Filter by:The purpose of this implementation trial is to execute a nurse-led, home-based cardiac rehabilitation (HBCR) program, evaluate the program's impact on patient outcomes over 6 months; and compare outcomes of HeartHome (HH) participants to a group of participants in traditional cardiac rehabilitation (CR).
The Distal Radial Access (DRA) to the coronaries has emerged recently. It's done via the distal radial artery in the radial fossa, which is known as the snuff-box. The rationale of conducting this research is to assess this new access advantages and disadvantages, in comparison with the standard conventional forearm radial access and examine if it's worthy to be a future alternative method for coronary angiography. It aims to randomly compare between the new distal radial access via the snuffbox and the conventional forearm radial access for percutaneous coronary angiography and angioplasty procedures. The objectives of comparing both procedures are to analyze the frequency of complications in terms of occlusion, arterial spasm, hematoma, and to weigh accesses effectiveness in terms of time and attempts to puncture, crossover rate, procedure duration, hemostasis time, and convenience of the patients and operators. Candidates for coronary angiography are being randomized into the interventional group to undergo the angiography through the distal radial artery as the access site, or the control group accessing through the radial artery in the forearm. Procedural and post procedural outcomes and complications are being reported while patients are in hospital. All patients undergo doppler ultrasonography within 24 hours after the procedure.
This study evaluates the addition of the CADScorSystem to a standard Diamond-Forrester score guided rule-out strategy in ambulatory patients referred with symptoms suggestive of stable coronary artery disease. Half of the patients will undergo stratification using a Diamond-Forrester score only, while the other half will undergo stratification using a Diamond-Forrester score and a CAD-score. The study hypothesis is that the addition of a CAD-score will reduce unnecessary testing without compromising patient safety.
This study, designed as a retrospective registry, aims to investigate the relationship and potential interplay between fractional flow reserve (FFR) or instantaneous waves free ratio (iFR) with wall shear stress (WSS) in the context of intermediate coronary stenosis.
Although some important progresses were made in the field of the meridian research, no breakthroughs have been achieved. Besides,there are some problems in meridian researches. Particularly, previous research of meridian phenomenon involved lots of subjective elements and outcomes.Researches that use modern scientific techniques to investigate the biological characteristics of meridian phenomenon are urgently needed. Therefore, this study is designed to assess the heat transport characteristics of meridian phenomenon for the Heart and Lung meridians by using infrared thermal imaging. Thus, the biological characteristics of meridian phenomenon could be presented objectively in a scientific methodology.
Coronary artery disease (including stable angina and acute coronary disease) remains the leading mortality and morbidity worldwide. Improvement in biomarker, imaging research have led to new predictors for the prognosis, which may have great clinical value in the current era of personalized medicine. However, there is no available biomarker-based prediction rule for risk assessment of adverse events in patients with stable angina and acute coronary disease. Therefore, we aim to develop and validate a new biomarker-based risk model to improve the prognostication of adverse events (e.g. ischemic and bleeding events ) in the patient population.

Particularly, previous research of meridian phenomenon involved lots of subjective elements and outcomes.Researches that use modern scientific techniques to investigate the biological characteristics of meridian phenomenon are urgently needed. Therefore, this study is designed to assess the metabolic characteristics of meridian phenomenon for the Heart and Lung meridians by using near infrared spectroscopy. Thus, the biological characteristics of meridian phenomenon could be presented objectively in a scientific methodology.

Particularly, previous research of meridian phenomenon involved lots of subjective elements and outcomes.Researches that use modern scientific techniques to investigate the biological characteristics of meridian phenomenon are urgently needed. Therefore, this study is designed to assess the microcirculatory characteristics of meridian phenomenon for the Heart and Lung meridians by using laser doppler. Thus, the biological characteristics of meridian phenomenon could be presented objectively in a scientific methodology.
Patients aged 18-89 with stable CAD and comorbidities receiving optimal medical treatment requiring PCI with iodinated contrast media. The aim of the study is to assess the prevalence of contrast-induced AKI in 2012-2013 and 2017 cohorts and to evaluate the potential risk factors of CI-AKI to better guide the prevention in patients of higher risk.
Non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), particularly common in women, has been associated with impaired quality of life and risk of recurrent hospitalizations. Several studies have also demonstrated increased risk of incident acute coronary events and mortality. The main objective of the project is to assess the association between coronary artery plaque features by coronary CT angiography and long term prognosis in a large unselected population undergoing CT coronary angiography due to stable angina and suspected myocardial ischemia from the Norwegian Registry for Invasive Cardiology (NORIC) diagnosed with non-obstructive CAD by coronary CT angiography.
