Filter by:ACCURATE will test the hypothesis that opportunistic genetic testing for Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH) in patients admitted to hospital with an acute coronary syndrome will increase the diagnosis of FH and will impact patient care and outcomes. The study will recruit patients admitted to hospital with an acute coronary syndrome, and research-based genetic testing will be conducted for known FH-causing genetic variants. The results will be returned to the patients' treating physicians. The primary endpoint will be the number of patients with a new diagnosis of FH. The secondary endpoints will be the proportion of patients who undergo intensification of lipid-lowering therapy, the lowest LDL cholesterol level achieved, and the proportion of patients reaching guideline recommended lipid targets in the 12 months after the index acute coronary syndrome.
This is a Prospective, Observational Multicenter Non-Interventional Cohort Study. The primary objective is to determine whether platelet expression of FcγRIIa is associated with risk of myocardial infarction (MI), stroke and death. Secondary objectives include: 1) Develop a score that combines clinical characteristics plus platelet expression of FcγRIIa to determine the risk of MI, stroke, and death; and 2) Determine whether platelet expression of FcγRIIa is associated with risk of major bleeding. The primary endpoint is the composite of death, MI and stroke. A secondary endpoint is the incidence of clinically significant bleeding according to the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) scale type 2-5. Approximately 800 male and female subjects with confirmed MI [ST-segment elevation MI (STEMI) or non-ST-segment elevation MI (NSTEMI)] will be enrolled before hospital discharge for the index event. Approximately 10 sites in the United States will participate in this study. It is anticipated that it will take approximately 12 months to enroll approximately 800 subjects. The study and subject follow-up will continue until 1) at least 80 ischemic events (MI, stroke, and death) have occurred, and 2) the last subject enrolled has completed 18 months of follow-up.
Results from recent clinical trials on bone marrow mononuclear cell (BM-MNC) transplantation show that this intervention can help reduce the incidence of heart failure (HF) after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, no study has evaluated the effect of the transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on a clinical endpoint such as HF. This single-blinded, randomized, multicenter trial aims to establish whether the intracoronary infusion of umbilical cord-derived Wharton's jelly MSCs (WJ-MSCs) helps prevent HF development after AMI. The study will enroll 240 patients 3 to 7 days following an AMI treated with primary percutaenous coronary intervention (PPCI). Only patients aged below 65 years with impaired LV function (LVEF < 40%) will be included. They will be randomized to receive either a single intracoronary infusion of WJ-MSCs or standard care. The primary outcome of this study is the assessment of HF development during long-term follow-up (four years). Since the efficacy of MSCs is higher than BM-MNCs after AMI in the improvement of LVEF, it would be probable that these cells may have a better clinical effect as well. However, no study has evaluated the impact of the transplantation of MSCs on a clinical endpoint such as HF. This study will help determine whether or not the infusion of intracoronary WJ-MSCs in patients
The purpose of the OPTIMISER Registry is to prospectively and retrospectively collect baseline, clinical and procedural data in patients who present with AMI and are treated with PCI as well as prospectively collect the clinical outcome data. Outcomes will be compared in different clinical subgroups. The impact of PCI in AMI in general as well as cardiovascular outcomes after AMI will be assessed.
An investigator-initiated, randomized, multicenter, two-arm, open-label study of consecutive patients presenting with STEMI and MVD Objectives: The present study aimed to investigate the difference in all-cause mortality after in-hospital staged PCI versus out-hospital staged PCI for ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction （STEMI）patients with multi-vessel Disease（MVD） Background: In primary percutaneous coronary intervention for STEMI with MVD, complete revascularization has proved to reduce the risk of cardiovascular death and myocardial infarction. However, a strategy of nonculprit-vessel PCI with the goal of complete revascularization still not to be confirmed. Compare with in-hospital staged PCI, out-hospital PCI as a strategy of nonculprit-vessel PCI for STEMI patients with MVD might have be beneficial results.
To assess the effect of FDY-5301 on cardiovascular mortality and acute heart failure events in subjects with an anterior STEMI undergoing pPCI.
Left ventricular thrombus is a recognised complication of acute myocardial infarction, associated with stroke, recurrent myocardial infarction and adverse cardiac remodelling. The prevention, treatment and resolution of thrombus is hampered by a lack of understanding of its initiation, propagation and dissolution. Advanced non-invasive imaging holds major promise in improving our understanding of the incidence and the natural history of left ventricular thrombus as well as providing potential biomarkers to assess disease activity and treatment efficacy. In this prospective observational study, the investigators will recruit patients with recent acute anterior myocardial infarction and screen them for evidence of left ventricular thrombus and subclinical stroke using hybrid positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MR). Each patient will undergo PET/MR of the heart and head 7±2 days after acute myocardial infarction. If left ventricular thrombus is present on baseline MR, patients will be started on anticoagulation at the discretion of the attending physician, who will determine the agent used (warfarin or direct oral anticoagulant) and the duration of therapy (3-6 months). Patients will then undergo repeat PET/MR at completion of anti-coagulant therapy and then again after another 3 months. Patients with increased 18F- GP1 activity but no overt thrombus on MR will undergo repeat PET/MR of the head and heart at 3 and 6 months to establish the natural history of this observation and its association with thromboembolism in the brain. They will not routinely receive anticoagulation given the exploratory nature of this study.
Recovering blood flow to a coronary stenosis may improve left ventricular (LV) function in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the reported data about evaluation of LV function post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in CAD was limited. The aim of this study was to compare the LV function measured by 3 min low dose exercise stress echocardiography (ESE) combined 2D speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) in patients with CAD underwent PCI, and to identify factors affecting the change of LV function. Patients with CAD who underwent acute PCI were enrolled.
The RIC-AFRICA trial is a multi-centre, sham-controlled, double-blinded, randomised controlled trial (RCT) involving 1200 ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients presenting within ≤ 24 hours of myocardial infarction (MI) onset, across approximately 20 sites in four sub-Saharan African countries (South Africa, Kenya, Sudan and Uganda). Patients presenting with STEMI and deemed ineligible for the RIC AFRICA RCT because they present >24 hours from MI onset but less than 72 hours, will be recruited into the observational arm of the study with the same endpoints as the trial. The purpose of the RCT is to determine whether Remote Ischaemic Conditioning (RIC) can reduce the rates of all-cause death and early post-myocardial heart failure at 30-days in STEMI patients treated predominantly with thrombolytic therapy.
A multi-center randomized post-approval evaluation of delivery of intracoronary hyperoxemic supersaturated Oxygen therapy for 60 minutes in anterior AMI patients with successful reperfusion (via PCI) within 6 hours after onset of symptoms compared to standard therapy
