Filter by:This is a multicenter, prospective trial to measure the test performance characteristics of the Magnetocardiography (MCG) CardioFlux cardiac diagnostic system in detecting clinically significant coronary artery obstruction in patients with symptoms of suspected acute coronary syndrome or who present with a failed stress test with the intention of treat with cardiac catheterization.
This study evaluated the long-term outcome of patients with chronic total occlusion treated with percutaneous coronary intervention, medical treatment or coronary artery bypass grafting.
The X-Pand Registry is intended to facilitate analysis of acute & long-term safety as well as treatment outcomes with DESolve in patients with CAD.
This study is a prospective, randomized, multi-center, open label trial to compare the clinical outcomes and effectiveness of Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) versus Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) guided Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with intermediate coronary artery lesion.
This is a pilot study using a randomized, double blinded, comparison of two iodinated contrast agents used during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). All patients enrolled must have and estimated glomerular filtration [eGFR] < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2. Statistical summaries will be presented to analyse the various laboratory tests for the two groups.
Myocardial damage occurs in up to 40% of cases when sensitive biomarkers are measured after coronary artery stenting. Such events have been associated with poor outcomes both at 30 days and long term. The cause of such damage is multi-factorial and includes distal propagation of atheromatous and thrombotic debris and the subsequent infiltration of the microcirculation with inflammatory cells. Individually or together these events can occlude the micro-circulation and lead impaired blood flow to heart muscle. The vasodilator adenosine is commonly used in cases of impaired flow in an endeavor to improve flow rate and limit myocardial damage. Unfortunately the efficacy of this therapy is limited. More recently, there have been clinical studies looking at the administration of adenosine before any potential damage by ballooning or stenting, in an effort to avoid poor distal flow post procedure and thus limit any myocardial damage. Although small numbers of subjects have been included in these trials, there have been encouraging preliminary data. The aim of this study is to assess whether the use of intra-coronary adenosine given directly into the target coronary artery prior to stenting can reduce the incidence of myonecrosis (heart muscle damage)over placebo. We also aim to assess whether this translates to better outcomes at 30 day follow up.
