View clinical trials related to Angina, Stable.
Filter by:Angina is form of chest pain that is due to a lack of blood to the heart muscle. Angina is commonly triggered by stress and exertion, and is a common health problem worldwide. The diagnosis and treatment of angina is usually focused on detection of blockages in heart arteries, and relief of this problem with drugs, stents or bypass surgery. However, about one third of all invasive angiograms that are performed in patients with angina do not reveal any blockages. Many of such patients may have symptoms due to narrowings in the very small micro vessels (too small to be seen on an angiogram). The purpose of this research is to undertake a 'proof-of-concept' clinical trial to gather information as to whether routine tests of small vessel function in the heart might help identify patients with a stable coronary syndrome due to a disorder of coronary function (vasospastic or microvascular angina), and appropriately rule out this problem in patients with normal test results. The diagnostic strategy enables stratification of patient sub-groups to optimized therapy (personalised medicine). Evidence of patient benefits in this study would support the plan for a larger study that would be designed to impact on healthcare costs and patient reported outcome measures (PROMS).
The investigators designed the following experiment to observe the pattern of administration in vitro, which can be completely excluded liver enzyme cytochrome P450 metabolism under the influence and observe the relevant P2Y12 receptor downstream signal changes, hope in the above experiments, that the human body directly for the difference between the existence of drug reactions exist.
This study evaluates the Efficacy and Safety of Paclitaxel-Coated Balloon Catheter in Patients With Diffuse Long De Novo Lesions of Main Coronary Arteries.
A multi-center, prospective, consecutive enrolled, observational registry. The population being studied includes all patients undergoing treatment of "de novo" lesions in native coronary vessels, saphenous vein graft and/or arterial bypass conduits with the COBRA PzF coronary stent system. The registry will primarily assess the rate of MACE (cardiac death, myocardial infarction and clinically driven target lesion revascularization.
to evaluate safety and efficacy of CGBIO stent(DES) compared to Biomatrix flex stent(DES)
This is a pilot study designed to assess the relationship between iFR (instantaneous wave-free ratio) pullback and the distribution of coronary atheroma/stenoses as assessed by Quantitative Coronary Angiography (QCA) post angiographically successful PCI (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention).
Angina and heart attacks are caused by narrowings in the coronary arteries (blood vessels) supplying the heart. These narrowings can be opened using a balloon and stent (angioplasty). Traditionally, stents are constructed from metal and are permanent. However, newer stents are being constructed from carbohydrate polymers (scaffolds), which allow them to reabsorb over time leaving no permanent implant. New data has suggested that these scaffolds appear to reduce recurrent angina and may alter the blood flow down the artery. However, it is not known whether this is due to the scaffolds themselves or the way the scaffolds are inserted. In this study we hope to measure the blood flow to the heart and assess changes in that flow during stent and scaffold insertion. It is also important to know whether these effects are durable and thus, a cohort of patients will return at 3-months to be restudied. These data are important to help us understand why blood flow is affected by stent/scaffold selection or device implantation technique and whether this results in better long-term outcomes.
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is prevalent worldwide and the leading cause of mortality of citizens, external counter pulsation (ECP) has been elucidated that it may release angina symptoms and improve the prognosis of CAD, however, no multi-center control clinical study has been reported for further recommendation. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of ECP on CAD. To address this assumption, investigators enroll participants with stable CAD and randomize them into control or ECP group, the ECP intervention will be carried out with a standard protocol which involves 35 one-hour sessions (5 days a week) for continuous 7 weeks, and the follow-up will last for 1 year. The primary endpoint is the 1-year composite cardiovascular events (CCE), secondary endpoints include frequency of angina pectoris, heart function, biomarkers of arteriosclerosis, exercise tolerance and endothelial function.
The purpose of this study is to Evaluate the Safety of DILATREND SR Cap. in Korean Patients with Essential hypertension, Chronic stable angina and Congestive heart failure for 52 weeks.
Coronary Computed Tomography Angiogram (CCTA) is a non-invasive imaging modality that has high sensitivity and negative predictive value for the detection of coronary artery disease (CAD). The main limitations of CCTA are its poor specificity and positive predictive value, as well as its inherent lack of physiologically relevant data on hemodynamic significance of coronary stenosis, a data that is provided either by non-invasive stress tests such as myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) or invasively by measurement of the Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR). Recent advances in computational fluid dynamic techniques applied to standard CCTA are now emerging as powerful tools for virtual measurement of FFR from CCTA imaging (CT-FFR). These techniques correlate well with invasively measured FFR [1-4]. The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the incremental benefit CT-FFR as compared to CCTA in triaging chest pain patients in outpatient settings who are found to have obstructive CAD upon CCTA (> 30% and < 90% stenosis). Invasive FFR and short term clinical outcomes (90 days) will be correlated with each diagnostic modality in order to evaluate positive and negative predictive value of each when used incrementally with CCTA. This will be an observational trial in which patients will undergo a CCTA, as part of routine care. If the patient consents to participate in the study and is found to have coronary stenosis of 30% to 90%, based on the cardiologist's reading, the CCTA study will be sent to HeartFlow, a vendor that will provide a computerized FFR reading, based on the CCTA study. If the noninvasive FFR diagnosis indicates obstructive disease, the patient will be recommended to undergo cardiac catheterization with invasive FFR. As CCTA utilization increases, the need to train additional imaging specialists will increase. This study will assess the capability of FFR-CT to enhance performance on both negative and positive predictive value for less experienced readers by providing feedback based on CT-FFR evaluation. CCTA readers will be grouped in two categories: those with more than 10 years reading experience and those with less than 10 years reading experience. Each CCTA will be read by a less experienced and a more experienced reader. Results from each reader will be correlated with each other and with the CT-FFR and invasive FFR results.
