Filter by:Myocardial injury, as assessed by elevation of cardiac troponins (Tnc), is frequent among patients with COVID-19. Although rare autopsy cases reported COVID-19 related myocardial inflammation, the origin of Tnc elevation is unknown to date. Several cardiac causes, such as myocarditis, non-ischemic myocardial injury (NIMI), or myocardial infarction (MI) may lead to Tnc kinetic. Our work will test the hypothesis that during SARS-Cov2 infection, the elevation of cardiac biomarkers could be linked to the occurrence of myocarditis.
This is the largest study to evaluate incidence and distribution of silent cerebral infarction (SBI) following endovascular repair for disease of the aortic arch. Also, it is the first cohort to include total endovascular arch repair and devices flushed with carbon dioxide (CO2) to prevent gaseous cerebral embolization.
Cardiovascular disease, and in particular ischemic heart disease, is the main cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide today (1). Myocardial infarction (MI) presents the most serious clinical entity through its short-term life threatening involvement. The many advances in the management of IDM during the acute phase, namely the increasingly frequent and effective use of reperfusion means (angioplasty and thrombolysis) as well as pharmacological progress, in particular, the management of anti-thrombotic treatment has enabled a significant reduction in intra-hospital mortality, in the medium and long term (2). In fact, the mortality rate dropped from 25-30% before the creation of the cardiac intensive care units (ICUS) around the 1960s, to around 16% in the 1980s and reaching 4 to 6% today. In the latest data from the French FAST MI 2015 register (French Registry of Acute ST-Elevation or Non-ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction) mortality was 2.8% in hospital (3) and 5.3% at 6 months (4). Nevertheless, mortality rates diverge from one register to another and are generally higher compared to randomized controlled clinical trials. In our country, due to the aging of the Tunisian population (currently the oldest population in Africa), as well as the rise in the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors (5), the incidence of IDM is clearly increasing. However, our local specificities concerning the management of this pathology and the intra-hospital mortality which results from it, remain little described despite the importance of these data in the development of personalized algorithms and the improvement of the quality of this support. the management of CAD ST + in the public sector poses more and more efficiency problems and moves away from international recommendations in our country, an assessment of our national situation is necessary. The objectives of the study are, primary, the incidence of new cases that consult the emergency room for CAD ST + and the treatment delivered to the emergency room, in particular the nature of the treatment for obstruction (primary angioplasty or thrombolysis). Secondary, the evaluation of hospital complications and the future of patients on D30 and after one year from the inclusion's day.
The purpose of the study is to explore safety and efficacy of Salfaprodil administration for patients with acute ischemic stroke within 6 hours of onset.
The goal of the study was to evaluate the effect of single administration of RPH-104 at 80 mg and 160 mg on parameters of systemic inflammation and outcomes of the disease in subjects with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)
The EXAMINATION trial was a superiority trial that compared everolimus-eluting stents (EES) versus bare-metal stents (BMS) in an all-comer ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) population. The patient-oriented endpoint was not superior at 1-year, but it was at 5-year. However, very-long term follow-up is unknown. The study had an independent Clinical event Committee (CEC). All events were adjudicated by an independent clinical committee, according to the Academic Research Consortium 1.
The aim of this study is to investigate whether near-infrared guided percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with acute myocardial infarction provides improved stent strut coverage at six months compared to conventionally angiography guided percutaneous coronary intervention.
This study is a prospective, diagnostic, cohort study within the standard care of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients. It compares the analytical performance of Siemens® point-of-care high sensitive troponin I testing in venous, plasma and capillary sample types. The investigators hypothesize that there is a good correlation between the Siemens® POC HS cTnI assay results for the three sample types and that the bias between different POC sample types reduces from ~10% to ≤ 5% when using heparinized transfer device for the capillary sample.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate early preliminary efficacy of the eMotion intervention in US adults who have experienced a first cardiac event and participating in phase II cardiac rehabilitation. This study will evaluate early efficacy and evaluate the cognitive processes as intervention response variables. Investigators will also examine the relationships between emotion regulation and other cognitive processes and symptoms (threat and stress, cognition and motivation), symptoms [depression, anxiety, pain, sleep, and fatigue]), and health related quality of life among adults enrolled in cardiac rehabilitation after a first cardiac event.
The aim of this study is to explore the overall effectiveness of interventions using mobile health care to improve disease perception, self-efficacy, anxiety, cardio-pulmonary fitness for patients with acute myocardial infarction.
