Filter by:This prospective, observational study evaluates the accuracy of stress testing with the MyoStrain SENC CMR Imaging System to detect myocardial ischemia and viability in patients with suspected coronary artery disease using low levels of stress.
TruePhysioTM Sensor-equipped Ultrathin Pressure Microcatheter (referred to as TruePhysioTM Microcatheter below) is a novel device for evaluating the functional significance of coronary stenosis. This study will compare the differences, if any, between the coronary fractional flow reserve (FFR) measured by the TruePhysioTM Microcatheter and the Pressure Wire.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the relation among cholesterol uptake capacity which measure HDL functionality, neoathrosclerosis and target-lesion revascularization.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of peripheral and respiratory muscle training on respiratory muscle strength, respiratory functions, exercise capacity and quality of life in coronary artery patients with metabolic syndrome. Prospectively, randomly, double-blind, and controlled study. Stable coronary artery patients with metabolic syndrome will be included to the study from the Istanbul University Cardiology Institute clinic. Patients will be randomized into 3 groups; Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) and Peripheral Muscle Training Group (n: 20): 3 days per week for 6 weeks duration. Peripheral Muscle Training will be applied by elastic band and Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation three times per week for 6 weeks.Inspirator Muscle Training (IMT) and peripheral muscle training Group (n: 20): IMT will be applied 7 days per week, twice a day for 15 minutes. The program will continue for 6 weeks duration under weekly control of the investigator. Training intensity will set at 30% of the maximum inspiratory pressure.Peripheral Muscle Training will be applied by elastic band and Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation three times per week for 6 weeks. Peripheral Muscle Training Group (n: 20): Exercise will be applied by elastic band and Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation three times per week for 6 weeks.Parameters will be recorded before and after training. Evaluation parameters:Demographic and anthropometric measurements, respiratory function test,respiratory muscle strength,dyspnea, peripheral muscle strength, 6 minutes walking test, physical activity, quality of life, depression, sleep quality and laboratory evaluation.
Evaluate the prevalence of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) in patients with documented coronary artery disease (CAD) event [acute myocardial infarction (AMI), acute coronary syndrome (ACS), coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)] followed by 100 cardiological centers representative of the whole Italian territory
Study aim : To compare a novel strategy of lesion preparation with noncompliant balloons before implantation of BVS. Hypothesis: Predilatation with non-compliant balloons could facilitate optimal deployment of BVS. By achieving good scaffold apposition a need for post-dilatation could be significantly reduced. This is expected to result in better short- and long-term outcomes.
EUROASPIRE is a multicentre European study in coronary patients and individuals at high risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD), describing their management through lifestyle and use of drug therapies and providing an objective assessment of clinical implementation of current scientific knowledge. Four EUROASPIRE surveys have been carried out by the European Society of Cardiology so far: EUROASPIRE I in 1995-1997 in nine countries, EUROASPIRE II in 1999- 2000 in 15 countries, EUROASPIRE III in 2006-2009 in 22 countries and EUROASPIRE IV in 2012-2015 in 26 countries. The results showed a wide gap between the recommendations and clinical practice with many patients not achieving the lifestyle and medical risk factors goals for CVD prevention. The fifth EUROASPIRE survey is planned for 2016-2018 to determine in hospital coronary patients and apparently healthy individuals in primary care at high risk of developing cardiovascular disease whether the European and national guidelines on cardiovascular disease prevention have been followed and if the practice of preventive cardiology in EUROASPIRE IV has improved by comparison with those centres which took part in EUROASPIRE I, II, III and IV. This survey will also incorporate an assessment of dysglycaemia and kidney function in all patients. The main outcome measures will be the proportions of coronary and high cardiovascular risk patients achieving the lifestyle, risk factor and therapeutic targets for cardiovascular disease prevention. The data collection will be based on a review of patient medical records and a patient interview and examination at least 6 months and at most 3 years after recruiting event. All countries which participated in the first three surveys will be invited to take part in EUROASPIRE V. This fifth survey will give a unique picture of preventive action by cardiologists and primary care physicians looking after patients with coronary disease and individuals at high CVD risk.
This clinical trial will explore the safety and effect of GCSF-mobilized autologous ex vivo selected CD34 cells for the treatment of CMD in adults currently experiencing angina and with no obstructive coronary artery disease. Eligible subjects will receive a single intracoronary infusion of CLBS16.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of coronary stenting with the various types of drug-eluting stents (DES) and to determine clinical device and procedural success during commercial use of DES in the real world. The investigators will compare EES (Xience V/Promus and Xience Prime), SES (Cypher), ZES (Resolute Integrity, Endeavor Resolute, Endeavor), and BES (Biomatrix, Biomatrix Flex, and Nobori).
The primary objective of this study was to investigate whether there is a clinically meaningful effect on QTc change from baseline relative to placebo after administration of 10 mg at steady state in patients with stable CAD (coronary artery disease).
