Filter by:Prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, open-label trial designed to enroll 139 patients in Japan. All patients will receive a DCS and will be followed for 2 years.
The design and purpose of the current study is to expand and validate previous findings that the IL-1 gene cluster composite genotype patterns potentiate the risk for coronary artery disease (CAD) and cardiovascular events mediated by OxPL and Lp(a). A secondary objective is to validate other, non IL-1 genetic variants associated with CAD.
The NeoVas Bioresorbable Coronary Scaffold Randomized Controlled Trial is a prospective, multi-center, randomized trial. The study compares NeoVas sirolimus-eluting bioresorbable coronary scaffold with XIENCE PRIME Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System (EECSS) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NeoVas in the treatment of patients with de novo coronary lesion.
The NeoVas Bioresorbable Coronary Scaffold Registry Trial is a prospective, multi-center, single arm registry trial based on the NeoVas FIM study which verified the safety and effectiveness of NeoVas initially. This study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of NeoVas sirolimus-eluting bioresorbable coronary scaffold in the treatment of patients with de novo coronary lesion.
UCORBIO enrolls patients who undergo coronary angiography (for any indication). The investigators draw blood at the moment of insertion of the procedural arterial catheter. At the moment of inclusion indication, procedural details, risk factor status, medication use and quality of life (RAND-36 and EuroQoL) is assessed. Patients are then followed-up for the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events for 5 years. During the follow-up period patients receive a questionnaire every year to check for hospital admissions. The questionnaires at two and five years of follow-up are enriched with quality of life questionnaires (RAND-36 and EuroQoL).
The investigators aim at evaluating the long-term (5-year) clinical outcome following Absorb BVS implantation in a real world, all-comers population of consecutive patients, as treated according to the indications, techniques and protocols used in the participating institutions.
For the majority of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) treatment with Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA) provides high initial procedure success. However, the medium to long-term complications range from rather immediate elastic coil or vessel contraction to longer processes like smooth muscle cell proliferation and excessive production of extra cellular matrix, thrombus formation and atherosclerotic changes like restenosis or angiographic re-narrowing. The reported incidence of restenosis after PTCA ranges from 30 to 50%. Such rates of recurrence have serious economic consequences. Bare Metal Stents (BMS), designed to address the limitations of PTCA, reduced the angiographic and clinical restenosis rates in De Novo lesions compared to PTCA alone and decreased the need for CABG. BMS substantially reduced the incidence of abrupt artery closure, but restenosis still occurred in about 20 to 40% of cases, necessitating repeat procedures. The invention of Drug Eluting Stents (DES) significantly improved on the principle of BMS by adding an antiproliferative drug (directly immobilized on the stent surface or released from a polymer matrix), which inhibits neointimal hyperplasia. The introduction of DES greatly reduced the incidence of restenosis and resulted in better safety profile as compared to BMS with systemic drug administration. These advantages and a lower cost compared to surgical interventions has made DES an attractive option to treat coronary artery disease. Therefore this observational registry has been designed for the clinical evaluation of the ORSIRO LESS requiring coronary revascularization with DES. It is designed to investigate and collect clinical evidence for the clinical performance and safety of the Orsiro Drug Eluting Stent System in an all-comers patient population in daily clinical practice.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of a new coronary artery stent for treating blockages in the arteries supplying blood to the heart muscle. The Amaranth FORTITUDE scaffold releases a drug (sirolimus) to reduce the likelihood of the treated blood vessel developing a new blockage. In addition, the scaffold dissolves away over time, leaving no permanent implant after the blood vessel has healed.
Current methods based on traditional Cardiovascular risk factors are not clinically useful for identifying Type 2 Diabetes patients at risk of developing acute Cardiovascular ischemic events (ie.myocardial infarction or stroke). In addition, Cardiovascular ischemic events in Type 2 Diabetes population have worse prognosis than in general population. In fact, there is sufficient experimental evidence indicating that diabetes exaggerates the deleterious effects of ischemic events and worsens their outcome. A prolonged sub-clinical phase exists before a Cardiovascular event occurs in Type 2 Diabetes patients. Therefore, new strategies aimed at identifying those patients with this subclinical Cardiovascular Diabetes and, consequently, more prone to develop Cardiovascular events is a challenge to be met.
The Cardiovascular disease research using Linked Bespoke studies and Electronic Records (CALIBER) e-health database was the data resource for this study. CALIBER links patient records from four different data sources: Clinical Practice Research Database (CPRD), MINAP (Myocardial Ischaemia National Audit Project registry) Hospital Episodes Statistics (HES), the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
