Filter by:[The Purpose of the Clinical Study] The purpose of this randomized comparison study is to compare the 1-stent strategy with a drug-eluting balloon and the 2-stent strategy in patients with non-LM coronary true-bifurcation lesions. [Hypothesis] In this study, the researchers intend to verify the hypothesis that the 1-stent strategy with a drug-eluting balloon is non-inferior to the 2-stent strategy in terms of target lesion failures (cardiac death, target vessel MI, or target vessel revascularization).
In order to perform heart surgery, a machine called cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), or more commonly known as a heart-lung machine, is used to maintain the circulation of oxygenated blood needed by the rest of the body and its organs. Historically, when a patient is connected to CPB, their body is cooled below the normal body temperature. This is known as hypothermia. This is because scientific studies have previously shown that reduced body temperature lowers metabolism and therefore offers more protection to the brain and other organs due to the reduced oxygen requirement. The evidence supporting this practice, however, has been challenged throughout the history of cardiac surgery, with studies supporting that normothermia, or normal body temperature, is a safe alternative. Despite this, the practice of hypothermia has persisted. Published data from a survey of 139 cardiac surgeons in the United Kingdom showed that 84% still routinely employ hypothermic CPB during surgery. To assess whether normothermic or hypothermic CPB is safer, a clinical trial requiring a large sample size and high recruitment rates will be required. Therefore, the investigators aim to assess firstly the feasibility of trial recruitment and allocation adherence in this study. 100 adults across 10 different cardiac surgery centres in the United Kingdom will be recruited to a multicentre feasibility randomised controlled trial comparing normothermia (active comparator) against hypothermia (control comparator) during cardiopulmonary bypass in cardiac surgery. This study will also test the ability of the Cardiothoracic Interdisciplinary Research Network (CIRN), a trainee-led research collaborative, to collect pilot data on Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events (MACCE) using a regulation-approved electronic application HealthBitⓇ. Participants will also be asked to complete quality of life surveys. The results of this study will subsequently inform a large, adequately powered randomised controlled trial for optimal temperature management during CPB.
This study is a multi-center, prospective, registry study. This research was supported by the National Key Research and Development Program. To establish a domestic multi-center, large-scale "brain-heart comorbidity" dynamic database platform including clinical, sample database, image and other multi-dimensional information requirements, through the construction of a multi-center intelligent scientific research integration platform based on artificial intelligence. Any of newly diagnosed cardiovascular related diseases were identified via ICD-10-CM codes: I21, I22, I24 (Ischaemic heart diseases) [i.e., ACS], I46 (cardiac arrest), I48 (Atrial fibrillation/flutter), I50 (Heart failure), I71 (Aortic disease), I60 (subarachnoid hemorrhage), I61 (intracerebral hemorrhage), I63 (Cerebral infarction), I65 (Occlusion and stenosis of precerebral arteries), I66 (Occlusion and stenosis of cerebral arteries), I67.1 (cerebral aneurysm), I67.5 (moyamoya diseases), Q28.2 (Arteriovenous malformation of cerebral vessels). The data is stored on the brain-heart comorbidity warehouse via a physical server at the institution's data centre or a virtual hosted appliance. The brain-heart comorbidity platform comprises of a series of these appliances connected into a multicenter network. This network can broadcast queries to each appliance. Results are subsequently collected and aggregated. Once the data is sent to the network, it is mapped to a standard and controlled set of clinical terminologies and undergoes a data quality assessment including 'data cleaning' that rejects records which do not meet the brain-heart comorbidity quality standards. The brain-heart comorbidity warehouse performs internal and extensive data quality assessment with every refresh based on conformance, completeness, and plausibility (http://10.100.101.65:30080/login).
The MEA cardiology societies have joined forces to tackle the issue by establishing a tangible real-world data registry in every MEA country. This endeavor has resulted in the development of a multicenter registry called MEA-WCVD, which is being sponsored by each national cardiology society from participating countries. All data gathered will be consolidated into a singular registry for thorough analysis. Country specific analysis will be performed.
This study seeks to expand the use of the NYU GeriKit mobile application ("app") in a diverse range of settings to better phenotype older patients, which will enhance both research and patient care.
Multicenter, prospective, non-randomized, post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF) study to confirm and support the clinical safety and performance of Sequent Please Neo to meet EU Medical Device regulation (MDR) requirements in all the consecutive patients treated with Sequent Please Neo.
Heart attacks caused by the complete blockage of a heart artery are treated by opening it with a stent. However, most people will also have 'non-culprit' narrowings found in their other arteries at this time. Although in general people do better if these non-culprit narrowings are also treated with stents if they look severe, this process has problems. This is because narrowings that look severe may be stable and not cause any trouble. For these people a stent is a wasted procedure and unnecessary risk. On the other hand, narrowings that are currently left alone because they appear mild, may progress and cause a heart attack. Participants who have had a heart attack will have a scan from inside the heart arteries during an angiogram (optical coherence tomography, OCT) and a magnetic resonance angiogram (MRA). If the investigators can show that it is possible to accurately predict which non-culprit narrowings are going to progress and which are going to stabilise, medical professionals may be able to better target their treatments after a heart attack.
The objective of this project is to validate, through high-throughput advanced metabolomics techniques, the nutritional assessment tools to be used in the IMPaCT cohort. At the same time, the ability of metabolomics fingerprints of nutritional patterns to discriminate between patients with and without major cardiovascular disease will be identified. Finally, the modification of these predictions will be evaluated based on the genetic profiles. The main hypothesis holds that the integration of metabolomics, genomic and nutritional information will serve to personalize the approach to cardiovascular disease, both in prevention and treatment, and that these tools, in turn, will be valid enough to be applied systematically and efficiently in the IMPaCT cohort.
The NAGOMI COMPLEX PMCF (Post-Market Clinical Follow-up) study has been designed to expand the knowledge about outcomes with the Ultimaster Nagomi™ sirolimus eluting coronary stent system (Ultimaster Nagomi™) in complex PCI subjects. The features for a complex PCI are based upon subgroup analysis of earlier published studies.
The goal of this observational study is to collect safety and performance information in the setting of a large-scale clinical registry. Patients meeting the selection criteria will be included, in chronological order of their implantation. This registry does not require any additional procedures, follow-up interventions, or ionizing radiation for patients. The inclusion period is planned to last 2 years, starting in Q1 2023. The study will be complete when data on all patient's follow-up for one year have been collected.
