Filter by:The SuperSaturated Oxygen Comprehensive Observational Registry (SSCORE) registry, a prospectively designed observational study, aims to evaluate the clinical utility and effectiveness of SuperSaturated Oxygen (SSO2) Therapy versus percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) alone among patients with anterior acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in routine clinical practice. The goal is to collect real-world data from patients treated with SSO2 Therapy to determine its impact on the overall heart failure (HF) burden on patients and healthcare systems compared with usual care for treatment of patients with AMI. The SSCORE Registry will generate effectiveness and healthcare resource utilization data that will be used in cost-effectiveness analysis modeling.
Recent clinical trials have proven the cardiovascular benefits of new medications for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), especially sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. There are no existing randomized clinical trials evaluating the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin (nor any other SGLT2-inhibitor) to limit cardiac remodeling in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. Preventing cardiac remodeling, an established predictor of subsequent heart failure (HF) and cardiovascular death, is likely to translate into benefit in reducing clinical events in post-MI patients.
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is one of the leading causes of death around the world, with the potential for substantial morbidity and mortality. The increasing evidence indicates that exercise training has beneficial effects on LV remodelling in post-MI patients with greater benefits occurring when training earlier following MI, among which the earliest time for rehabilitation is one week after myocardial infarction. However, the effect of Baduanjin sequential therapy for patients after one week of AMI has yet to be assessed. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the impact of Baduanjin sequential therapy on cardiac and physical function in patients with AMI and reduced ejection fraction after primary PCI.
Rationale: The interaction between nonvitamin K oral anticoagulants (NOACs) and platelet aggregation is complex. The direct activated factor X inhibitors (factor Xa inhibitors) an NOAC antagonizes thrombin generation, one of most important platelet agonist, so that, factor Xa inhibitors has a potential effect in decreasing thrombin-mediated platelet aggregation. On the other hand, patients who experience ACS continue to have a hypercoagulable state for long periods after the index event. The COMPASS trial showed that, in patients with stable coronary artery disease (SCAD), Rivaroxaban (a direct anti-Xa inhibitor) in addition to antiplatelet agent, compared to antiplatelet therapy alone, reduced the composite endpoint of myocardial infarction, stroke and death. Objective: Analyze the role of edoxaban on platelet aggregation in SCAD patients. Methods and Results: This is a prospective, non-randomized, interventional study of SCAD patients taking low-dose acetylsalicylic acid (ASA). Subjects initially will receive in the following sequence: ASA 100 mg once daily (QD) plus edoxaban 60 mg QD, clopidogrel 75 mg QD alone, clopidogrel 75 mg QD plus edoxaban 60 mg QD, and edoxaban 60 mg QD alone. Platelet function will be assessed by standard of care technology, at baseline and after each intervention phase, by Multiplate-ADP® (primary endpoint), Multiplate-Aspi® and Multiplate-TRAP®. In addition to immature platelets fraction (% IPF) and count (IPC). Coagulability will be assessed, at baseline and after each intervention phase, by thromboelastogram (TEG) assessment. Specifically, after the phases in which edoxaban will be administered activated factor X (FXa) level and Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) will be evaluated in addition to previous. Finally, inflammatory markers will be, at same way, assessed at baseline and after intervention each phase: ultrasensitive C-reactive protein (us-PCR). Keywords: edoxaban, direct factor Xa inhibitor, stable coronary artery disease, aspirin, clopidogrel, platelet aggregation.
To understand the effect of beta blockers on the prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction with preserved ejection fraction.
The Programme is focused on adult patients of any gender and age more than 18 y.o., with the next conditions: 1. Acute cerebrovascular events (ACE, ischemic stroke or intracerebral hemorrhage - specialty neurology) 2. Acute myocardial infarction (AMI, specialty cardiology) 3. Patients after total hip replacement (THR, specialty orthopaedia) The program is performed in the in-patient and out-patient rehabilitation departments in 13 regions of the Russian Federation (total 244 departments).
Primary objective: To demonstrate that in hyperglycemic subjects with anterior STEMI (ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction) undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI), tight glycemic control using insulin glulisine and insulin glargine, i.e. Intensive Insulin Therapy (IIT), results in reducing infarct size at day 60 versus (vs) Standard Glycemic Care (SGC). Secondary objectives: To demonstrate that tight glycemic control using insulin glulisine and insulin glargine reduces markers of inflammation and improves Left Ventricular (LV) function and Cardio-Vascular (CV) outcomes from baseline values, in hyperglycemic subjects with STEMI undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI).
The trial aims to evaluate 12-month long-term efficiency of Excel stent in the treatment of coronary heart disease and inhibition of restenosis after coronary artery stenting as well as a 12 months' long-term safety after the cessation of clopidogrel as an anti-platelet drugs used for 6 months after the implantation of degradable drug coating stent.
In spite of declining trend coronary heart disease (CHD) is still a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Many years of epidemiological research have identified several risk factors for CHD. The main causes are physical inactivity and inappropriate diet (mediated through high blood pressure, high cholesterol and fatness) and smoking. So far intervention studies on lifestyle factors have shown disappointing results, most probably due to insufficient interventions and methodology. Inter99 is a randomized non-pharmacological intervention study comprising 61,301 persons representing a well-defined population. About 13,000 are invited for a health examination and assessment of risk for CHD. Those at high risk are offered lifestyle intervention in three waves over a five year period. A priori the group is divided into a high intensive and low intensive intervention group. The remaining 48.285 individuals serve as control. After five years all individuals who attended the base-line examination are re-invited to assess the effect of the intervention on intermediate end-points as lifestyle, absolute risk of CHD and biological risk factors. The total cohort (61.301) is followed through central registers to evaluate the effect of the intervention on use of the health care system and the long term effect on incidence of CHD. The status for the project is that the four waves of intervention have been performed, the last follow-up was in March 2006. Data collection finalized with 10 years follow-up via Central National Registries and a questionnaire. No further follow-up is scheduled for the main purposes of the study. Analyses as regard the primary effect (on incidence of cardiovascular diseases) and secondary effect (on incidence of type 2 diabetes) are on-going. Analyses for a large number of spin off project are on-going. More than 25 Ph.d. studies and more than 200 peer-review publication have so far been produced.
