NCT ID: NCT03085823 Completed - Clinical trials for Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

The All-comers Sirolimus-coated Balloon European Registry

EASTBOURNE
Start date: September 2016
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

The purpose of this study is to observe and evaluate the performance of a Sirolimus-eluting Drug Coated Balloon for the treatment of any type of coronary lesions, including native vessel disease and in stent restenosis.

Aquatic Aerobic Training, Cardiorespiratory and Metabolic Variables in Coronary Artery Disease

Start date: May 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Although approaches to reduce cardiovascular disease, coronary artery disease (CAD) remains the leading cause of mortality in the industrialized world. In order to reduce the deleterious effects of the atherosclerotic process, proposals for non-pharmacological treatment have been used, such as cardiac rehabilitation programs, with emphasis on exercise -based therapy. Traditionally aerobic exercises like biking, walking and jogging are conducted, however, alternative ways such as aquatic exercise training have been proposed, however, the cardiorespiratory adaptations in this population are not well documented in the literature. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of aquatic aerobic training (AAT) on body composition, autonomic modulation of heart rate (HR) and cardiorespiratory and metabolic variables in patients with CAD. This was a longitudinal clinical trial with a sample allocated for convenience, in which twenty-one patients were male, with a diagnosis of CAD, which were divided into control group (CG were studied, n=8), who was only assessed, and training group (TG, n=13). All patients underwent assessment of body composition, heart rate variability (HRV) at rest in the supine posture, and cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), performed before and after the AAT program. The training protocol consisted of three sessions per week on alternate days for 16 weeks, totaling 48 sessions, which had lasted approximately one hour. The exercise intensity was prescribed between 80 and 110% of the first ventilatory threshold (VT1) obtained in CPET. Given that these parameters represent risk markers for cardiovascular events in the population studied, the results suggest that the AAT proposed in this study may be an important therapeutic strategy to be incorporated into cardiac rehabilitation programs.

Aquatic and Land Aerobic Training, Cardiorespiratory and Metabolic Variables in Cardiorespiratory Diseases

Start date: September 2014
Phase: Phase 0
Study type: Interventional

In the pathophysiological process of coronary artery disease (CAD), are present, autonomic dysfunction and reduced functional capacity. Studies showed that physical training (PT) is critical in the treatment of CAD by promoting beneficial effects. Although water based exercises program have been documented in patients with various cardiovascular diseases, the most of studies among patients with CAD used land based exercises programs. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate and compare the effects of aerobic water (WPT) and land (LPT) based PT on autonomic modulation of heart rate (HR), body composition and cardiorespiratory and metabolic variables in patients with CAD. METHODS : 40 men between 50 and 70 years old with CAD diagnosed by coronary angiography showing obstruction greater than 50% and underwent angioplasty will be evaluated in 4 stages; 1) immediately after angioplasty, clinical assessment, body composition analysis and recording of HR and NN intervals during rest. 2) The components of step 1) will be repeated after three month, adding the record of HR and NN before, during and after the Valsalva maneuver, spirometry and cardiopulmonary exercise testing. 3) Volunteers will be randomly divided into two groups, WPT and LPT for 48 sessions. 4) The components of step 2) are repeated after each period of 12 sessions. Thus, it is expected that WPT promote beneficial physiological adaptations in CAD patients with obstruction greater than 50%.

NCT ID: NCT00353795 Completed - Clinical trials for Coronary Artery Disease

Coronary Atherosclerosis Evaluation by Arterial Wall Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

Start date: July 2005
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The overall goal of this study is to use MRI to: - Examine the relationship between known risk factors for cardiovascular disease and coronary artery wall thickness; - Examine the relationship between coronary artery wall thickness and other markers of subclinical coronary atherosclerosis, such as carotid wall thickness and coronary calcium scores; and, - Examine the feasibility of measuring the progression of coronary artery wall thickness over time in a subset of participants.
