Filter by:This registry is a clinical post-market evaluation of the Orsiro LESS in subjects requiring coronary revascularization with Drug Eluting Stents (DES).
The aim of this study is to demonstrate that the combination therapy of aspirin and clopidogrel napadisilate is not inferior to that of aspirin and clopidogrel bisulfate with respect to its effectiveness in inhibiting platelet aggregation, if it is given for four weeks to Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) patients who had been treated with a drug-eluting stent before > 12 months and had remained in a stable condition with a single antiplatelet agent, aspirin.
Exparel is a new local analgesic (numbing medication) that is intended to be longer acting than currently available local analgesics. The purpose of this study is to determine whether use of Exparel to numb the nerves along the breastbone after open heart surgery, will decrease pain and pain medication use after surgery.
The study is designed to evaluate how safe and how well an investigational imaging product CardioPET™ performs as compared to standard approved imaging products in assessing the function of heart muscle in coronary artery disease patients.
The purpose of this multicenter, randomized, open label, parallel arm study whether the newest 3rd generation stent - Orsiro hybrid sirolimus-eluting stent is noninferior to the newest 2nd generation stent - Resolute Integrity zotarolimus-eluting stent in terms of 9 months in-stent late lumen loss. 345 Korean patients with a wide variety of coronary heart disease will be enrolled to this "all-comers" trial to give definite answer to the above hypothesis that is urgently needed.
The purpose of this study is primarily to determine the effects of propofol at different concentration on the mitral valve annulus by using Tissue Doppler Imaging
The purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with ticagrelor + aspirin is more effective than treatment with clopidogrel + aspirin in patients with type-2 diabetes. Both treatments will be given (separately) to all subjects as a one-time loading dose (i.e. higher than a normal daily dose), followed by daily dose for the next 5 to 7 days. Effectiveness of treatment will be measured with specialized blood tests before the loading dose, at two time-points after the loading dose, and once after the last daily dose.
The purpose of this study is to compare the response to aspirin in the acute phase with the late phase of an acute coronary syndrome.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of Taiwan. L-carnitine (LC) and coenzyme Q10 is recognized as lipid soluble antioxidants. The purposes of this study are going to investigate the relation of LC and coenzyme Q10 with the markers of lipid peroxidation, antioxidant enzymes activities, and the inflammatory markers in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. The study is designed as a three-year study. The first year is an observation study. We will recruit CAD patients who are identified by cardiac catheterization as having at least 50% stenosis of one major coronary artery, and age-gender matched healthy subjects. The concentrations of LC, coenzyme Q10, lipid peroxidation markers (TBARS and ox-LDL), antioxidant enzymes activities (catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, and superoxide dismutase), and inflammatory markers are going to analysis. The second year is a single-blind, single dose intervention study. CAD subjects are recruit form the first year and randomly assigned to placebo, coenzyme Q10-150 (150 mg/d), coenzyme Q10-300 (300 mg/d), LC-1000 (1000 mg/d) or LC-2000 (2000 mg/d) groups. Intervention is going to administration for three months. Fasting blood will be obtained in each month and determine the concentration of LC, coenzyme Q10, lipid peroxidation markers, antioxidant enzymes activities, and inflammatory markers after intervention. The third year is a single-blind, multiple doses intervention study. We are going to measure the CAD subjects from the second year intervention study. After three months washout period, the subjects are assigned to placebo, coenzyme Q10-150 plus LC-1000, coenzyme Q10-150 plus LC-2000, coenzyme Q10-300 plus LC-1000, and coenzyme Q10-300 plus LC-2000 groups. Intervention is going to administration for three months. Fasting blood will be obtained in each month and determine the concentration of LC, coenzyme Q10, lipid peroxidation markers, antioxidant enzymes activities, and inflammatory markers after intervention. Hopefully, the results of this study could provide information of LC and coenzyme Q10 supplementation for clinical dietitian in advising CAD patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine Isoflurane's dose-dependent effect on left ventricular (LV) systolic function in cardiac surgery. The change of tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) of lateral mitral valve annular systolic velocity at three different isoflurane concentrations would be analyzed by using intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in cardiac surgery patients.
