Filter by:The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy of the preconditioned autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells for patients with ischemic heart diseases.
A Phase IIb clinical trial to investigate the safety and efficacy of antiplatelet thrombolysin injection for patients with ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) before receiving PCI therapy, in order to provide evidence for Phase III design.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the plaque morphology in patients with acute STEMI by OCT after aspiration thrombectomy.
This is multicentre, randomised open-label, controlled, parallel-group phase III study. Its aim is to demonstrate that a triple intracoronary infusion of autologous bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells in addition to state of the art treatment is safe and reduces all-cause mortality in patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (≤45%) after successful reperfusion for acute myocardial infarction when compared to a control group of patients undergoing best medical care.
The aims of the present study are to evaluate the information obtained by the EarlySenese monitoring system and examine correlation of the obtained data and clinical events.
Research hypothesis: Is the treatment with renal denervation (RDN) early post ACS safe and effective and does it leads to improved cardiac function and attenuation of pathologic left ventricular remodelling? In a following study, the hypothesis will be tested in a larger ACS population with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) after ACS as the endpoint. Rationale for conducting this study: ACS i.e. ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non- ST-elevation myocardial infarction (non-STEMI) are the most important causes of morbidity and mortality in western societies. Hypertension is a major risk factor for development of ACS and heart failure but it also worsens the prognosis in patients after ACS. Our research highlights the combination therapy of PCI and RDN in an ACS patient population with simultaneous hypertension. Primary objective: The primary objective of this study is to establish safety and efficacy of combined treatment with PCI and renal denervation (RDN) in hypertensive patients with acute coronary syndromes (STEMI and non-STEMI ) having ventricular mass after 4 months as the primary variable. Endpoints: The primary end point is change in left ventricular mass (LVM) at 4 months evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Secondary endpoints:, blood pressure (office and 24-h ABPM), and left ventricular volumes and ejection fraction.
The patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) present high mortality and morbidity rate,even treated with stenting in the blocked heart vessels. The appearance of no-reflow is common after re-opening of the blocked vessel. The no-reflow were commonly attributed to tiny blockage in coronary micro-vasculature by thrombus and spasm of the micro-vessel during stenting. An agent with more effective anti-clotting and micro-vessel dilation would be helpful to solve the issue of no-reflow. Ticagrelor was demonstrated to be a potent platelet inhibitor and a potent micro-vessel dilator which can influence metabolism of adenosine, a endogenous potent small vessel dilator. This study is to test the effectiveness of ticagrelor on improving reperfusion and minimizing the myocardial infarct size after PPCI in patients with AMI.
Rationale: Compared with balloon angioplasty, implantation of bare metal stents (BMS) and drug eluting stents (DES) have shown to reduce repeat target lesion revascularization in primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). However, this did not result in a reduction of mortality or recurrent myocardial infarction. Furthermore, there are concerns of the occurrence of stent thrombosis. The PAPPA-pilot study, evaluating safety and feasibility of using a drug-coated balloon (DCB) only strategy in PPCI, showed good short- and long-term clinical results, with sustained safety and efficacy at 12 months follow-up. To date little is known about the long-term effects of this treatment modality in STEMI. Besides, angiographic follow-up is of great clinical importance by giving insight on the treated infarct lesion and to assess the functional angioplasty result. Objective: This randomized controlled, non-inferiority trial is mainly designed to prospectively assess the safety and efficacy of a CE-marked paclitaxel-eluting balloon only strategy vs. third generation DES in the setting of a ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
1. Ticagrelor inhibits inflammation and improves vascular endothelial cell function to a greater extent than clopidogrel in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI) patients receiving percutaneous coronary intervention. 2. Ticagrelor can reduce the serum levels of inflammatory biomarkers both in coronary and in peripheral venous in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI).
To evaluate the effective and safety of post-dilatation in patients with acute ST segment elevated myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous intervention after thrombus aspiration assessed by optical coherence tomography to examine stent Incomplete apposition and strut coverage in patients treated with drug-eluting stents .
