Filter by:Cocaine use has increased in our country in recent decades. It is associated with cardiovascular events and early atherosclerotic disease. Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is one of its most frequent and serious manifestations. There is a lack of scientific information on ACS associated with acute and chronic cocaine use in Argentina. This study aims to describe the socioeconomic, clinical, and coronary angiographic characteristics, as well as the extent of atherosclerotic disease in patients with ACS associated with cocaine use, and to compare them with ACS not associated with cocaine use. Methods: We propose an observational, analytical, single-center, two-phase study, with a retrospective and a prospective component. Patients with a diagnosis of ACS admitted to the coronary care unit of a high-complexity public hospital will be included. Clinical, biochemical, coronary angiographic, extracoronary atherosclerotic disease extension and prognostic variables will be described. These variables will be compared between patients with cocaine-associated ACS and non-cocaine-associated ACS.
Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are at a higher risk of ischemic complications, even while receiving proper dual antiplatelet therapy. For this reason, identifying high-risk patients and personalizing treatment according to their profile could be a solution towards improving the efficacy and safety of the antiplatelet treatment. This is a prospective single centre study analyzing correlations and clinical outcomes of patients in relation to biomarkers in acute coronary syndrome. The blood samples were collected from patients admitted to the hospital with a diagnosis of ACS and treated with dual antiplatelet therapy. The blood samples were collected from each patient within the first 24 hours after the admission for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and after 72 hours of hospitalization.
The goal of this observational study is to investigate the potential differences in thrombogenicity between black and white patients admitted with atherothrombotic events including acute coronary syndrome, multi-vessel coronary disease, and ischemic stroke. Participants will engage in laboratory testing and health outcome assessments.
Effects of insulin resistance in non-diabetic acute coronary syndrome patients by the homeostasis model assessment index (HOMA2-IR)
This protocol proposes to prospectively evaluate current epidemiology, pharmacologic and invasive management and clinical outcomes of patients with acute cardiovascular diseases admitted at our ICCU.
The single-center MIR-registry was created to assess real-world prevalence, demographic characteristics and management of patients with acute coronary syndrome presenting in the emergency department (ED) of University of Heidelberg.
The aim of this study is evaluating safety and effectiveness of Ovine Enoxaparin Sodium in Non-ST-Segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome (NSTEACS) Patients
Cardiac readaptation aims to mitigate cardiovascular risks and enhance the quality of life among coronary patients. Our research laboratory has an international expertise in training optimization in top-athletes and a previous study has demonstrated the efficacy of optimizing cardiac rehabilitation through the power-force-velocity profile (PFVP). The findings exhibited significant improvements in aerobic capacity, muscular strength, and cardiovascular parameters among patients who were trained based on their PFVP. Guided training utilizing heart rate variability (HRV) is also garnering increasing interest as a means to optimize training load and promote recovery
Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is a widely accepted initial diagnostic test for individuals suspected of having chronic coronary syndromes. However, there is limited evidence supporting its use in the acute setting. So far, no large-scale randomized trial has examined the performance of CCTA as an alternative to invasive coronary angiography (ICA) in individuals with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEACS). If CCTA were to replace ICA as a routine procedure for individuals with NSTEACS, it could reduce the risk of complications related to ICA, improve patient comfort, expedite decision-making, and reduce healthcare expenses and interhospital transfers.
For patients with ACS undergoing PCI, intensive lipid-lowering including PCSK9 monoclonal antibody should be started as soon as possible, that is, lower LDL-C level should be achieved as soon as possible. Compared with conventional lipid-lowering regimen, it is expected that the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events can still be reduced after drug discontinuation. Therefore, the optimization strategy of "for patients with ACS undergoing PCI, intensive lipid-lowering with PCSK9 monoclonal antibody can be started as soon as possible" is proposed.
