Filter by:Limited data have been published on the management and outcome of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) that involves the left main (LM) coronary artery. Little is known about different strategies and techniques of percutaneous revascularization and long-term outcomes of these patients. Beside scarcity of data, most studies represent outmoded experience not reflecting contemporary advances in stent technologies, with the introduction of newer generation thinner strut drug eluting stents (DES), bioresorbable polymers, and faster re-endothelization properties promoting vascular healing and endothelial repair. These advances have significantly reduced the rate of ischemic (especially thrombotic) complications in different cohorts. Whether these advances would alter the outcome of PCI that involves the LM in patients with ACS is yet to be explored. II. Objective 1. To explore real-world PCI strategies and techniques in patients with unprotected LM coronary disease presenting with ACS 2. To explore short- and long-term outcomes of patients of ACS with LM intervention III. Study endpoints Primary endpoint Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) at one year; a composite of all-cause mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), or unplanned revascularization* *With further extended yearly follow-up to 5 years Secondary endpoints 1) All-cause death at one year* 2) Non-fatal MI at one year* 3) Any unplanned revascularization at one year* 4) Target vessel revascularization (TVR) at one year* 5) Academic Research Consortium (ARC) definite/probable stent thrombosis at one year* 6) Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 3 or 5 bleeding at one year* 7) Contrast induced nephropathy (CIN) defined as serum creatinine rise >25% or absolute increase >0.5 mg/dL within 72 hours after index PCI 8) Echocardiographic left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)% [Time Frame: from 6 to 12 months after index PCI]* 9) Angiographic (re)stenosis of the LM [Time Frame: from 6 to 12 months after index PCI] (Optional)
Gensini score (GS) provides valuable information on severity and prognosis of coronary artery disease (CAD). We aim to evaluate the relationship between the severity of CAD determined by the GS and short and long term of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
the study is to investigate the relationship of several parameters of complete blood count (CBC) including RDW with N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) in a cohort of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients.
The FAVOR V AMI study is a prospective, multicenter, blinded, randomized, sham-controlled trial comparing the long-term clinical outcomes of the "Functional and Angiography-derived Strain inTegration (FAST)" technique (next-generation quantitative flow ratio [μQFR] and radial wall strain [RWS]) guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) strategy, with standard treatment strategy, in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and multivessel coronary disease (MVD).
In this study we will evaluate the rate of reversal of complete heart block with aminophylline in atropine resistant patients with inferior wall myocardial infarction (MI)
The goal of this pragmatic trial is to test the benefit of using a teleconsultation for referring a patient with a heart attack at an early stage from the suburban hospital to the heart centre. A teleconsultation with an expert cardiologist will be conducted by the physician at a suburban hospital. The main questions it aims to answer are: To what extent does the use of a teleconsultation for a patient with a heart attack work well in lowering the proportion of deaths among patients with heart attacks who will be referred from suburban hospitals to the heart centre? To what extent does the use of a teleconsultation for a patient with a heart attack work well in raising the proportion of stable cases with heart attacks who will be referred from suburban hospitals to the heart centre? Participants will be asked to participate in a teleconsultation referral pathway from the suburban hospital to the heart centre. Researchers will compare the change in the proportion of death rate and survivors or stable cases in the intervention versus the control group during referral from suburban hospital to heart centre. Making use of telehealth and smart applications will positively improve the quality of the provided health service at suburban hospitals where there is a limited number of specialized doctors.
Purpose: To develop a mathematical model for the occurrence of MI in patients with T2D by studying the relationship between the internal personalized biorhythms of the patients and the external transit rhythms of space objects; to develop and implement a personalized method of chrono-prevention of MI in patients with T2D. Obejectives: 1.1 To investigate patterns of the influence of external transit rhythms of space objects on the occurrence of MI in patients with T2D: an observational study using clinical databases. 1.2 To investigate patterns of influence of cyclic activity of helio- and geophysical phenomena in the interplanetary medium on the occurrence of MI in patients with T2D. 2. Develop a mathematical model for predicting the occurrence of MI in patients with T2D, based on the identification of the relationship patterns between the internal personalized biorhythms of these patients and the external transit rhythms of space objects. 3. To investigate the effectiveness of the mathematical model for predicting the occurrence of MI in patients with T2D for the purpose of personalized chrono-prevention: a randomized clinical trial.
In this study we pretend to determine the molecular (miRNAs expression, angiogenic and inflammatory biomarkers) and microcirculatory (assessed by the innovative continuous intracoronary thermodilution technique) effects of PiCSO compared to a standard PCI control group in patients with high-risk anterior STEMI. Then, we aim to assess the efficacy of these molecular biomarkers as prognostic tools. Also, we will evaluate the impact of PiCSO on the coronary microcirculation beyond the acute phase in the follow-up six months after STEMI. Finally, we will assess PiCSO influence on Heart Failure (HF) clinical variables and patients' quality of life including a cost-effectiveness assessment in the mid-term follow-up one year after the STEMI event.
This trial was a prospective, open-label, single-center, randomized trial, To observe the clinical efficacy of extracorporeal cardiac shock wave in the treatment of patients with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and the difference in the level of endothelial progenitor cell-derived miR-140-3p in patients with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury treated with extracorporeal cardiac shock wave and control group and its relationship with clinical efficacy and prognosis. In order to provide a new therapy for patients with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.
the study is to investigate the relationship of several parameters of complete blood count (CBC) including RDW with N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) in a cohort of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients.
