Filter by:This study evaluates the benefit of colchicine on induced denervation after myocardial infarction. Patients who have suffered a documented De Novo myocardial infarction and completed a revascularization procedure will receive either colchicine on top of standard therapy, compared to standard therapy alone (1:1 allocation ratio). Colchicine 1mg (or 0.5mg) will be initiated within 48h after percutaneous revascularization and prescribed for one month.
The PICSO ViPER study is a prospective single centre cohort study of the use of PICSO in patients presenting acute myocardial infarction and impaired function of the left ventricle and candidate to angioplasty the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery. The percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedure will be undertaken in a standard fashion, in accordance with the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust (OUHT) departmental guidelines for PCI, and includes the use of pressure wire measurements before and after stent deployment. PICSO treatment will be added on top of the conventional treatment. The protocol will constitute of 5 main stages (that will all be performed during index angioplasty procedure). The protocol is complete at the end of the angioplasty procedure, and the patient will exit the study at this point. The five stages of the protocol are described below (for details see "Detailed Description"): - Baseline - PICSO treatment during pre-dilation - Stenting with PICSO support - Post-stent Physiology - PICSO treatment during post-dilation
The aim of the study is to show that an ambulatory ECG telemetry monitoring of some patients hospitalized for cerebral infarction increases the frequency of the diagnosis of atrial fibrillation, cause of their stroke, and reinforces the protection against recurrences.
It is now recognized that iron deficiency in cardiovascular disease contributes to impaired clinical outcome.
The purpose of this study is to examine the degree to which pulmonary embolism (clot) can be dissolved when treated with a very low dose of a systemic thrombolytic drug (clot buster) along with standard anticoagulant therapy as compared to the standard of care anticoagulant therapy alone.
The management of patients with ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack is based on the preservation of a brain area by maintaining sufficient intracranial hemodynamics (IH) and with rapid recanalization. The impact of the patient's position (supine or seated position) on the IH in the event of narrowing or occlusion of an artery is poorly assessed but may be of particular importance. Variations in blood flow according to the positioning of the patient's body are measurable using a transcranial Doppler. The main objective is to verify whether intracerebral hemodynamic changes during early verticalization after ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack are more frequent in patients with carotid stenosis or occlusion compared to those without stenosis or occlusion.
The objectives of this study are to observe and examine prospectively whether excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) and percutaneous coronary intervention with biodegradable-polymer platinum chromium everolimus-eluting stent may improve the myocardial salvage in the patients with anterior ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) using the myocardial scintigram (acute-phase I123-BMIPP and chronic-phase 99mTc-tetrofosmin), and to clarify the myocardial protective effect of excimer laser in the patients with anterior STEMI.
The study is about exploring physiological angiogenesis linked to tissue repair in patients with acute heart infarction or chronic heart ischemia by means of 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD PET/CT imaging.
The aim of the registry is to investigate the clinical performance of the Magmaris Magnesium Stent in STE-ACS and NSTE-ACS patients.
Myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries" (MINOCA) occurs in 5-10% of all patients with AMI. There are neither any randomized clinical trials in MINOCA patients evaluating effects of secondary preventive treatments proven beneficial in patients with classic AMI, nor any treatment guidelines. The primary objective of this multi-national, multi-center pragmatic randomized clinical trial is to determine whether oral beta-blockade compared to no oral beta-blockade, and whether Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors (ACEI/ Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (ARB) compared to no ACEI/ARB, reduce the composite endpoint of death of any cause and readmission because of AMI, ischemic stroke or heart failure in patients discharged with myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (MINOCA) and with no clinical signs of heart failure and with left ventricular (LV) systolic ejection fraction ≥40%.
