Filter by:Early-Synergy investigates a diagnostic imaging approach in asymptomatic individuals from the general population for early detection of silent myocardial ischemia and cardiac dysfunction. The diagnostic imaging approach consists of cardiac computed tomography for coronary artery calcium scoring (CT-CAC) and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) stress perfusion imaging. Early-Synergy investigates the effect of early detection of silent myocardial ischemia and cardiac dysfunction by CMR in asymptomatic individuals with increased CAC. In addition, the diagnostic yield of CMR for early detection of silent myocardial ischemia and cardiac dysfunction is investigated. Asymptomatic individuals at increased risk (CAC ≥ 300) are therefore randomized 1:1 to either CMR stress perfusion imaging or a control group.
The objective of this study is a comparative evaluation of Orsiro stent and of Resolute Integrity stent in terms of the extent of neointima formation at 4 months after implantation using optical coherence tomography (OCT).
The current study sought to evaluate the clinical relevance of iFR-guided strategy in real world clinical practice using unrestricted study population from stable angina to acute coronary syndrome including acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Previous abundant historical data of FFR-guided strategy will be also included as historical control to validate the iFR-guided strategy.
The pathophysiological features of myocardial diabetic subject combined with cardiac autonomic neuropathy were behind the quietness of myocardial ischemia, known as silent myocardial ischemia (IMS). These patients have the risk to remain asymptomatic until the sudden onset of a myocardial infarction, or even sudden death. That is why the investigators want to evaluate the contribution of non-invasive tools to stand in the diagnosis of IMS patients with diabetes type 2, asymptomatic heart on map: Technical myocardial speckle tracking in studying strains overall average left ventricular (longitudinal, circumferential and radial) measured in 2D and 3D at rest, compared to stress echocardiography with dobutamine (ESD)
The purpose of this investigation is to compare subjects at high risk for silent myocardial ischemia in the placebo group to subjects at high risk for silent myocardial ischemia in the ranolazine group to determine if ranolazine can be used as a treatment to decrease silent myocardial ischemia (SMI). Subjects at high risk for silent myocardial ischemia are defined in this protocol as diabetics with stable ischemic heart disease. This study will look at the impact ranolazine treatment has on biomarkers that have been shown to be highly associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality in relation to SMI. If the hypothesis is correct, further studies can be conducted to determine if treatment with ranolazine has impact on long-term outcomes such as hospitalizations, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure or sudden cardiac death.
The main objective of the SENIOR study is to establish the efficacy and safety of the everolimus eluting stent with a biodegradable abluminal polymer (SYNERGY II) associated with a short dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in patients ≥75 years old, suffering from stable angina, silent ischemia (1 month DAPT) or acute coronary syndromes (6 months DAPT) related to significant coronary artery disease and requiring percutaneous coronary intervention. The primary end point is to demonstrate that SYNERGY II in patients ≥75 years old is associated with a lower rate of the composite rate of major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, ischemia-driven target lesion revascularization) and a similar risk of stent thrombosis than bare metal stent at one year.
The objective of this study is a comparative evaluation of BuMA stent and of EXCEL stent in terms of the extent of neointima formation at 3 months after implantation using OCT. This is a prospective, single center, randomized, open-label, non-inferiority study, which will enroll a total of 70 patients in Fuwai Hospital.All patients will be randomly assigned undergoing implantation of BuMA stent or EXCEL stent (in a 1:1 ratio). If non-inferiority was met, superiority test will be planned.
The hypothesis of this study is that strut coverage occurs earlier when a DES is implanted to treat a BMS restenosis compared with atherosclerotic de-novo lesion. This hypothesis is supported by two different observations: first, when a DES is implanted to treat a BMS restenosis, stent struts are deployed and drugs are eluted on a soft tissue mostly characterized by extracellular matrix with a regular surface. In this case stent malposition is less likely to occur compared to atherosclerotic lesion whose surface is often more irregular and rich in calcium. Second, patients who develop in-stent restenosis after BMS implantation are likely to show a more pronounced neointima hyperplasia and, when a DES is implanted to treat restenosis, reendothelialization is likely to occur earlier. If this hypothesis was verified, duration of dual antiplatelet therapy could be shortened after DES implantation on BMS restenosis with a clinical advantage in terms of bleeding risk. Furthermore, a higher bleeding risk is often a reason for choosing a BMS instead of a DES; thus, patients presenting with BMS restenosis are likely to have a higher bleeding risk and to benefit from a shorter period of dual antiplatelet therapy.
