Tabula Rasa HealthCare (TRHC), d/b/a CareKinesis, is the first national pharmacy that provides science-based medication risk identification and mitigation technologies and services. CareKinesis utilizes medication decision support tools and pharmacists certified in geriatrics to provide pharmacy services for various healthcare organizations including PACE organizations (described above). Presently, CareKinesis services more than 35 PACE organizations, including approximately 140 PACE sites, across the country. As a national PACE pharmacy provider since 2011, CareKinesis focuses on improving medication regimens to reduce medication-related risks while enhancing economic, clinical and humanistic outcomes. Pharmacist-led clinical services and medication safety reviews are currently being offered to PACE organizations under the direction of licensed healthcare prescribers by TRHC (CareKinesis). Through mutual data-sharing agreements, patient data will be collected retrospectively for patients satisfying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. TRHC via other programs such as the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Enhanced Medication Therapy Management program with BlueCross BlueShield Northern Plain Alliance and ClearStone, or via collaboration as third party with other health plans can have access to de-identified patient's data. TRHC has also established an agreement with the Watson IBM database to retrieve relevant patients' information for research.
Heart disease is the number one cause of death in the United States, with over 650,000 deaths in 2019 alone. Many healthy individuals possess key risk factors for heart disease which include but are not limited to high blood pressure, high cholesterol, family history of heart disease, and diabetes. The purpose of the Genetesis Accelerated Registry (GEAR) study is to understand the potential for magnetocardiography to be utilized as a diagnostic, screening or surveillance tool for heart disease in healthy and non-healthy volunteers. Magnetocardiography (MCG) is a diagnostic method that analyzes and records the magnetic fields of the heart for the detection of various forms of heart disease. There will be a 12-month duration of the study where we propose to collect screening data from approximately 500 volunteers who present to the Genetesis facility for a 5-minute CardioFlux MCG scan. The volunteers will be contacted at intervals over a 1-year period for follow-up data and may choose whether or not they would like to provide follow-up data or participate in another scan.
Dapagliflozin is one of the SGLT-2 inhibiters. Recent clinical trials have demonstrated that SGLT-2 inhibitors are effective for treating heart failure. The DAPA-HF clinical trial has demonstrated that the effects of empagliflozin and dapagliflozin improve renal outcomes and reduce all-cause and cardiovascular death in patients with HFrEF[1]. However, its effect on myocardial infarction, the most common disease leading to death in the population, has not been evaluated sufficiently. A meta-analysis has demonstrated that compared with the control, SGLT2 inhibitor is associated with a reduction in the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), myocardial infarction, cardiovascular mortality and all-cause mortality[2]. It seems that dapagliflozin might be effective for patients with acute myocardial infarction based on these studies. Thus, this study aims to evaluate the effect of dapagliflozin on short-term prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction compared to placebo. 1.

The aim of the prospective observational DISTEMI-Study in people with and without Diabetes mellitus (DI) after new onset of ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) aged 18-80 years at inclusion into the study is to characterize in detail the clinical, metabolical, immunological and vascular phenotype, investigate the interplay between myocardial remodelling and the metabolic phenotype, monitor the progression of the disease and compare the phenotype of STEMI people with diabetes mellitus to people with prediabetes and glucose tolerant people.
300 STIMI patients with LV systolic dysfunction will be divided into two equal groups (Group I (Study arm, n=150); will receive dapagliflozin plus conventional therapy and group (II) Control arm (n=150); will receive conventional therapy only to detect an improvement in the LVEF by ≥ 5
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is an event of myocardial necrosis caused by myocardial ischemia. Although the incidence and economic burden of AMI has declined in high-income countries, the incidence rate of AMI in China has increased dramatically over the past several decades. Initial medical therapy combined with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is currently the most important advance in restoring coronary perfusion. Timely reperfusion therapy may halt the progress of necrosis and preserve viable tissue; however, it can also induce myocardial injury and cause cardiomyocyte death, a phenomenon called myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI), which can increase final myocardial infarct size by up to 50%. Unfortunately, there is no effective intervention for preventing IRI to date, though an improved understanding of the pathophysiology of IRI has led to the suggestion of several innovative therapeutic strategies with the potential for reducing unintended negative side effects of reperfusion therapy in AMI patients. Whether there is a therapeutic intervention that can effectively and safely reduce myocardial infarct size and cardiac mortality has been intensely explored over the years. Against this backdrop, a phenomenon called remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) has long been discussed as a potential approach to address the above issues. The purpose of present study is to investigate the efficacy of perioperative remote ischemic conditioning delivered at individual timepoints (e.g., pre-, per- and post-PCI) on myocardial injury in patients with AMI.
Results from recent clinical trials on bone marrow mononuclear cell (BM-MNC) transplantation show that this intervention can help reduce the incidence of heart failure (HF) after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, no study has evaluated the effect of the transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on a clinical endpoint such as HF. This single-blinded, randomized, multicenter trial aims to establish whether the intracoronary infusion of umbilical cord-derived Wharton's jelly MSCs (WJ-MSCs) helps prevent HF development after AMI. The study will enroll 240 patients 3 to 7 days following an AMI treated with primary percutaenous coronary intervention (PPCI). Only patients aged below 65 years with impaired LV function (LVEF < 40%) will be included. They will be randomized to receive either a single intracoronary infusion of WJ-MSCs or standard care. The primary outcome of this study is the assessment of HF development during long-term follow-up (four years). Since the efficacy of MSCs is higher than BM-MNCs after AMI in the improvement of LVEF, it would be probable that these cells may have a better clinical effect as well. However, no study has evaluated the impact of the transplantation of MSCs on a clinical endpoint such as HF. This study will help determine whether or not the infusion of intracoronary WJ-MSCs in patients
To explore the protective effect of prostaglandin sodium on coronary microcirculation function and ventricular remodeling after reperfusion treatment of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
The goal of this study is to identify the risk factors for the occurrence of arrythmia in patient with stemi in prehospital management. We included 652 patients who presenting a STEMI from september 2017 to october 2020 and manage by physician in prehospital and bring to CHU of Dijon. We analyse and compare the caracteristics of a group of STEMI patients who presenting an arrythmia to an other groupe of STEMI patient without arrythmia
