Filter by:This research aims to determine the effects of reiki and acupressure applied after percutaneous coronary intervention on pain, anxiety and vital signs during femoral catheter extraction.
This is a single-center, double-arm, open-label, randomized feasibility study that will determine whether a novel clinical decision aid accessed via the electronic health record will be acceptable to both cancer survivors and their cardiologists, will favorably impact appropriate medication use and cardiac imaging surveillance, and will improve clinician and patient decision-making, perception, and behavior towards cardioprotective medication usage and cardiovascular disease imaging utilization.
This study is a randomized trial with the objective of comparing the cost-effectiveness of the 2 recommended strategies: CCTA vs functional tests, allowing the evaluation of the quality of life of these patients in relation to the health resources used. In symptomatic patients with an intermediate probability of having stable CAD, i.e., whose pretest or clinical probability does not allow the elimination of the disease, and in patients without anginal symptoms for low levels of exercise who do not respond to medical therapy, in France, the diagnostic care pathways have become mature enough to set up a pragmatic prospective randomized trial with the objective of comparing the cost-effectiveness of the 2 recommended strategies: CCTA vs. Probabilistic medico-economic reasoning makes it possible to establish this two-way hypothesis more easily than in clinical research without the need to impose the superiority of one of the strategies.
REDEEM-CAD is a prospective multi-centre study of CAD risk evaluation and management in cancer survivors 40-70 years with chemotherapy or radiotherapy >5 years ago.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of spinous process balloon dilation catheter (Plastic-Blade) in coronary vascular diseases, which is not inferior to the similar product on the market - coronary spinous process balloon dilation catheter (lacrosse NSE) produced by Goodman Co., Ltd..
There are currently only few data on the coronary artery calcium score in patient with diabetes in France, and the diagnostic and therapeutic attitudes towards a high coronary artery calcium score are not standardized and depend on clinical practices, which may vary from one center to another. The proposed multicenter prospective study would provide a better understanding of the epidemiological particularities of the coronary artery calcium score in French diabetics, refine the indications for better performance of the examination, and compare attitudes when this score is high.
CABG is a difficult and very critical surgery , it is done to revascularize the myocardium in cases of cardiac ischemia . If the myocardium is still viable in selected patients then it is the treatment of choice with outstanding results . Indications of this operation are more than 50% diameter stenosis of the left main coronary artery, more than 70% diameter stenosis in proximal left anterior descending artery (LAD), more than 70% diameter stenosis in three major coronary vessels, ventricular septal defect related to myocardial infarction , papillary muscle rupture , free wall rupture , ventricular pseudoaneurysm , life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias, and cardiogenic shock. Multiple methods have evolved to achieve the best outcome .The revascularization process depend on two main graft either artery or venous , each has its advantage and disadvantage according to their elasticity , ability to deliver an adequate flow and sustain high blood pressure. Our focus is on the different configuration used for the revascularization by using the artery grafts only due to the superiority of the artery graft in comparison to the venous according to the outcomes and not the feasibility of the technique .It is recommended to begin with internal thoracic artery then saphenous vein if both failed then multiple conduits will be used . Bilateral internal thoracic artery grafting can be an optimal option for coronary artery bypass grafting ,but it's the long-term outcome is still under study.There is no accepted configuration of the anastomosis to be used in the multiple conduits .
The DR vs DK trial is designed to elucidate the benefits of Double Rewire crush technique (DR-Crush) over Double Kissing Crush (DK-Crush) technique in patients with Unprotected Left Main Bifurcation lesions (ULMb).
A registry study on drug therapy and clinical outcomes in elderly patients with coronary heart disease
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the dose efficiency of coronary CT angiography (CTA) using a photon counting detector CT (PCD-CT) with the dose efficiency of coronary CT angiography of prior CT generations. 100 patients with a clinical indication for coronary CT angiography will be prospectively enrolled and undergo coronary CTA on a PCD-CT. For comparison, a matched retrospective cohort of 100 patients will be created who had undergone on a prior scanner generation (retrospective cohort).
