Filter by:This trial will compare the procedural success rate between right and left radial approach in patients undergoing coronary angiography and coronary intervention.
This is a prospective cohort, one center. twenty patients who will undergo percutaneous stent implantation with everolimus eluting stent will be include. The primary endpoint was the correlation between the change (baseline vs. 1 week) in the number of circulating endothelial progenitor cells and in cell functionality following an everolimus eluting stent implantation with the grade of neointimal hyperplasia measured by optical coherence tomography
The investigators designed the following experiment to observe the pattern of administration in vitro, which can be completely excluded liver enzyme cytochrome P450 metabolism under the influence and observe the relevant P2Y12 receptor downstream signal changes, hope in the above experiments, that the human body directly for the difference between the existence of drug reactions exist.
A multi-center, prospective, consecutive enrolled, observational registry. The population being studied includes all patients undergoing treatment of "de novo" lesions in native coronary vessels, saphenous vein graft and/or arterial bypass conduits with the COBRA PzF coronary stent system. The registry will primarily assess the rate of MACE (cardiac death, myocardial infarction and clinically driven target lesion revascularization.
CFD simulations in this study provide detailed hemodynamics information, which cannot be obtained from cardiac images alone. The investigators hypothesize that our proposed simulations will provide strong correlation between hemodynamic parameters, such as WSSG and SPA, and clinically identified graft stenosis. These correlations will allow the investigators to identify the future patients at high risk of graft stenosis and lead to future researches on optimizing and refining surgical plans, such as finding optimal proximal and distal anastomoses locations, optimal graft length and diameter, which could lead to improved longevity of the graft. Once CFD coupled shape optimizer is validated, it could be part of the surgical simulator to help in training the next generation physicians. It could provide new viewpoints for assessing whether some modified surgical techniques are better or not. It could also aid in designing and evaluating the vascular medical devices, including stent, artificial graft, and etc., which would lead to better surgical outcome.
Background: A total of 25-50% of patients with stable coronary atherosclerosis treated with metallic stent implantation remain with effort angina despite optimal medical treatment and absence of stent restenosis at 1 year. The most plausible cause of persistent effort angina after stent implantation is microcirculatory dysfunction. Coronary circulation matches the myocardial blood supply and oxygen consumption. Metallic stent implantation has been related with endothelial dysfunction and impaired coronary blood flow reserve (relation between coronary blood flow at rest and maximal hyperemia) of the treated vessel at 1 year. Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold (BVS) has been shown to improve the endothelial function and to improve the angina symptoms at 1 year. However, the coronary blood flow of BVS has never been tested. Main objective: To determine differences in the blood average peak velocity at maximal hyperemia with adenosine infusion between patients treated with bioresorbable and metallic coronary stents at 1 year after stent implantation. Methodology: A total of 70 patients are 1:1 randomized to everolimus-eluting metallic stent (EES) versus everolimus-eluting BVS implantation in patients with stable coronary disease. At 1 year, patients undergo to invasive coronary angiography prior cessation of vasomotor drugs. A pressure/Doppler wire is advanced distally to the "treated segment" and the endothelial (acetylcholine) and non-endothelial (adenosine and nitroglycerine) vasomotor function is assessed with quantitative coronary angiography and pressure and Doppler measurements. Angina test questionnaires are obtained at different time-points of the study. Expected results: A difference between patients treated with BVS and EES of 12.0 cm/sc in the maximal average peak velocity (APV) under maximal hyperemia (with adenosine administration) is expected, as assessed by Doppler measurements, at 1 year after stent implantation. The study is powered to assess superiority in terms of maximal APV favoring patients treated with BVS.
Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) has remained significant and severe complication of angiographic procedures despite the increasing use of preventative methods. It has been associated with prolonged hospital stay, high morality and the need for dialysis. Since classically used creatinine for diagnosing of CIN does not reflect the degree of tubular injury before 24-48 hours after exposure to contrast media alternative earlier biomarkers and preventative methods are needed. Remote ischemic preconditioning is a non-invasive and safe method which in some studies has been reported to protect against contrast-induced nephropathy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) (1) as an additional method to standard treatment to prevent subclinical and clinical contrast-induced acute kidney injury and (2) to assess its effect on functional properties of arterial wall, organ damage biomarkers and low molecular weight metabolites.
The purpose of the study is to compare two different types of decision support materials for patients considering treatment for chest pain or chest discomfort from heart disease.
We had little experience in coronary intervention with recently introduced newer drug-eluting stent (DES) platforms, despite great anticipation, and optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for these stent systems still needs to be established. Herein, we plan the HOST-coronary intervention with next-generation drug-eluting stent platforms and abbreviated dual antiplatelet therapy (HOST-IDEA) trial to compare single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) after 3-month DAPT with 12-month DAPT in all-comers undergoing coronary intervention with third-generation DES with the thinnest struts. P2Y12 inhibitor treatment is added to aspirin during the 3-months period after the stenting, and this abbreviated duration of DAPT will be compared with conventional 1-year mandatory DAPT regimen in a 1:1 randomized stratification. Net adverse clinical events (NACEs), a composite of cardiac death, target vessel related myocardial infarction, clinically-drivent target lesion revascularization, definite or probable stent thrombosis and major bleeding is a primary endpoint for evaluating safety and efficacy of the difference of DAPT duration. 1-year target lesion failure (TLF) as a composite of cardiac death, target vessel related myocardial infarction and clinically driven target lesion revascularization will be identified as a secondary ischemic outcome. 1-year major bleeding events classified as BARC type 3 or 5 bleeding events will be identified as a secondary bleeding outcome. With this trial, you will be able to get clear insight on the behavior of newer DES platforms. Reference data for the shortened mandatory DAPT regimen will also be delineated in the selected patients, and it might be helpful to those who need it.
