Filter by:This prospective randomized clinical trial aims to compare two different "metal-free" strategies for elective percutaneous coronary revascularization: the FFR-guided DCB-only PCI (drug-coated balloon: SeQuent Please™, B Braun Melsungen GmBH) vs. OCT-guided BRS implantation (bioresorbable scaffold: Absorb™, Abbott Vascular).
Comparatively analyze the safety and validity of Amplazter Cardiac Plug (ACP) device-using percutaneous left atrial appendage closure, and the medical treatment with dabigatran plus aspirin or dabigatran plus clopidogrel after 3months triple therapy (Dabigatran plus DAPT (dual-antiplatelet therapy)) in patient with coronary artery disease treated with drug-eluting stent, accompanying atrial fibrillation. Total of 670 patients [left atrial appendage occlusion registry with 100 ACP/ 570 anti-coagulation registry: (285 Dabigatran plus aspirin) and (285 Dabigatran plus clopidogrel) therapy)] will be comparatively analyzed the safety and efficacy. Primary endpoints were a composite of death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, stroke, systemic embolism, and GUSTO bleeding (moderate to severe).
Design: Single center, single-blind randomized controlled trial of patients with high risk native coronary artery lesions (defined as ≥2 contiguous yellow blocks on the block chemogram) requiring clinically indicated percutaneous coronary intervention. Patients will be randomized to either a combined intervention or conventional PCI. Cardiac biomarker measurements will be performed before PCI and 18-24 hours later. Treatment: Combined intervention consisting of pre-PCI intracoronary vasodilator and glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor administration, use of an EPD if technically feasible, and complete coverage of the lipid core plaque, if technically feasible. Control: Conventional PCI. Duration: 30 days follow-up. The primary trial objective is to compare the incidence and size of periprocedural MI, as assessed by the peak post-PCI troponin distribution in the two study groups. The secondary endpoints are: (1) Reduction in the incidence of >3x and >10x upper limit of normal increase in CK-MB. (2) Reduction in the incidence of slow flow/no-reflow post PCI. (3) Lower incidence of major adverse cardiac events, defined as the composite of death, acute coronary syndrome, or coronary revascularization) during 30-day follow-up.
The presence of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) has a high frequency in patients victims of a coronary artery disease (CAD) (myocardial infarction, revascularization). Unlike patients seen in a sleep Laboratory with an impact on daytime functioning, CAD apneic patients do not complain in their daytime functioning. The objective of this study is to explore whether the objective cognitive assessment measures may be a good marker of the efficacy of CPAP treatment given to non-sleepy apneic CAD patients. Coronary patients with an AHI between 15 and 40 / h will be treated (or not) after randomization with CPAP treatment. The expected results are: CPAP apneic coronary patients should have a positive impact on cognitive performance, particularly on attention span and working memory measured by improvement in the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test score (PASAT score).
Drug-coated balloon technology (DCB) has recently attracted considerable interest as a promising alternative treatment option, particularly in the setting of in-stent restenosis (ISR). Optical coherence tomographic finding of restenosis lesions in drug-eluting stents (DESs) after Balloon Angioplasty with Two Different Paclitaxel-Coated Balloons will be compared between two paclitaxel-coated balloon devices; Pantera Lux™ and SeQuent® Please.
The purpose of this study is to compare short-term (6-month Dual Anti Platelet Therapy(DAPT) followed by clopidogrel monotherapy) vs. standard long-term dual antiplatelet strategies (24-month DAPT followed by aspirin monotherapy) on clinically relevant bleeding complications (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium(BARC) type 2, 3, or 5)31 in patients after zotarolimus-eluting stent implantation.
Primary purpose: To evaluate the evolution in time of the antiaggregant platelet effect of sertraline (SSRI) compared to placebo in depressive patients with ACS (Acute Coronary Syndrome) and treated as recommended by a double antiplatelet therapy, aspirin and clopidogrel. Hypothesis: The benefits of SSRIs observed in depressive patients with ACS are related to an antiplatelet effect.
In a prospective international multicenter observational study, 1080 stable chest pain patients (REALITY Advanced registry of CCTA patients) with the suspected chronic coronary syndrome will be enrolled. All of them will undergo computed tomography angiography, CMR and/ or SPECT, and Echo. One of the cohorts will be examined with multimodality invasive imaging including quantitative coronary angiography, FFR, QFR with or without further percutaneous coronary intervention, OCT, and some of them - with IVUS, VH-IVUS. The plaque size and relevant stenosis, a composition of the atherosclerotic lesion, major adverse cardiovascular events (all-cause death, death from cardiac causes, myocardial infarction, or rehospitalization due to unstable or progressive angina, ischemia-driven revascularization) will be judged to be related to either originally treated (culprit) lesions or untreated (non-culprit) lesions. Moreover, the clinical potential of both non-invasive and invasive imaging, as well as anatomical vs functional modalities in two real-world patient flows, will be estimated with the special focus on the natural progression of atherosclerosis, clinical outcomes, and safety (contrast-induced nephropathy, radiocontrast-induced thyroid dysfunction, and radiation dose). The diagnostic accuracy will be analyzed. The follow-up period will achieve 12 months prospectively with collected clinical events and imaging outcomes which will be determined at the baseline and 12-month follow-up. The independent ethics expertise will be provided by the Ural State Medical University (Yekaterinburg, Russia) and Central Clinical Hospital of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Moscow, Russia). The monitoring of the clinical data with imaging as well as further CoreLab expertise (expert-level post-processing multimodal imaging software of Medis Imaging B.V., Leiden, The Netherlands) will be provided by De Haar Research Task Force, Amsterdam-Rotterdam, the Netherlands. FFR-CT is scheduled to be assessed by the ElucidVivo Research Edition software from Elucid Bio, Boston, MA, U.S.A. The REALITY project is a part of the JHWH (Jahweh) International Advanced Cardiovascular Imaging Consortium. The main objective of the Consortium that is uniting international efforts of both Academia and Industry is a synergistic development of the advanced machine-learning imaging software in order to integrate benefits of both non-invasive and invasive imaging providing the daily clinical practice with the robust tool for the anatomical and functional examination of coronary atherosclerosis, PCI-related arterial remodeling, and relevant myocardial function.
The devices used in this observational registry are the Osprey Medical Contrast Monitoring System (CMS) and the Osprey Medical AVERT Reflux Reduction System. Both products have CE Mark designations. The purpose of this registry is to evaluate the usability characteristics of the combined Osprey Medical AVERT System and the Contrast Monitoring System during normal clinical use.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the extent of ischemia and left ventricular function in cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), as well as patency of coronary arteries and grafts in coronary computed tomography angiography at 12 months follow up in patients with advanced coronary artery disease treated with percutaneous coronary intervention with the implantation of bioresorbable scaffolds or coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Additionally, the clinical results of the two methods of revascularization will be carried out annually up to 5 years.
