Filter by:BIOFLOW-IV is a prospective, international, multicenter, randomised controlled trial. The purpose of this trial is to compare the Biotronik Orsiro drug eluting stent system with the Xience Prime / Xience Xpedition (Xience)drug eluting stent system in de novo coronary lesions. The study is powered for non-inferiority with respect to Target Vessel Failure(TVF)at 12 months.
Study of heterogeneity in associations between social deprivation and the initial presentation of 12 cardiovascular diseases.
This study is being done to better understand how genetic information might improve assessment of heart attack risk.
The investigators propose a 4 year prospective, observational study of 40 patients yearly, comparing conventional clinically indicated SPECT and PET perfusion with dynamic rest/stress MPI studies with coronary angiography, in some cases performed with quantitative coronary anatomy and flow as well as quantitative 13N-ammonia PET MPI. Methods will also be assessed for their ability to determine myocardial viability by comparing regional wall motion (WM) on clinically indicated serial ventriculography, echocardiography or gated SPECT MPI in those protocol patients with WM abnormalities who subsequently undergo revascularization. Patient studies will begin in the first study year based on those methods already developed and integrate new advances as they become evident.
After having had a first cardiovascular event, there is a considerable risk of developing a subsequent event. Only recently, a risk prediction model was developed for this group of patients. Imaging techniques such as the coronary artery calcium score and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) of the coronary and carotid arteries could be able to add improve this model. Imaging may further improve the prediction of future manifestations of arterial disease and personalize disease monitoring and treatment.
Near infra-red spectroscopy (NIRS) was used to measure the tissue perfusion of the cerebral cortex with two noninvasive adhesive patches in recent years. This study is designed to compare the regional tissue perfusion of different body areas in patients receiving coronary artery bypass surgery under general anesthesia. The NIRS data will also be used to compare with other routine physiological monitors in the surgery.
The propose of this study is to demonstrate, whenever using Drug Eluting Stent is not possible, the clinical security at 12 months, of the combinaison Bare Metal Stent plus Drug Eluting Balloon.
To explore the safety and efficiency of adenovirus-hepatocyte growth factor(Ad-HGF) treatment in ischemic heart disease.
Our hypothesis is to test that 1) The safety and efficacy of Nano+ DES in patients with de novo lesions; 2) A low neointimal hyperplasia after Nano+ DES implantation due to its effective and sufficient antiproliferative drug; 3) A very high coverage and an improved early arterial healing after Nano+ DES implantation due to polymer-free; 4) The safety of clopidogrel treatment discontinuation at 3 months when OCT results are defined as optimal.
The study is a randomised comparison of recanalisation of chronic occluded coronary arteries with implantation of Sirolimus eluting stents and medical therapy. Myocardial function and scar-size are determinated by using magnetic resonance imaging. The study hypothesis is the superiority of medical therapy over revascularisation.
