Filter by:This prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled study was designed to assess the safety, feasibility and efficacy of intramyocardial injection of autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells in patients with severe, chronic ischemic disease scheduled to coronary artery bypass surgery.
In study-1, the purpose of this study is to compare the long-term outcome of provisional stenting between EES and SES deployment. In study-2, it is to prove the following hypothesis " Asymmetrical expansion in the bifurcation lesion leads to frequent inhomogeneous intimal growth on the strut and thrombus attachment."
To evaluate the safety of a new bioresorbable (non-permanent) stent platform in native coronary arteries.
This randomized, controlled, diagnostic, multicenter trial will compare two diagnostic imaging pathways--coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and single photon emission tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI)--to determine the incidence of major adverse coronary events (MACE), defined as myocardial infarction (MI) or cardiac-related death, and cross-over to revascularization. CCTA may be used to direct patients with symptoms of stable angina or angina equivalent to optimal medical therapy (OMT). The use of CCTA as a diagnostic tool for angina symptoms will be associated with no increase in MACE or revascularization, decreased cost, reduced risks (e.g., less radiation exposure), additional insights into alternate explanations of chest pain, and increased cost-effectiveness in comparison with use of SPECT MPI/invasive coronary angiography (ICA).
This study is being conducted to determine if smoking will influence the platelet aggregation inhibition ability of clopidogrel and prasugrel. It will also determine if smoking has any effect on the plasma concentrations of the active metabolite of prasugrel and the active and inactive metabolites of clopidogrel. The primary hypothesis is that smoking status will influence the antiplatelet effects and active metabolite concentrations of clopidogrel but will have no impact on prasugrel's antiplatelet effects or active metabolite concentrations.
The objective of this pilot study is to compare the PFS-eluting stent (ISAR Rapa G1) with the PPS-eluting stent (Cypher®) regarding uncovered stent strut segments at 5 years.
The Tryton Side Branch Stent System has been designed to address the procedural difficulty surrounding treatment of bifurcation lesions and to ensure patency of the side branch with similar performance capabilities (e.g., tracking, radiopacity, coverage and radial strength) that are currently available with conventional coronary stents designed for straight (non bifurcation) lesions. The Tryton Side Branch Stent is intended to treat and maintain patency in the side branch/carina by providing better ostial side branch conformability and is intended for use in conjunction with currently approved balloon-expandable drug-eluding stents for treatment of the main branch.
The goal of this study is to assess the long-term efficacy and safety of Firebird2 Cobalt-Chromium（CoCr）-alloyed sirolimus-eluting stent in treatment of complex lesions in diabetes.
This study includes patients with stable coronary artery disease without previously known myocardial infarction, and investigates the prevalence of clinically unrecognized myocardial damage and its prognostic implication.
The main purpose of this study is to observe the incidence of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), target vessel failure (TVF), target vessel revascularization (TVR) and stent thrombosis out to 5 years after the procedure in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with everolimus-eluting stents for unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) disease and lesions involving the ULMCA in Japan. The investigators will also establish a method of adjustment to the Japanese version of the SYNTAX score by conducting an assessment using the SYNTAX score recently reported in the US and Europe as well as the EuroSCORE, and by clarifying the differences of PCI procedures and treatment results in Japan with those reported in the US and Europe.
