Filter by:This study is a Prospective, Multi-center, Single-arm clinical study, in patients with Coronary Artery Disease, including patients with silent ischemia (excluding STEMI), who qualify for elective Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), aimed to assess the Safety and Efficacy of the R-One device in elective PCI.
The aim of this prospective cohort study is to assess the quality of therapy in patients with stable ischemic heart disease (IHD) who had never applied for specialized medical care for the last 3 years and try to accord their treatment with current clinical guidelines.
The purpose of this study is to analyze the changes in cardiac performance before and after milrinone administration in order to find out whether milrinone improves LV performance in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery.
This study is a prospective, observational, cohort study aiming to compare point-of-care high-sensitive troponin I testing from different sample types with central laboratory (CL) HS cTnI plasma samples. A registry of all included patients and their troponin results (POC, CL and HS cTnT) will be made to compare these testing methods.
Preliminary experiences suggest that intermittent anticoagulation guided by continuous electrocardiographic monitoring can reduce the incidence of bleeding in patients with episodes of atrial fibrillation. Uncertainty about the potential implications of a strategy of intermittent anticoagulation after percutaneous coronary intervention exists. The investigators will perform a case-control study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of anticoagulation on demand in high bleeding risk (HBR) patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after percutaneous coronary intervention.
The investigators propose a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an anti-proliferative agent paclitaxel in a cholesterol-rich non-protein nanoparticle (Paclitaxel -LDE) in patients with stable coronary disease. Patients with multi-vessels stable coronary disease will be randomized to receive Paclitaxel-LDE IV or placebo-LDE IV each 21 days for 6 weeks. The primary and main secondary endpoints will be analyzed by coronary and aortic CTA, that will be performed 1-4 weeks after randomization and at 3-8 weeks after the last treatment cycle. Patients will undergo clinical and laboratory safety evaluations before each treatment cycle and 3-8 weeks after the last cycle. An algorithm for drug suspension based on clinical and laboratory finding will be followed.
Patients with ischemic heart disease are often treated with multiple cardiovascular agents, including aspirin, statins, ezetimibe, Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or beta-blockers. Uncertainty about the optimal timing and clinical implications of administration of cardiovascular drugs still persists. The investigators will perform a pilot randomized trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a one daily administration of multiple drugs vs. twice daily administration.
This article uses the smart medical case management tracking system, combined with various terminal devices to fully record the measured data (pulse, blood pressure) for case home care tracking to prevent the occurrence and deterioration of the disease. Therefore, with the promotion of the eHealth medical staff and members of the family can instantly grasp the health of the body and cultivate the habits of self-health management and enhance the quality of care. Therefore, we hope to use the Smart Health Cloud as an interventional measure to improve the care of patients with coronary artery disease, improve self-management ability and quality of life.
The present study aims to compare a planned angiographic control (PAC) follow-up strategy vs. conservative management for patients treated with drug-eluting stents on unprotected left main artery in a prospective, randomized setting. PAC will be performed by coronary computed tomography (CCT), to avoid the limitations of the invasive coronary angiography which is usually employed to perform PAC. The superiority of a PAC-based approach will be tested on a hard clinical end-point such as the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events. The investigators will also assess the performance of CCT as a tool to perform PAC.
A considerable proportion of patients with clinically suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) do not have angiographic signs of luminal narrowing caused by coronary atherosclerosis. In patients with suspected CAD, we will assess the ability of cardiovascular biomarkers to identify patients with (a) angiographically normal epicardial coronary vessels (b) absence of significant epicardial coronary stenosis, as assessed by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). Patients will be stratified according to the presence or absence of dynamic changes of high sensitivity cardiac troponin T levels above the 99th percentile.
