inhibition of Ticagrelor versus Clopidogrel with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) as background therapy in approximate 40 patients with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) after recent successful elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) by evaluation of the P2Y12 reaction unit (PRU) by VerifyNow P2Y12 assay at 2-4 hours after the first study drug dose on treatment day 15±2.
This is a prospective, non-randomized, single center clinical trial to assess neointimal coverage on the stent or scaffold strut and apposition of SYNERGY™ and ABSORB in minimum of 12 eligible human subject at 4 month and 12 month after stent or scaffold implantation using OCT and CAS
