Filter by:To establish the effectiveness and tolerability of standard of care anti-anginal treatment (beta-blocker and calcium channel blocker medications) in older adults with symptomatic Stable Ischemic Heart Disease (SIHD) and multiple chronic conditions (MCC).
The purpose of this observational study is to compare the impact of rotational atherectomy to conventional stenting and to investigate how it may affect coronary microcirculation in patients with calcified coronary artery lesions and stable CAD. The study's objectives are to: - investigate the impact of rotational atherectomy on the prevalence of post-percutaneuos coronary intervention coronay microvascular dysfunction; - investigate the impact of conventional stenting on the prevalence of post-percutaneuos coronary intervention coronay microvascular dysfunction; and - compare the impact of both percutaneuos coronary interventions on coronary microvascular dysfunction. Patients with calcified lesions will be enrolled prospectively and will have serial invasive and non-invasive microvascular testing prior to and after rotational atherectomy or conventional stenting.
- Dual antiplatelet agent therapy (DAPT) is essential in treating PCI patients. DAPT can minimize thrombotic adverse events that occur not only at the stented lesion, but along the whole coronary tree. However, DAPT has a critical side effect of increasing bleeding complications. Addressing the clinical imperatives of lowering bleeding while preserving ischemic benefit requires therapeutic strategies that decouple thrombotic from hemorrhagic risk. - Recently, the ARC definition of high bleeding risk (HBR) has been published, so as to stress the need of optimal DAPT treatment in HBR patients. Due to the definitely higher bleeding risk in HBR patients, it would be rather more straight forward to titrate the optimal DAPT duration in these patients. In this line, many studies are in progress on HBR patients, with an ultra-short DAPT duration (i.e. Leaders free, Onyx ONE, Master DAPT, Xience 28, Xience 90, Evolve short DAPT trial, etc.). - As a counteract to the definition of HBR, there is a concept of LBR. Due to the relatively vague ischemic/bleeding risk in LBR patients, balancing ischemic and bleeding complications post-PCI is more difficult in LBR patients, which may be a more important dilemma for clinicians. In this regards, limited evidence exists on the optimal duration of DAPT in LBR patients. Various previous studies that have evaluated the optimal DAPT in PCI populations, did not have the concept of HBR or LBR, making interpretation difficult. - Therefore, this study is planning to compare the efficacy and safety of different DAPT durations, in patients stratified according to the ARB-HBR definition.
This feasibility trial will focus on older adults 60+ who are candidates for cardiac or pulmonary rehabilitation and who are vulnerable, mildly or moderately frail. We will randomize older frail adults living in rural regions of the county to Treatment as usual (TAU) or Stepped care (SC). TAU refers to center-based rehabilitation (CBR). Patients randomized to SC will be enrolled in traditional CBR and based on prespecified non-response criteria, will step up to three services: 1) Transportation-subsidized CBR, 2) Home-based telerehabilitation (TR), and 3) Community health worker-(CHW) supported home-based TR.
ORBITA-FIRE is a randomised, double-blinded, placebo controlled experimental study that will identify the fractional flow reserve (FFR) and non-hyperemic pressure ratio (NHPR) thresholds that correlate with symptoms of angina for 58 patients measured invasively under experimental conditions.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety aspirin in patients with chronic coronary syndromes without revascularization.
The purpose of the study is to identify proteins, metabolites and signal pathways related directly to symptomatic atherosclerosis and to disease progression. In the study, we use residual material from angioplasty catheter balloons and from vascular surgery plus blood samples. It is the hypothesis that material left on the catheter balloons used for angioplasty can be used for proteomics and metabolomics evaluation that will identify inflammation-associated proteins and signaling pathways directly in the diseased vessel. The tissue samples will be collected after the procedure and blood samples will be collected at the procedure plus after 6-12 months. The tissue and blood samples will be analyzed using mass spectrometry methods and a standard panel of biomarkers will also be analyzed using standardized methods. The analyses will include study of inflammation-associated peptides observed in autoinflammation as well as thrombogenic signaling pathways and local expression of biomarkers. The analyses of proteins, metabolites and/or biomarkers will be compared between cases (stable angina, unstable angina/non-STEMI, STEMI and vascular surgery) and controls (procedures not related to coronary artery diseases) to identify molecular processes related directly to symptomatic atherosclerosis and will be associated with disease progression using data from medical journals and National Health registries. The study will recruit 225 patients from Rigshospitalet University Hospital, Copenhagen, and Herlev-Gentofte Hospital.
The Kitasato PCI Registry is a single-center, observational, prospective study. This study aims to investigate the impact of characteristics in clinical manifestation, patients' background, procedure of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and pre/post PCI culprit/nonculprit lesion observed by intra-coronary imaging modality on clinical outcomes.
Despite the year-on-year decrease, coronary artery disease (CAD) still remains one of the leading cause of mortality worldwide. With advances in technology and our understanding of cardiac disease, we can now treat CAD using minimally invasive interventional techniques. This has revolutionised treatment for and improved the lives of many patients with CAD. Although trials have assessed various therapeutic strategies in various populations, real-world evidence of intervention and medical treatment among patients with CAD is increasingly recognised as an important part of providing safety and efficacy data and improving the care we provide. This data will add to that literature by assessing the characteristics and outcomes of patients with CAD. It will also identify and characterise predictors of outcomes, improve risk stratification and diagnostic evaluation.
This prospective, multicenter, non-randomized, single arm, objective performance goal (OPG) study is designed to evaluate clinical outcomes after complete revascularization by PCI and imaging guidance (OCT) in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease including left anterior descending (LAD) presenting with stable angina, or documented silent ischemia, or non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS).
