NCT ID: NCT04821700 Active, not recruiting - Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trials

Atrial Fibrillation and Carotid Atherosclerosis in Ischemic Stroke Patients-(AFCAS)

AFCAS
Start date: March 20, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

The main aim of the study is to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of ischemic stroke patients with atrial fibrillation and concurrent carotid atherosclerosis. Additionally, this study will investigate the effect of concurrent carotid atherosclerosis on the outcomes of recurrent stroke, myocardial infarction and death during follow-up

NCT ID: NCT04643431 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Carotid Atherosclerosis

Risk Assessment of Carotid Plaques Using 3D Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound

Start date: December 1, 2020
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This is an open-label, non-randomized study conducted at Thomas Jefferson University comparing pressure-gradient estimates (obtained between a carotid plaque and the carotid artery) to imaging and histology markers of plaque vulnerability. There is an inverse relationship between the subharmonic signal magnitude from contrast-enhanced ultrasound microbubbles and ambient pressure. This pressure estimation technique (referred as SHAPE) will be used to estimate the pressure gradient across the carotid plaque cap noninvasively in vivo.

NCT ID: NCT04201132 Active, not recruiting - Carotid Stenosis Clinical Trials

Protection Against Emboli During Carotid Artery Stenting Using the Neuroguard IEP System

PERFORMANCE II
Start date: June 12, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

A prospective, multicenter single-arm, open label study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Neuroguard IEP System for the treatment of carotid artery stenosis in subjects at elevated risk for adverse events following carotid endarterectomy (CEA).

NCT ID: NCT03581162 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Carotid Atherosclerosis

Atherosclerosis in Juvenile Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (ACTID)

ACTID
Start date: January 2012
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This Study investigates presence of preclinical atherosclerosis in patients with Juvenile Mixed Connective Tissue Disease in Norway.

NCT ID: NCT03351127 Active, not recruiting - Healthy Volunteers Clinical Trials

Multicenter Normal Reference Study of Carotid Artery Ultrafast Pulse Wave Velocity (UFPWV)

Start date: October 1, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

To establish the range of BS and ES (m/s) of normal carotid artery by using ultrafast pulse wave velocity (UFPWV), and to explore the influencing factors.

NCT ID: NCT02162550 Active, not recruiting - Type 2 Diabetes Clinical Trials

Effect of Bydureon on Carotid Atherosclerosis Progression in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Start date: June 2014
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Investigators will be determining whether a once weekly injectable medication Bydureon versus placebo is able to reduce the development of atherosclerosis. Investigators are testing the overall hypothesis that 18 months of Bydureon treatment will improve cardiovascular risk factors, endothelial function and retard carotid atherosclerosis plaque progression in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Investigators anticipate these studies will provide novel information about the temporal relationship between Bydureon induced changes in risk factors, endothelial function and atherosclerosis progression.

NCT ID: NCT01597453 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Cardiovascular Disease

NOR-SYS: The Norwegian Stroke in the Young Study

NOR-SYS
Start date: September 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

NOR-SYS is a clinical research program about young ischemic stroke patients from 15 to 60 years. Patients, partners and the couple´s adult children who are at least 18 years old, are all invited to ultrasound examinations due to a standardized protocol. Parents of patients and partners are invited to return their answers of standardized questionnaires about clinical ischemic events such as stroke, angina or myocardial infarction or peripheral artery disease. Study inclusion time of patients and their families is 5 years. A biobank is build from samples from patients, partners and adult children. Clinical follow-ups for patients and partners are planned after 5, 10 and 15 years. Clinical follow-ups for adult children are planned after 10 and 20 years. Hypotheses: What do patients know about their parents clinical ischemic events? How much established pathology in arteries do we find by a standardized ultrasound protocol at the time of ischemic stroke at a young age? Differences concerning risk factors and ultrasound findings between patients and partners? Differences between children from families with several ischemic events among parents and grandparents vs. children from families without ischemic events? Biochemical markers related to ultrasound findings and artery disease.

NCT ID: NCT01445613 Active, not recruiting - Stroke Clinical Trials

Carotid Artery Stenting Outcomes in the Standard Risk Population for Carotid Endarterectomy

CANOPY
Start date: October 2011
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of the CANOPY trial is to assess the continued safety and effectiveness of the RX Acculink Carotid Stent System under commercial use in subjects at standard risk for adverse events from Carotid Endarterectomy (CEA) enrolled by physicians with a range of carotid stenting experience.

NCT ID: NCT01210937 Active, not recruiting - Stroke Clinical Trials

Early Warning and Optimization Strategy in Carotid Endarterectomy

Start date: January 2010
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Carotid endarterectomy has been proven effective in prevention of cerebral vascular events in patients with severe carotid artery stenosis (symptomatic,>50%;asymptomatic,60%). But during the surgery, when the carotid artery is clipping, the patient will have the chance to have hypoperfusion or stroke. Our study is designed to determine how to use TCD to reduce the risk of death and nonfatal stroke in patients .

NCT ID: NCT00711919 Active, not recruiting - Hyperlipidemia Clinical Trials

Pitavastatin on Carotid Intima-media Thickness

PEACE
Start date: July 2007
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study is aimed to analyze the effects of aggressive and conventional lipid lowering therapy with Pravastatin on carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) in patients with hyperlipidemia and abnormal thickening of IMT.
