View clinical trials related to Acute Coronary Syndrome.
Filter by:Patients suffering from Acute coronary syndrome may be hospitalized again in a shorter time than expected, and after being discharged, they may live within the limitations imposed by the disease until the end of their lives. This situation causes anxiety in individuals. Today, various methods are used to reduce high levels of anxiety. Massage is the planned and purposeful application of touch and is the most common, most important and oldest complementary treatment used in traditional practices. It is also thought that the comfort levels of individuals experiencing ACS will increase by reducing their anxiety. This study was planned to determine the effect of hand massage applied to patients with ACS on comfort, anxiety level and vital signs.
The investigators aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of short-term DAPT (3 months for SCAD, 6 months for ACS) after PCI with Genoss DES in patients with coronary artery disease.
The investigators intend to establish a multi-center prospective observational study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Genoss DES by registering and tracking patients treated for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) as research subjects using Genoss DES, which was manufactured purely with domestic technology.
Identify circulating protein-coding (mRNAs) or non-coding (ncRNAs) transcripts (ACS_signature) predictive of ventricular dysfunction in ACS patients undergoing PCI.
Patients with a non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) are currently transported and admitted to the nearest emergency department (ED) for risk stratification, diagnostic workup, and treatment. Recently, several prospective studies have been performed on the diagnostic performance of point-of-care (POC)-troponin and combined risk scores (CRS) for pre-hospital risk assessment and triage of NSTE-ACS patients. Also the first intervention trials on triage decisions based on POC troponin and CRS have been performed. Initial results are indicating that prehospital triage based on these diagnostic tools is feasible and safe, although sample sizes were relatively small and underpowered to detect differences in major adverse cardiac events (MACE). The objective of this individual patient data meta-analysis is to determine the diagnostic performance of POC troponin and combined risk scores for prehospital risk assessment and triage in suspected NSTE-ACS patients.
This study is part of the RHU INNOV-CKD, winner of the 2019 call for projects. Its aim is to develop two biomarker assays to assess the thrombotic and haemorrhagic risks in patients with stage 3A or more severe chronic kidney disease (CKD) treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and antiplatelet therapy following an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We believe that these tests will help to adapt antiplatelet therapy on an individual basis (in terms of intensity and duration of treatment) and thus reduce the risk of thrombotic and haemorrhagic events in this particularly fragile population. The first biomarker corresponds to an intra-platelet molecule, Rap1b in its active form (known as aRap1b). The second is the pro-antithrombotic balance of circulating endothelial microvesicles (patEMV), which reflects endothelial dysfunction. An automated method for measuring these biomarkers will be developed in partnership with the D.Stago and BioCytex industries during the course of the project.
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) encompasses a continuum of clinical situations secondary to acute myocardial ischemia. In France, it is a major health problem and represented 60,000 to 65,000 hospitalizations in 2010. In 2015, a diagnosis of ACS was made in 15 to 25% of patients consulting for chest pain in emergency medicine. The incidence of ACS is estimated between 80,000 and 100,000 new cases per year. At the University Hospital Center (CHU) of Réunion, acute chest pain is the leading cause of discharges from the Mobile Emergency and Resuscitation Service (SMUR). In 2019, it represented 23% of exits, 8.5% of which concerned SCAs. The SCA can be anxiety-provoking due to its unexpected and brutal nature. Pain related to myocardial ischemia generates anxiety. This increases when patients associate these pains with death. This anxiety is exacerbated by waiting times for care, especially for patients living in rural areas. In addition, conditions relating to medical care such as noise and the pre-hospital medical environment are perceived as influencing anxiety by patients. The prevalence of anxiety is high, ranging from 30 to 48.5%, in patients with chest pain and/or ACS. A 2020 meta-analysis revealed that anxious patients at the start of their ACS treatment had an increased risk of death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, rehospitalization, recurrence of ACS and the need for coronary revascularization repeated. Overall, ACS patients with anxiety have a 21% increased risk of mortality and 47% increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events compared to those without anxiety. Pre-hospital anxiolytic treatment is therefore essential and consists above all in reassuring the patient with ACS. Medicated anxiolytics are often combined with analgesics and recommended in front of a picture of agitation due to anxiety. However, negative effects may interfere, making clinical monitoring of these patients unsuitable. At the same time, several studies note that anxiety is underdiagnosed and undertreated in the care of these patients. In reducing the anxiety of patients with ACS, unconventional care techniques such as aromatherapy or touch massage have demonstrated their effectiveness. Music therapy is recognized in reducing the anxiety of patients in intensive care or Cardiology. To the knowledge, in France, the effect of a musical intervention on patients with pre-hospital ACS has not yet been studied. It is in this context that the MuSCA study takes place.
Disorders of glycemic regulation are common in patients hospitalized for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Abnormal glycaemia is observed in 50% of cases, in 30-40% diabetes, and in 25-35% fasting hyperglycaemia or glucose intolerance. Hyperglycemia is a major prognostic factor in ACS, with admission hyperglycemia having independent prognostic value for both short- and long-term major cardiovascular events (MACE), regardless of the presence of diabetes. Metabolically, several situations can be distinguished: - Hyperglycaemia occurs in known non-diabetic ACS subjects. It can be indicative of (i) Type 2 Diabetes or (ii) stress hyperglycaemia (diagnostic threshold for blood sugar varies according to learned societies, with HbA1c < 6.5%). - Hyperglycaemia occurs in known diabetic ACS subjects Most studies use admission blood sugar as a predictor. However, it has recently been shown that glycemic variability indexes would be better predictors of MACE. Using continuous glucose measurement for 48 h, it has been shown that significant glycemic variability is a more powerful predictor of MACE at 1 year than admission glycemia The measurement of glycemic variability is mainly possible thanks to the development of CGM (continuous glucose measurement). To our knowledge, no study has been interested in evaluating the predictive value of the various glycemic parameters measured by CGM. Published studies have used continuous glucose measurements for very short periods (24 or 72 hours maximum), which limits these measurements. The freestyle libre Pro iQ (FSLPro iQ) is a professional sensor for continuous, non-invasive interstitial glucose measurement allowing the recording of glycemic parameters for 2 weeks. Our hypothesis is that glycaemic parameters, alone or in combination with each other or with other patient risk factors, measured with the Freestyle libre Pro iQ have a significant prognostic value in terms of cardiovascular clinical events at 12 months in a population of patients with ACS managed as standard and followed up.
This clinical trial aims to compare conventional radial access versus distal radial access in patients with STEMI undergoing PCI. The main question it aims to answer is: • Mayor adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 30 days in STEMI patients treated by PCI are not inferior when comparing the distal radial approach versus the conventional radial approach ? Participants will: - sign the informed consent to enroll in the clinical trial. - will agree to be treated by PCI - will be randomized 1:1 to perform PCI by conventional radial or distal radial approach. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare conventional radial access vs distal radial access to see if the distal approach is not inferior compared to the conventional radial access in order to offer less or equal MACE and a similar rate of a successful procedure.
To achieve the stent optimization following "Keep It Simple and Safe" coronary intervention is recommended. A protocol of Joint Inflation with Nominal-pressure and Stability (JINS) approach in coronary drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation by intracoronary imaging (ICI) guidance could provide additional benefits in reducing unnecessary radiation exposure, and post-dilatation balloon angioplasty-related complications.
