Filter by:This VISION study aims to investigate the role of inflammation in atherosclerosis using 68Ga- DOTATATE PET, and to validate 68Ga-DOTATATE PET imaging for the detection and quantification of vascular inflammation in the aorta, coronary and carotid arteries. This study will test the hypothesis that in subjects undergoing carotid endarterectomy for symptomatic plaques, there will be a positive correlation between carotid artery 68Ga-DOTATATE PET signal and the underlying degree of carotid inflammation measured by immunohistochemical analysis.
Ticagrelor therapy has been shown to reduce the rates of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality compared to clopidogrel therapy in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). The benefit of this study would be to demonstrate that ticagrelor therapy is associated with equivalent platelet inhibition irrespective of the disease status in patients undergoing PCI.
Objectives: To determine the efficacy of low rate fluoroscopy at 7.5 frames per second (FPS) vs. conventional 15 FPS for reduction of operator and patient radiation dose during diagnostic coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention via the transradial approach. Background: Transradial approach for cardiac catheterization is potentially associated with increased radiation exposure. Low rate fluoroscopy has potential to reduce radiation exposure.
In coronary artery bypass grafting, saphenous veins are widely used as a composite grafts that are Y-anastomosed to in-situ left internal thoracic artery. Based on our observation that remodeling of saphenous vein graft differs between those harvested from upper leg vein and lower leg, this study aims to compare histologic and immunohistochemical findings between saphenous vein grafts harvested from upper leg and lower leg.
The primary objective is to assess whether the increased angina threshold on ranolazine and subsequent higher training intensity will result in improved exercise tolerance and oxygen consumption; and greater than that observed with exercise training on placebo. The study team anticipates the chronic exercise improvements with ranolazine will be incrementally higher than the acute effects provided by ranolazine alone and demonstrated in previous trials. Key secondary objectives include the acute ranolazine and chronic exercise plus ranolazine effects on total daily energy expenditure (TDEE) and angina-related quality of life.
Study of heterogeneity in associations between heart rate and the initial presentation of 12 cardiovascular diseases.
Study of heterogeneity in associations between social deprivation and the initial presentation of 12 cardiovascular diseases.
Patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention with a residual high platelet reactivity despite oral clopidogrel are at increased risk of ischaemic complications. The strategies to overcome the issue consist of switch to a more potent antiplatelet medications including prasugrel or ticagrelor. Economic constrains of many countries still do not allow wide reimbursement of newer antiplatelet agents. Therefore a strategy to personalise treatment according to genotype and phenotype characteristics of the patient may provide an attractive solution combining high clinical efficacy with low budget impact.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety, at 24 months, of the TITAN2 stent to any bare-metal stent (BMS) in Cobalt-Chromium in a population presenting an indication for these stents among 40% of which present an acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
A randomised open-label pilot study to assess the safety and efficacy of treatment with a drug eluting balloon alone in coronary de novo lesions). Elective patients requiring PCI to coronary de novo lesions in vessels 2.5 mm - 4.0 mm.
