Filter by:This prospective, single arm, observational cohort study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of (high-definition) intravascular ultrasound (HD-IVUS) as guidance for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to assess culprit lesion plaque characteristics and thrombus morphology in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Objectives: - To assess clinical outcomes after IVUS-guided primary PCI in STEMI patients. - To assess IVUS-guided optimization in STEMI patients. - To assess culprit lesion plaque characteristics in STEMI patients with HD-IVUS. - To assess and quantify thrombus in STEMI patients with HD-IVUS. - To explore HD-IVUS derived predictors for clinically relevant aspiration thrombectomy.
The Covid-19 pandemic and its health and societal consequences raise fears of a deterioration in the management of non-Covid-19 pathologies, particularly those requiring rapid treatment. These fears relate in particular to strokes and acute myocardial infarctions (AMI), the two most frequent diseases, for which emergency treatment is a major factor in the vital and functional prognosis of patients. They are based on activity data from the emergency services, which have shown a sharp drop in admissions for AMI and strokes at the start of the pandemic. This drop is interpreted as being partly linked to a tendency for patients to delay or even give up care, which may be explained by fear of contamination, the desire not to solicit already overworked healthcare professionals and overload in emergency structures. In addition, studies have shown that the time required to treat AMI during the pandemic phase in China has been extended due to the new organizations set up in healthcare institutions in connection with this major health event. In addition, certain inequalities in access to care, already identified during the non- pandemic period among AMI and stroke patients, are likely to be accentuated by the new healthcare organizations set up during the pandemic period. The investigators are interested in the impact of changes in healthcare utilization and reorganization within hospitals, related to the Covid-19 pandemic, on the quality of the care pathway for stroke and AMI patients in the Aquitaine region. The investigators also study the role of the socio-demographic, socio-economic and geographical characteristics of these patients as factors of inequality of access to care during this period. The project is based on data collected within the Aquitaine Cardio-Neuro-Vascular Registries (CNV), an exhaustive cohort of stroke and AMI patients treated by a health care institution in Aquitaine. They are an excellent tool for describing the care pathway and outcomes of these patients, from the onset of symptoms to the end of the acute episode. An additional collection is planned to collect all the organizations and activities set up within the hospitals in Aquitaine. The study period, from January 2019 to August 2020, provides sufficient time before lockdown and after the date of the end of lockdown, to analyze trends in the quality of pathways, according to the various reorganizations of the health system and changes in the use of care linked to the management of the Covid-19 pandemic. The project identifies the reorganizations with the most striking consequences on the quality of care for patients suffering from non Covid-19 pathologies. It analyzes the changes in the behaviour of patients and their family and caregivers in their use of care during the Covid-19 pandemic and their impact on the care pathways and results. It contributes to the policy of reducing inequalities in access to care and to the definition of a health strategy in the event of a major health crisis.
This study will randomize patients recently discharged from the hospital with a confirmed diagnosis of type 1 acute myocardial infarction (Thygesen et al. 2018) and having additional cardiovascular risk factors.
Recently, more and more studies have confirmed that intestinal flora is closely related to the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases.Bile acids (BAS), short chain fatty acids (SCFA) and trimethylamine oxide (TMAO), the main metabolites of intestinal flora, are the key mediators of the interaction between gut and host. We aim to explore the association of BAs and SCFA with cardiac function in patients with AMI.
To evaluate the protective effect of IPC on the myocardial microcirculation response through IMR and the predictive value of IMR on the degree of myocardial reperfusion and the prognosis of patients.
This study is a randomized, controlled clinical trial. Evaluation of microcirculation resistance by index of microcirculation resistance to explore the protective effect of Shexiang Tongxin dripping pills on microcirculation in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction.
Different types of statins show different influences on glycometabolism. There are no systemic analyses of the effects that statins exert on the metabolism of glucoses so far in China. This research aims to compare impacts on the glycometabolism of pitavastatin in AMI patients with atorvastatin and to accumulate data for guiding the utilization of statins.
The purpose of this research is to find out if doing cardiac rehab at home, or a mix of cardiac rehab at home and in the clinic, is as effective as coming in to the clinic for cardiac rehab.
We aimed to identify whether SGLT-2 inhibitor administration before and after coronary intervention is effective in reducing the size of infarction and myocardial remodeling in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and high risk of heart failure, and its mechanism. For this reason, we compared cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) parameters and clinical outcomes between the SGLT-2 inhibitor group and the control group to confirm the efficacy and safety of SGLT-2 inhibitors.
To assess the effect of FDY-5301 on cardiovascular mortality and acute heart failure events in subjects with an anterior STEMI undergoing pPCI.
