Filter by:Exploratory, single-dose, open-label, pharmacokinetic study to establish uptake, plasma levels safety and tolerability of orally administered AUX-001 on an empty stomach (i.e, fasting) as well as after a meal (i.e. fed) in healthy volunteers.
This retrospective study will evaluate the coronary angiograms of approximately 100 patients who have undergone invasive angiography and fractional flow reserve (FFR). DICOM files of the angiograms will be analyzed on a secure computer within the cardiac catheterization laboratory using the AutocathFFR software to assess if invasive FFR measurements and automated computer analysis of FFR measurements correlate. AutocathFFR measurement per lesion will be compared to the gold standard, invasive FFR value, where an FFR ≤ 0.80 will be considered "positive", while an FFR > 0.8 will be considered "negative". The AutocathFFR value will be compared to the invasive FFR measurements. The sensitivity and specificity of the AutocathFFR will be calculated, as well as the AutocathFFR accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value per lesion. Device success will be calculated as the ratio of completed versus initiated AutocathFFR index calculations. Usability of the AutocathFFR software will be evaluated using dedicated questionnaires to be completed by the user (cardiologists).
The purpose of this study is to assess whether the use of physiology parameters as guidance post-percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) is associated with less risks of target vessel failure (TVF) and angina-related events than standard angiographic guidance.
The aim of the study is to investigate if lesion preparation with a ScoreFlex balloon compared to a standard non-compliant balloon improve vascular healing and minimize lumen reduction after implantation of a Magmaris bioresorbable scaffold.
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.
Angina in patients without obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) is a clinical conundrum and patient management is heterogeneous. Hypothesis: Abnormal coronary function is common and clinically relevant in this population. Design: An observational cohort study and nested randomised controlled diagnostic strategy trial. Methods: 250 patients with known or suspected angina informed by validated questionnaires but without obstructive CAD (<70% stenosis) in an artery >=2.5 mm or structural heart disease, as revealed by CT coronary angiography (CTCA), will be invited to undergo coronary function testing (FFR, CFR, IMR; intra-coronary ACh) during invasive angiography. Patients will be randomised following angiography but before testing coronary function to disclosure of the coronary function test results or not. Treatment decisions by the attending cardiologist will be recorded before and after disclosure of results. Outcomes: Primary: The between-group difference in the reclassification rate of the initial diagnosis using logistic regression, adjusted for baseline factors associated with the likelihood of reclassification of the initial diagnosis. Secondary: Prevalence of microvascular or vasospastic angina; health status reflected by the EuroQol group 5-Dimensions (EQ-5D), Seattle Angina Questionnaire, Illness perception, treatment satisfaction questionnaires and functional status questionnaires; angina medication and adherence. Value: This research will provide new insights into the conundrum of angina in patients without obstructive CAD or structural heart disease.
Serum uric acid level is a commonly measured biomarker. The association between serum uric acid level and the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases has been observed in some studies, while others showed controversial results. Estimation of this association may help to predict cardiovascular outcomes and may guide new treatment strategies. The hypothesis is that increased serum uric acid level is associated with a range of cardiovascular diseases.
Approximately 5 to 8% of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions requires chronic anticoagulant therapy due to atrial fibrillation or other clinical entities. There are many possible different combinations of the antithrombotic therapy after stent implantation in these patients. Aim of this observational study is to evaluate the real world antithrombotic treatment in patients requiring anticoagulant therapy undergoing stent implantation and to compare the clinical outcome of patients treated with new oral anticoagulant drugs compared to warfarin. The study is prospective, performed in different Italian hospitals and aimed to enroll 1080 patients with a 1 year follow up
The current study sought to evaluate the clinical relevance of iFR-guided strategy in real world clinical practice using unrestricted study population from stable angina to acute coronary syndrome including acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Previous abundant historical data of FFR-guided strategy will be also included as historical control to validate the iFR-guided strategy.
A randomised controlled trial to compare two strategies for the investigation of coronary artery disease at the time of angiography. Patients will be randomised to conventional angiography or additional, routine pressure wire assessment - measuring fractional flow reserve (FFR) - in all main vessels judged as being of sufficient vessel calibre to allow percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (experimental arm).
