Registry Study on Drug Therapy and Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome
The hypothesis in this study was that ticagrelor switched to 60 mg after 1 month of standard dose, with antiplatelet activity that is not inferior to the standard dose and better than 75 mg clopidogrel for patients with ACS after PCI.
The study aims to show inferiority of rivaroxaban plus ticagrelor when compared to rivaroxaban plus clopidogrel in terms of safety. Safety will be determined by comparing the rates of death or ischemic event-including myocardial infarction, definite or probable stent thrombosis, stroke, or urgent revascularization.
To evaluate the short term out comes of the polymer free stents in patients presented with non ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (which include ST depression myocardial infarction and unstable angina ) after percutaneous coronary intervention .
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is increasing rapidly in Egyptian people and manifesting a younger age. Higher plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), is a major predictor for the development of CAD. However, whether oxidized-LDL (ox-LDL) can be used as a risk factor for myocardial infarction (MI) has not been fully investigated. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to examine the role of ox-LDL as a risk factor for the presence and clinical outcomes in patients with MI.
Frailty is known as an independent risk factor for morbidity and mortality in older cardiac patients . It is an important factor on the cardiologist decision between conservative and invasive treatment in older patient with acute coronary syndrome, and is usually made subjectively by the cardiologist known in the literature as eyeball testing. in this study the investigators will compare the cardiologists eye ball testing to objective frailty assessment based on Fried score and Edmonton frailty scale.
Mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and trauma-related stress (MD\AD\TRS) are common among men, particularly those suffering from heart disease (HD). MD\AD\TRS are significantly related to exacerbation of HD symptoms that often lead to death. Unfortunately, men are significantly less likely than women to seek and receive appropriate treatment for their mental health issues including MD\AD\TRS. Furthermore, there is little literature about the use of the stepped care model in the Canadian setting. The overarching goal of this interventional program is therefore to prevent, early detect and treat MD\AD\TRS in men living with HD. This Participatory Action Research aims to implement a stepped-care model for MD\AD\TRS in men in New Brunswick, Ontario, and quebec. The second phase of the project proposes a quantitative study that will consist of testing the effectiveness and acceptability (by the men and the involved health professionals) of the stepped-care model. It will offer to post ACS-males a mental health related component presently not available in the typical services of the NB health system. Data will be collected at baseline (0 month) and at four follow-up (each 3-months) sessions to manage the progress of each participant throughout their 12-month journey in the study. Typical sociodemographic data will be collected, along with a questionnaire on Masculinity Norms, Couples Satisfaction (when applicable), and four mental health assessment tools.
This randomized, controlled trial compares the anti-thrombotic effect of cangrelor and ticagrelor on platelet activity in patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Patients will receive either prehospital ticagrelor (180 mg - crushed) or in-hospital cangrelor (bolus 30 μg/kg within 1 minute followed by infusion (4 μg/kg/minute) for two hours) followed by 180 mg ticagrelor. The primary study end-point is platelet reactivity at sheath insertion, at the end of the PCI procedure (before sheath removal) and two hours after PCI is initiated. The secondary end-point is the proportion of patients with inappropriate or harmful P2Y12 administration.
