Filter by:This study will evaluate the effectiveness of a novel cardiovascular disease prevention program designed for delivery through existing primary health care services in rural villages in Andhra Pradesh. The primary aim is to increase the number of high-risk individuals in the population that are appropriately managed with proven, low-cost preventive interventions. The corresponding null hypothesis is therefore that the prevention program will result in no change in the proportion of high-risk individuals identified and treated in villages assigned to intervention compared with those villages assigned to control.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether bivalirudin given during PCI is associated with better outcomes compared to un-fractionated heparin.
To study the efficacy of multicomponent treatment and care for patients with acute illness or deterioration of a chronic disease at a nursing home in primary health care compared to traditional treatment at hospital.
The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that the long-term use of highly (＞98%) purified EPA, in addition to HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (statin), would be more effective than statin alone in preventing cardiovascular events in Japanese patients with hypercholesterolemia.
We wish to see if the drug rosiglitazone, currently used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, could be used as a new treatment for angina when compared with placebo in overweight subjects who do not have overt diabetes. The drug will be given for 3 months and the subjects will be have their angina tested, by way of exercise testing, angina quality of life questionnaire and 24-hour ECG monitoring before and after using the drug.
The principle objective of the trial is to compare rosiglitazone to gliclazide in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic stable angina to see how the subjects' angina status changes. Angina status will be measured via exercise tolerance testing, 24-hour ECG testing and angina quality of life questionnaire.
In the ASCET study, 1000 patients with documented coronary heart disease will be randomized to either continued treatment with aspirin 160 mg/d or change to clopidogrel 75mg/d. Clinical endpoints will be recorded for at least 2 years and related to the initial aspirin response, assessed by the PFA-100® method, to investigate whether aspirin non-responders have higher composite event rate than responders or whether Clopidogrel treatment in patients non-responsive to aspirin will reduce their risk of future clinical events. The clinical events are the composite of unstable angina, myocardial infarction, stroke or death.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether treatment with an experimental gene therapy (BIOBYPASS®) will reduce angina in study participants by stimulating the growth of new blood vessels. This will be measured by testing whether participants are able to exercise longer without experiencing angina after treatment, as compared to before treatment. Additionally, this study will collect information about any side effects that might be related to the treatment with the experimental therapy.
To test whether ivabradine when given in combination with atenolol is able to improve the exercise tolerance of patients with stable angina pectoris
The therapy under investigation involves an implanted Medtronic neurostimulation system to relieve symptoms of angina pectoris pain. Electrical impulses are applied to targeted areas of the spinal cord through an implanted lead (a flexible insulated wire) that is powered by an implanted battery.
