Filter by:This study aims to determine the factors affecting exercise adherence in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). For this purpose, the following measurement tools will be used respectively: (1) "Patient Information Form" including sociodemographic characteristics of the patients and medical information related to the disease, (2) the Exercise Adherence Rating Scale (EARS), (3) Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale (ESE) and, (4) Turkish-Health Literacy Survey Europe-Q12 (HLS-EU-19-12Q-TR). Statistical analyses will be carried out by descriptive statistics (number, percentage, mean, standard deviation, etc.), correlation analysis and regression analysis.
The goal of this multi-center observational clinical trial is to investigate the genetic risk factors of patients with premature CAD and none traditional CAD risk factors through a multi-omics approach. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Genetic risk factors & metabolic fingerprints of patients with premature CAD and none traditional CAD risk factors remain unknown. - How to optimize current primary prevention strategy for this rare CAD subgroup？
A prospective, open label, multi-center, single arm, observational study designed to evaluate the acute safety and device performance of the Sapphire 3 0.85, 1.0 and 1.25mm diameter coronary dilatation catheter in predilatation of Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) lesions during percutaneous coronary intervention. One hundred seventy (170) subjects will be enrolled with a target of one hundred fifty-three (153) evaluable subjects by the angiographic core laboratory at up to 15 clinical sites with the Sapphire 3 0.85, 1.0 and 1.25mm diameter PTCA dilatation catheter to pre-dilate CTO lesions in coronary arteries during their index procedure. All subjects will be screened according to the protocol inclusion and exclusion criteria and will be followed through study completion, which is defined as 24-hours post-procedure or hospital discharge, whichever comes first.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if simulator-based training will improve interventional cardiology fellows' skills and will improve patient outcomes. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does this training improve specific operative parameters recorded during initial coronary interventions performed as first operators under senior supervision? - Will major and minor procedural complications be reduced after simulator-based training? Interventional cardiology fellows in their first year of training will be randomized between standard master-apprentice training or simulator-based training before starting their cath lab period. They will be supervised during their cath lab period as first operators by senior interventional cardiologists. During their first 50 procedures performed as supervised first operator, specific procedural data will be collected.
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether a reduced radiation protocol (RRP) in which angiograms are acquired at ultralow radiation doses and then processed using spatiotemporal enhancement software can produce similar quality angiographic images as compared with standard techniques.
This is a randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled, investigator-initiated trial that compares Colchicine 0.5mg/day with placebo, among patients with stable CAD. Subjects will be educated to maintain medication compliance with other prescribed medications.
The progression of cardiac revascularization techniques, starting with standard balloon angioplasty (POBA) and progressing to the creation of drug-coated balloons (DCB) and drug-eluting stents (DES). The study's justification is presented, with a focus on the significance of comprehending the clinical and angiographic outcomes of DCB angioplasty, especially when considering the Bangladeshi population. This study's main goal is to observe the clinical and angiographic outcomes of drug-coated balloon angioplasty after native coronary lesions that have been successfully revascularized. A few specific goals are to evaluate angiographic results (like percentage diameter stenosis, vascular remodelling, restenosis, and thrombosis) after DCB angioplasty and to assess clinical outcomes (like worsening angina, target vessel MI, ischemia-driven TLR, and cardiac mortality). This observational study will take place from January to December 2024 at the Department of Cardiology, National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases. The study population will be individuals who had successful revascularization of native coronary lesions with DCB angioplasty six months before. The study includes non-randomized purposive sampling, and the sample size will be determined by drawing on previous studies. Every patient will receive a thorough clinical assessment that includes a history, physical examination, electrocardiogram, and biochemical testing. The data will be analysed in accordance with the assessment of angiographic outcomes by follow-up angiography. The purpose of this study is to give useful insights into the clinical and angiographic results of DCB angioplasty in Bangladeshi patients with native coronary lesions, including the growing body of knowledge on the efficacy and safety of this therapeutic strategy in specific populations.
Despite the increasing popularity of electronic cigarettes (E-cigarettes), the prognostic impact of switching to E-cigarettes in smokers with coronary artery disease (CAD) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains uncertain.
This study evaluated and compared the prognostic value of different Baseline data and clinical variables to develop a risk ractor ediction model in patients with CHD.
Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) encompass a spectrum of cardiovascular disorders characterized by the sudden onset of myocardial ischemia. They are primarily caused by atherosclerotic plaque rupture or erosion, leading to partial or complete occlusion of the coronary arteries. Among the various coronary arteries affected, left main coronary artery disease (LMCAD) is of particular concern due to its high anatomical significance and potential for adverse outcomes The left main coronary artery (LMCA) is responsible for supplying a substantial portion of the left ventricular myocardium, including the interventricular septum and the anterior and lateral walls. Any obstruction or compromise in blood flow within this critical artery can have severe consequences, including myocardial infarction, heart failure, or even sudden cardiac death. The management of LMCAD associated with ACS represents a significant clinical challenge, necessitating prompt and optimal treatment strategies Among the various coronary arteries affected by atherosclerosis, left main coronary artery disease (LMCAD) holds particular clinical significance due to its anatomical location and the vital role it plays in supplying a substantial portion of the left ventricular myocardium. The left main coronary artery (LMCA) typically bifurcates into the left anterior descending artery (LAD) and the left circumflex artery (LCX), which together provide blood supply to the majority of the left ventricle, including the interventricular septum and the anterior and lateral walls The selection of an appropriate treatment strategy for LMCAD associated with ACS is a complex decision that requires careful consideration of multiple factors, including patient characteristics, coronary anatomy, severity of ischemia, and procedural expertise. The emergence of several clinical trials and observational studies exploring the efficacy and safety of different revascularization strategies has further complicated the decision-making process
