Patients with ischemic heart disease and symptoms due to lack of oxygen to the heart on exertion (stable angina pectoris) are usually treated by either percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or optimal medical therapy (OMT) alone. In patients with mild to moderate coronary artery disease the prognostic impact of PCI is probably limited. Furthermore it is unclear which treatment is superior in terms of relieving symptoms (PCI or OMT). In this trial, patients with mild to moderate coronary artery disease will be randomized to PCI or sham-PCI. All patients will undergo optimal medical therapy. It is hypothesized that PCI is superior to sham-PCI in patients with stable angina pectoris undergoing optimal medical therapy in terms of symptom-relief.
Despite optimal angiographic result after stent implantation, a number of patients will undergo repeat angiography within 1 year of index procedure. EASY-PRIPCI is an observational study evaluating the incidence of abnormal physiology results in patients undergoing repeat angiography after uncomplicated percutaneous intervention (PCI).
Background: Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is already used in the work-up for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and could partially replace invasive coronary angiography (CAG) to rule out proximal coronary lesions. Objectives: To assess the diagnostic accuracy and yield of pre-TAVI CTA to detect coronary lesions (≥50% DS and ≥70% DS) in the proximal coronary segments on a per-patient and a per-segment level. Methods: The DEPICT CTA database consists of individual patient data of four studies that analysed the diagnostic accuracy of pre-TAVI CTA to detect coronary lesions. For this analysis, diagnostic accuracy was assessed in the left main and the three proximal coronary segments.
As part of the planned implementation of a new clinical pathway using hs-cTnI, the investigators will measure patient outcomes and clinical processes in a real-world scenario throughout an integrated health system across 9 emergency departments (ED).
This study evaluates the prognostic value and potential therapeutic impact of combined pressure and flow measurements in the evaluation of epicardial coronary stenosis and microvascular function.
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the main risk factors for ischemic events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes is a factor in several post-PCI (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention) risk scores. However, until recently, there were almost no studies performed specifically in the diabetic population of patients undergoing PCI. This study aims to describe the anti-thrombotic regimens, clinical outcomes and current diabetes medical treatment in an unselected consecutive population of patients with DM undergoing PCI.
This prospective registry is intended to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the TANSEI stent.
Drug eluting stents (DES) are widely used for treatment of coronary artery lesions. The Xience Sierra stent has a refined design of the metal stent backbone and is used in patients with various clinical syndromes and in different lesions. Clinical outcome of patients with previously unknown (silent) diabetes and prediabetes is of increasing interest since the latter group has recently shown to be associated with a significant risk of adverse cardiovascular events after treatment with contemporary DES. Outcome data in a population of high-risk all-comer patients, including many patients with diabetes mellitus and prediabetes, would be of great interest, but such data are not available yet. In addition, there is a lack of data in a general all-comer population. Therefore, the COASTLINE study will primarily assess the safety and efficacy of the Xience Sierra stent in a general all-comer population as well as a high-risk all-comer population.
The aim of the study is to assess continued safety and efficacy of the SeQuent® SCB. The product under investigation will be used in routine clinical practice according to the latest European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines and according to the Instructions for Use (IFU). Those data that are obtained in routine clinical use will be documented in the Case Report Form (CRF).
