Filter by:The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the association between brain changes and cognitive deficits in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and whether a low-cost thiamine intervention can be used to reduce post-CABG cognitive issues in CHD subjects.
The ORACLE study is an observational cohort study designed to explore the feasibility of providing an assessment of chest pain for patients with suspected angina within one working day of referral to specialist services. The primary objective is to determine the feasibility of delivering an objective assessment of risk for participants who have been referred by their primary care provider to the rapid access chest pain clinic with possible angina in a community setting using point of care and patient facing technologies within one working day of referral. Participants will complete a digital health questionnaire, at home, that asks about their risk factors for coronary artery disease, past medical history and their symptoms. Patients will then have a standard 12 lead ECG and perform their own personal ECG. They will then have high sensitivity cardiac troponin measured by point of care high sensitivity cardiac troponin assays as well as a core lab assay. The results of all of the above will allow patients to be started as low, intermediate or high risk for future cardiovascular events.
Obesity is classified using body mass index (BMI) (BMI ≥25 overweight, BMI ≥30 obese, BMI ≥40 morbidly obese). Obese patients are Class 1 according to BMI; BMI:30-34.9 and Class 2; BMI: It is classified as 35-39.9. Patients with classes 1 and 2 will be included in the study. Obesity can be accompanied by comorbidities such as atherosclerotic vascular and cardiac pathologies, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes mellitus, so obesity treatment should be managed multidisciplinary. The basic approach to obesity treatment is diet, exercise, medical treatment, treatment of comorbid conditions and surgery. Aerobic exercise therapy, which is one of the conservative approaches in the treatment of obesity, also has an important place in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases associated with obesity. Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (AKD) is one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Negative changes in functional capacity, quality of life and psychosocial situations are observed due to disorders associated with this disease. Physical activity is among the modifiable risk factors in atherosclerotic diseases. However, patients have a fear of movement related to angina-like symptoms, with the thought that the symptoms may recur during exercise. Lack of physical activity due to fear of movement leads to obesity, which in turn leads to aggravation of atherosclerosis and an increase in the incidence of cardiovascular events, which negatively affects individual and psychosocial capacity. Cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) is a non-invasive procedure that evaluates the individual's capacity during dynamic exercise and provides diagnostic and prognostic information. CPET is based on the investigation of the respiratory system, cardiovascular system and cellular response to exercise performed under controlled metabolic conditions. It allows holistic evaluation of the response to exercise, including not only the pulmonary and cardiovascular systems but also the musculoskeletal system. Fear of movement or kinesiophobia; It is defined as a state of fear and avoidance of activity and physical movement resulting from the feeling of sensitivity to painful injury and repeated injury.
The incidence rate and mortality of coronary artery disease are increasing year by year. Exploring non-invasive, accurate, and widely applicable methods to screen and diagnosis is of great significance. New ultrasound techniques, such as non-invasive myocardial work, have been proven to be superior to traditional ultrasound techniques in screening and diagnosis. However, diagnostic analysis based on ultrasound video images is time-consuming and subjective. The progress of artificial intelligence technology in fully automated quantitative evaluation of video images provides the possibility for computer-aided design screening and diagnosis. At present, the application of artificial intelligence in computer-aided design is a cutting-edge issue in the field of cardiovascular disease research. The application of artificial intelligence technology in the construction of computer-aided diagnostic models based on ultrasound video images is still in its early stages.
This placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, Phase 3 study is being conducted in adult participants with high-risk atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) who are not adequately controlled by their maximally tolerated lipid-modifying therapy, to assess the impact of the obicetrapib 10 mg + ezetimibe 10 mg FDC daily on coronary plaque and inflammation characteristics, evaluated using cardiovascular computed tomography angiography (CCTA).
A Prospective, Multicentre, Pilot Study to Evaluate the Safety and Performance of the AdvaPro Sirolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System in Coronary Artery Stenosis in Indian and European Population. To evaluate the performance of AdvaPro Sirolimus Eluting Stent follow up indicated by MACE at 9 months. Of the 120, 40 patients will be assigned to European population and 80 patients will be assigned to Indian population. QCA is applicable for only in sub-strategy participants at baseline and 9 month follow-up visit. A QCA Analysis will be performed on minimum 48 patients in Indian population only. Interval(Days) for patients visit at Day 0, Day 30±6, Day 180±8, Day 270±10 and Day 360±14.
Evidence for the usefulness of the defibrillator in cases of preserved left ventricular ejection fraction and well-tolerated ventricular tachycardia (without cardiocirculatory arrest or syncope) is lacking, as no previous trials have included such patients. Additionally, sudden death in this particular population is low compared to other subgroups of patients with malignant ventricular arrhythmias. On the other hand, numerous recent retrospective data show that ablation of ventricular tachycardia can reduce mortality, and also clearly reduces the number of recurrences in prospective studies. Finally, a very low rate of sudden death was observed in a multicenter European retrospective study that we conducted, including patients with well-tolerated ventricular tachycardia in structural heart disease with minimally impaired ejection fraction and benefiting from ablation without implantation of defibrillator.
This trial adopts a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled, and non-inferiority comparison trial design, and plans to recruit 200 eligible subjects who will be randomly assigned to the experimental group or the control group in a 1:1 ratio. All randomly enrolled subjects will be followed up until 30 days after the surgery.
Phase 2, single-center, randomized, blinded clinical study to assess the safety and efficacy of topical nitroglycerin on ease of TRA during scheduled PCI. We will compare topical nitroglycerin to placebo applied prior to planned, non-urgent PCI to determine if nitroglycerin is associated with decreased number of arterial puncture attempts made, decreased time to radial access, and lower crossover rate to TFA. Subjects will be randomized to receive either topical nitroglycerin ointment or placebo prior to scheduled PCI. There will be 256 subjects enrolled in this study with 1:1 randomization.
The IMAGINATION trial is an investigator-initiated, prospective, single-center study of symptomatic patients with a native chronic total occlusion (CTO) undergoing intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with a drug-coated balloon (DCB). Post-PCI IVUS and fractional flow reserve (FFR) at baseline and at 6-months follow-up will be performed. In addition, patients included in the coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) substudy will undergo photon-counting CCTA at 12-months follow-up. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DCB-only approach in native coronary CTO.
