Filter by:New-generation metallic drug-eluting stents represent the standard of care among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Currently, few data are available as regards to the safety and efficacy of the Cre8 amphilimus-eluting stent (Cre8 AES, Alvimedica, Instanbul, Turkey) in comparison with the biodegradable polymer everolimus-eluting stent (Synergy EES, Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA, USA). Results from randomized trials and meta-analyses consistently indicate that prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after PCI reduces ischemic events, but invariably conveys an excess of clinically relevant bleeding, which is proportional to the duration of treatment. It has been estimated, indeed, that for every non-fatal ischemic event avoided with prolonged DAPT, two or more clinically relevant bleeding events have to be expected. Given the trade-off between benefits and risks and the lack of mortality benefit in favor of prolonged DAPT, expert consensus suggests that DAPT duration should be individualized based on ischemic versus bleeding risks. At this regard, the DAPT score has been recently proposed as standardized tool to identify patients who derive benefit or lack from a prolonged course of DAPT. However, a prospective assessment of the DAPT score is lacking and whether a personalized duration of DAPT based on the DAPT score improves the net clinical benefit remains unknown. The objective of the study is to compared the safety and the efficacy of the Cre8 AES with the Synergy EES and a personalized DAPT duration based on the DAPT score with a standard DAPT duration among patients undergoing PCI.
The purpose of this implementation trial is to execute a nurse-led, home-based cardiac rehabilitation (HBCR) program, evaluate the program's impact on patient outcomes over 6 months; and compare outcomes of HeartHome (HH) participants to a group of participants in traditional cardiac rehabilitation (CR).
To determine the effect of intervention of ambient air pollution on acute coronary syndrome patients.
The Distal Radial Access (DRA) to the coronaries has emerged recently. It's done via the distal radial artery in the radial fossa, which is known as the snuff-box. The rationale of conducting this research is to assess this new access advantages and disadvantages, in comparison with the standard conventional forearm radial access and examine if it's worthy to be a future alternative method for coronary angiography. It aims to randomly compare between the new distal radial access via the snuffbox and the conventional forearm radial access for percutaneous coronary angiography and angioplasty procedures. The objectives of comparing both procedures are to analyze the frequency of complications in terms of occlusion, arterial spasm, hematoma, and to weigh accesses effectiveness in terms of time and attempts to puncture, crossover rate, procedure duration, hemostasis time, and convenience of the patients and operators. Candidates for coronary angiography are being randomized into the interventional group to undergo the angiography through the distal radial artery as the access site, or the control group accessing through the radial artery in the forearm. Procedural and post procedural outcomes and complications are being reported while patients are in hospital. All patients undergo doppler ultrasonography within 24 hours after the procedure.
In this study, clinical database and blood sample bank of acute chest pain (ACP) will be established at chest pain center of multi-center hospital. To explore new biomarkers and screen clinical indicators with effective risk stratification and prognostic evaluation for ACP through proteomics technology and statistics methods. Risk stratification and short-term and long-term prognostic evaluation models for high-risk ACP will be established using large data analysis.
The aim of this study is to establish an innovative Cardiac Tele-Rehabilitation (CTR) model. It could expands assistance resources through coordination with public administrations, developing a physical exercise program (PEP) assistance model in phase II that resolves the current situation of lack of adherence in the PEP due in part to the long waiting time to start it. To sum up this study could improve adherence in Cardiac Rehabilitation Phase III. It represents an opportunity to validate an innovative model for the realization of the PEP for phase II that could be expanded to other centres.
The objective of the study is to assess the performance characteristics of Apo J-Glyc as a novel biomarker for the early detection of myocardial ischaemia in patients with suspected acute coronary syndromes.
This is a prospective, randomized, open-label clinical trial which will enroll 80 acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients after Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Intervention (PCI) in China. Patients on maintenance dosing (MD) of aspirin (100 mg/d) and ticagrelor (90 mg twice daily) will be divided into two groups switching from ongoing ticagrelor to clopidogrel 600 mg loading dose (LD)/ 75 mg MD according to their bleeding risk. Then each group will randomly switch at different times(24 hours/ 12 hours after the last MD of ticagrelor). Pharmacodynamic assessments are performed at baseline, and at 4h, 8h, 24h, 48h, 72h hours with platelet aggregation rate by Light Transmittance Aggregometry method (LTA). All patients are followed-up for 30 days.
Cardiac rehabilitation includes aerobic and anaerobic training adapted to cardiovascular pathology for which cardiac rehabilitation is prescribed. It is essential to adapt the content of these cardiac rehabilitation sessions to optimize aerobic and anaerobic performance and quality of life. Improvement of the first ventilatory threshold is one of the main objectives since it illustrates the adaptation of the patient to submaximal exercise, typical of everyday life. The research laboratory "Autonomous Nervous System - Epidemiology, Physiology, Engineering, Health" (SPA-EPIS) has an international expertise in training optimization in top-athletes. He have shown the importance of the relationship between the power-force-velocity profile and athletes performances.
The study is an open-label, multicenter, and randomized study(five hospitals).The purpose of this study is to assess the differences in the effects of the evolocumab added to moderate-intensity statin therapy and the moderate-intensity statin only therapy on the regulation of LDL-C levels in patients with acute phase acute coronary syndrome after four weeks of treatment. The primary outcome is the percentage change in LDL-C in weeks 4 and week 12 after treatment. The secondary outcome is the occurrence of MACE after 12 weeks and 1 year of treatment.
