Filter by:This study aims to demonstrate that the BioFreedom™ Cobalt Chromium Drug Coated Stent is non-inferior to the market authorized BioFreedom™ Stainless Steel Stent with respective to efficacy and shows a similar safety profile.
In patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), 40-60% have multi-vessel disease with an increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Although it is not recommended to revascularize noninfarct lesions during the acute intervention, recent investigations suggest the opposite and show improved outcome after direct revascularization of noninfarct lesions. It is undesirable to risk procedure-related complications by treating noninfarct lesions without impaired flow. It is currently unknown whether pressure guided revascularization of noninfarct lesions in the acute phase improves outcome compared to the current guidelines. The iMODERN trial aims to compare an iFR-guided intervention of noninfarct lesions during the acute intervention with a deferred stress perfusion CMR-guided strategy during the outpatient follow-up, to determine the optimal therapeutic approach for STEMI patients with multivessel lesions.
Long-term beta-blocker therapy has not been investigated in contemporary randomized clinical trials in patients with myocardial infarction and normal heart function. The aim of this study is to determine whether long-term treatment with oral beta-blockade in patients with myocardial infarction and preserved left ventricular systolic ejection fraction reduces the composite of death of any cause or new myocardial infarction..
The purpose of this study is to determine whether providing individuals with personalized information on cellular aging, including telomere length, will stimulate them to adhere to cardiac prevention strategies and improve exercise capacity.
The aim of the Danish Organisation for randomised trials with clinical outcome (SORT OUT) is to compare the safety and efficacy of the ComboTM stent and Orsiro™ stent in the treatment of unselected patients with ischemic heart disease, using registry detection of clinically driven events.
Compare the analytical and clinical performance of hs-cTnI and hs-cTnT assays for the diagnosis of acute myocardial injury and myocardial infarction in patients presenting to the emergency department in whom serial cTnI measurements are obtained on clinical indication.
To confirm the following safety topics in patients to be treated with BRILINTA tablets 60 mg or 90 mg (hereinafter referred to as "BRILINTA") in clinical practice in the post-marketing phase. 1. Profile and incidence of ADRs The CEI will be conducted to collect data of the events, especially focusing on bleeding, dyspnoea and bradyarrhythmia so as to investigate onset, outcome, treatment for the event, and risk factors for these events, etc. 2. Profile and incidence of ADRs not expected from "Precautions for Use" of the ticagrelor JPI 3. Efficacy: Profile and incidence of cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction and non-fatal ischemic stroke) 4. Factors which may affect safety or efficacy of ticagrelor
The Alpha Omega Cohort is a prospective study of 4,837 state-of-the-art drug-treated Dutch patients aged 60-80 years who had a clinically diagnosed myocardial infarction up to 10 years before enrolment. During the first 40 months of follow-up, patients took part in an experimental study of low doses n-3 fatty acids (Alpha Omega Trial, ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00127452). At baseline (2002-2006), data on medical history, medication use, diet, lifestyle and other factors were collected by means of questionnaires. Patients were physically examined by trained research nurses and blood samples were obtained. Follow-up for vital status and cause-specific mortality is ongoing. The trial was approved by a central medical ethics committee (Haga Hospital, The Hague, The Netherlands) and all patients provided written informed consent.
A registry of consecutive patients who were admitted and diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction or acute cerebral infarction were conducted at the Guangdong General Hospital or the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, Yue Bei People's Hospital, China, between January 2000 and December 2016. The adverse clinical outcomes, including all-cause mortality, were followed from the date of admission for acute myocardial infarction or acute cerebral infarction until study end (December 31, 2016). All-cause mortality, including the date of death, was identified from the electronic hospitalization data, phone follow-up, and confirmed by the household registration (HUKOU) system, a record of registration required by law in China. Baseline characteristics, including major treatment of acute myocardial infarction or acute cerebral infarction, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and proteinuria, were collected. Demographic data were determined from the electronic hospitalization data and electronic hospital discharge records. All comorbid conditions were identified using International Statistical Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10), coding algorithms applied to electronic physician claims and electronic hospital discharge records. Life style (smoking), treatment regimen at discharge, including angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI), angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), were determined from the electronic hospitalization data.
Infarct size is a major determinant of prognosis after AMI. Evidence indicates that the combination of intracoronary ischemic conditioning (ICIC) and remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) can significantly reduce infarct size in STEMI patients. Whether the combination of these two interventions may improve clinical outcome after STEMI remains unknown. The objective of the present study is to determine whether combination of ICIC and RIC can improve STEMI patients clinical outcome at 6 months.
