Filter by:Female patients presenting with persistent chest pain despite no obstructive coronary artery disease have impaired prognosis. Stress tests are often positive or inconclusive. As much as 20% of women with chest pain and minimal angiographic CAD have evidence of myocardial ischemia, suggesting impaired coronary microcirculation. The index of microvascular resistance (IMR) is a method for indirectly investigating microvascular function in the cardiac catheterization laboratory. 66 female patients, age 30-70 years, with chest pain and "normal" or near normal coronary angiograms will be included. After coronary physiologic evaluation, patients will be randomized in a double blind study to rosuvastatin 20 mg/day or matching placebo tablets for altogether 6 months. The investigators hypothesize that: 1. A substantial number of women with chest pain and normal or minimal pathology on angiograms have microvascular dysfunction defined by a raised IMR. 2. Statins, based on its pleiotropic action will improve endothelial function and thereby IMR.
Low intensity shockwaves have been proven in animal studies to induce local growth of new blood vessels from existing ones. The hypothesis of this study is that shockwave therapy could improve the symptoms of patients with refractory angina not amenable to revascularization with angioplasty or bypass surgery.

The purpose of this study is to implant the Reducer in patients with the symptoms of refractory angina, that suffer from refractory angina who demonstrate reversible ischemia.
Ranolazine is an effective and remarkably safe agent for the treatment of patients with chronic stable angina, but its inhibition of voltage gated potassium channels and electrocardiogram (EKG) corrected QT (QTc) prolongation properties have lead many to question its safety when combined with antiarrhythmic drugs. The investigators have proposed a study to determine the safety of ranolazine in patients with chronic stable angina who also take amiodarone. And are conducting a prospective single-center randomized single-blinded placebo controlled trial to run out of our large cardiology practice setting at Cardiovascular Consultants of Nevada. The hypothesis is that there will be no difference in the ventricular arrhythmia burden. The primary outcome will be the measurement of ventricular arrhythmia episodes on serial holter monitor and other serially acquired recordings (such as electrocardiogram, pacemaker or implantable defibrillator (ICD) data, and stress test data) over a three month trial period.
The objective of this study is to collect data on the commercial use of Corus CAD (Age/Sex/Gene Expression score - ASGES) blood test to evaluate the clinical referral patterns of Primary Care Physicians after receipt of their patients' Corus Score, and to better understand patient management patterns for clinicians ordering the test.
The aim of this study is to evaluate safety and efficacy performances of CRE8 Drug Eluting Stent, in patients comparable to the everyday's clinical practice population, with a specific focus on diabetics, that will be part of a pre-specified study subgroup.
The purpose of this study is to describe the clinical profile and current status of the diagnosis and management of stable angina in India by non-interventional consulting physicians (CP) through a large multicenter observational registry.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a single intracoronary infusion of Ad5FGF-4, delivered during induced transient ischemia, is effective in improving myocardial perfusion, angina functional class, patient symptoms, and quality of life. Short-term (8 weeks) and long-term (12 month) safety of Ad5FGF-4 will also be evaluated. The primary endpoint is change in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) stress SPECT reperfusion defect size.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of febuxostat, once daily (QD), compared to placebo as an add on to stable anti-anginal therapy, on the total exercise time of participants with Chronic Stable Angina.
