Filter by:The FLORIDA (Fractional FLOw Reserve In cardiovascular DiseAses) study sought to investigate outcomes of FFR-guided versus angiography-guided treatment strategies in a large, real-world cohort.
This is a prospective observational clinical trail which will recruit 1000-1500 participants over 65 years with frailty and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in Beijing Friendship hospital. The investigators will conduct frailty assessment (FRAIL scale, CFS, SPPB), comorbidities, functional status (Barthel index, ADL, IADL), nutritional risk (MNA-SF), and then observe the clinical outcomes of elderly ACS participants with frailty. Then, the investigators will follow-up these participants separately in 1,3,6 and 12months, the anticipate follow-up time is 1 year. According to the follow-up results, investigators will evaluate the impact of frailty and other senile syndromes on the short-term and long-term prognosis of ACS, and develop a scoring system for the prognosis evaluation of elderly ACS participants.
The goal of this study is to predict and prevent adverse drug events by investigating the impact of genetic variants, demographics, and environmental factors in subjects status post myocardial infarction and percutaneous coronary insertion who have experienced adverse drug events while on P2Y12 inhibitors.
The study aimed to evaluate the association between the obesity grade and the age of the first acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The effect of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors and the age of first ACS in patients with severe obesity was also examined. Consecutive patients with diagnosis of first episode of ACS were prospectively enrolled in 2014 to 2024.Cardiovascular risks of patients will be determined according to clinical and laboratory evaluation and patients were categorized by their body mass indices (BMI). Independent variables that effected the age of first ACS were examined by linear regression analysis
The study aims to determine the pharmacodynamic performance in the first hour measured with verifynow, of the conventional ticagrelor loaded dose versus chewed ticagrelor in patients with acute coronary syndrome treated with percutaneous coronary intervention
The use of beta blockers after acute myocardial infarction is a core component of drug therapy, but evidence is primarily derived from patients who did not receive reperfusion therapy and secondary prophylaxis.In contemporary times, the prognostic value of beta blockers in patients with acute myocardial infarction has been questioned, particularly in patients without reduced heart failure/ejection fraction after acute myocardial infarction.
The purpose of this study is to develop a quality improvement intervention to address barriers to evidence-based acute coronary syndrome (ACS) care in northern Tanzania. Patients who presented to Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center (KCMC) will be asked to complete a survey about barriers and facilitators of health care. In addition the survey will be administered to all providers, policymakers, and administrators participating in in-depth interviews. Data from this survey will be used to develop a quality improvement intervention that will be piloted by KCMC staff. Six months after the pilot program is implemented providers, patients, and administrators will be interviewed for their perspectives on the program.
Because of their anti-Xa and ease of administration activity, the Low molecular weight heparin represent an attractive alternative to the unfractionated heparin. Several clinical trials have demonstrated that Low molecular weight heparin was more effective than Unfractionated heparin without increasing bleeding complications. Enoxaparin has been the most studied. Its use is recommended. Demonstrate that Enoxa® is comparable to that of Lovenox® in the anti-Xa activity action.
Most patients presenting to hospital with chest pain are discharged home without further tests once a heart attack has been ruled out. Current strategies to assess patients with a suspected heart attack involve blood tests to measure troponin, a protein released into the bloodstream when the heart muscle is damaged. Despite having had a heart attack ruled-out, some patients have unrecognised coronary heart disease and are at risk of having a heart attack in the future. However, we do not know what is the best approach to identify and treat these patients. This study will use a heart scan known as computed tomography coronary angiogram (CTCA) to look for underlying coronary heart disease in patients who have had a heart attack ruled out. In an earlier study, we performed this scan in patients referred to the outpatient cardiology clinic with stable chest pain and found that this improved the diagnosis of coronary heart disease, leading to improvement in patient care that prevented many future heart attacks. Our research has also demonstrated that troponin levels below the threshold used to diagnose a heart attack identify those who are at greater risk of having a heart attack in the future. The aim of this study is to confirm whether these low levels of troponin can identify patients who have underlying coronary heart disease and may benefit from further testing and preventative treatment.
Despite the fact that the topic of air pollution has been in focus of researchers for many years, there are no big studies that take up the matter of its influence on acute coronary, cerebral syndromes and CVD mortality in Europe. Taking into consideration the scarce number of surveys from Europe the investigators decided to analyze the impact of air pollution on cardiovascular diseases and CVD mortality in Poland.
