Filter by:To demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the Cobra Cobalt Super Alloy Balloon-Expandable Coronary Stent System for the treatment of de novo and restenotic (previously unstented) lesions in native coronary arteries in subjects with coronary artery disease (CAD) having a reference vessel diameter (RVD) between 2.5 - 4.0 mm and a lesion length ≤ 26 mm amenable to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with a single stent in subjects with symptomatic ischemic heart disease.
The aim of this study was to compare conservative versus aggressive strategy in patients with intermediate lesions with angiography guidance alone.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the intravenous administration of single- and multiple-ascending doses of Thymosin Beta 4 is safe and tolerable in healthy volunteers.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether aspirin and clopidogrel resistance measured with Multiplate function analyser has a good correlation with incidence of major adverse cardiac events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).
Blood samples and health information (e.g., age at diagnosis, test results) are collected for the purposes of genetic research. The blood samples are assigned a number and stored in a repository for safe keeping until they are needed for a research project. Participants are persons who are healthy (not having high blood pressure, diabetes, or high cholesterol levels) or persons who have Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) and live in Indiana. Participants complete a questionnaire at the time the blood sample is drawn and are contacted once a year to update their health history. Researchers apply to the Fairbanks Institute for use of the blood samples and health information minus participant names and contact information. Their research is required to be related to find genes or substances made by genes that may be involved in Coronary Artery Disease with the purpose of improving the investigators understanding of the illness potentially leading to the development of new diagnostic tools for identifying the illness, new treatments,or preventative measures. This study will be repeated for other disorders like Diabetes and Cancer.
This study is being conducted to examine the effect of AZD6140 on the levels of certain chemicals in subjects' blood and urine.
The aim of AUTAX study is to investigate the frequency of MACCE in patients with multivessel disease and multiple Taxus stent implantations in the "real world" stenting at 30 days, 6 and 12 months at 2 year follow-up. Because multivessel stenting using DES has been limited due to economic considerations, the secondary aim is to enhance experience in multivessel stenting with drug-eluting stents in order to improve short- and long-term outcomes of the patients with severe multiple coronary artery stenoses. The objectives of the study are: 1. To determine the frequency of MACCE at 30-day, 6 and 12-month and at 2 year clinical follow-up after multivessel intervention with drug-eluting stents in a prospective patient cohort.. 2. To determine the rate of in-stent restenosis, target lesion and target vessel revascularization (angiographic measures) 6 months in patients with multiple DESs in multiple lesions. 3. To investigate the clinical and angiographic outcomes after implantation of multiple DESs in the subgroup of patients with accompanying diseases (diabetes mellitus, renal insufficiency) with known high restenosis and late complication rate. 4. To evaluate potential cost burden in attempting a strategy of complete revascularization by multiple DES in patients with multivessel disease.
The purpose of this study is to investigate, if immunoadsorption of autoantibodies with subsequent substitution of immunoglobulins is able to improve cardiac function of patients with heart failure after myocardial infarction and presence of cardiac autoantibodies.
The purpose of this study is to identify whether exposure to ambient levels of air pollution during normal daily activities has a functional impact on patients with coronary heart disease
To compare the diagnostic ability of 64-detector MDCT coronary angiography with conventional invasive coronary angiography in patients with suspected coronary artery disease.
