Filter by:The PROTEUS study is a randomized, cross-over, open-label, pharmacodynamic trial designed to compare the antiplatelet effect of reduced maintenance doses of prasugrel and ticagrelor in stable patients who recently had non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction or unstable angina).
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the result from the a six-leads handheld electrocardiogram (ECG) recorder (KardiaMobile 6L) with those of the standard 12-leads ECG at the patients of acute inferior wall ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), then ultimately reduce the time it takes to perform re-through treatment according to the faster diagnosis. Participants with STEMI who visited the emergency room will be recorded 6-leads ECG using KardiaMobile 6L in addition to the standard 12-lads ECG, which is basically performed for all patients of acute coronary syndrome.
The primary objective of this study is to compare patients eligible for ASS and Ticagrelor against those eligible for ASS and Prasugrel. The available information regarding relative and absolute exclusion criteria outlines reasons for disqualification from either drug. The secondary objectives of the study are to: - Assess the proportion of patients who received ASS and Ticagrelor in the study cohort. - Compare the proportion of patients who received ASS and Ticagrelor against the proportion of patients who qualify for DAPT with ASS and Ticagrelor (eligible group). - Describe the antithrombotic treatment, including antiplatelet monotherapies, and antiplatelet therapies with or without anticoagulation. The investigators will use these objectives to evaluate the effectiveness and appropriateness of the different antiplatelet therapies in the study population. Participants will not be personally identified in any reports or publications resulting from this study.
Prospective trials performed on type 2 diabetes patients without established cardiovascular disease has shown that SGLT2 inhibitors reduce cardiovascular risk. No studies have yet examined the occurrence of cardiovascular disease in patients with acute myocardial infarction. The investigators designed the current study to evaluate the most ideal oral hypoglycemic agent in type 2 diabetes patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for acute myocardial infarction. The investigators hypothesize that the use of SGLT-2 inhibitors will reduce cardiovascular events and modify left ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarctions.
There are limited data on how the guideline indications for ICD implantation are applied in clinical practice across Europe. Moreover, the impact of "time-dependence" of some indications to implantation on the guidelines adherence is still unknown. Objective of the present observational study is the evaluation of the adherence to the scientific guidelines in patients with a time-dependent indication to ICD/CRT-D implantation admitted to an in-hospital cardiac rehabilitation program.
Recent clinical trials have proven the cardiovascular benefits of new medications for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), especially sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors. There are no existing randomized clinical trials evaluating the efficacy and safety of dapagliflozin (nor any other SGLT2-inhibitor) to limit cardiac remodeling in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. Preventing cardiac remodeling, an established predictor of subsequent heart failure (HF) and cardiovascular death, is likely to translate into benefit in reducing clinical events in post-MI patients.
The goal of this observational study is to collect health data on people who are at high risk of having heart complications and are having a surgery that is not on the heart. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is this study feasible in terms of recruiting enough people to participate in this study? - How often do heart complications happen in people who are at high risk of heart complications and are having a surgery that is not on the heart? Participants will have their usual care and will also be asked to: - Have extra bloodwork done - Complete some surveys - Have two echocardiograms (ultrasounds of the heart) - Continue to follow-up with the research team for one year after their surgery Researchers will compare how often heart complications occur in this high risk population to a future study where participants will receive stem cells before their surgery.
This study aims to explore the heart failure risk model based on the dynamic data of patients with different outcome nodes after myocardial infarction to correct the heart failure risk of patients timely.
Non-commercial, multicentre, randomised, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled clinical trial. Eligible patients were randomly assigned (1:1) using a secure, central, interactive, web-based response system, to intervention FCM or placebo arm. Time of observation 12 months [12 main study + 3 years follow up in substudy B]. Primary Study Objective: Primary: Evaluation of the effect of i.v. FCM treatment compared with placebo on the risk of cardiovascular (CV) death, the risk of heart failure events (HFE*) (number of events and time to first event) during the 12-month follow-up and the change in quality of life (QoL) assessed using EQ-5D during the 8-month follow-up in patients with recent AMI and ID (with an implementation of a win ratio approach in a hierarchical descending order). *HFE: unplanned hospitalization for HF (including unplanned visit at emergency department due to HF), ambulatory significant intensification of diuretic therapy (either starting i.v. loop diuretic or more than doubling oral loop diuretic dose or de novo initiation of oral loop diuretic therapy due to HF signs/symptoms).
In this study the investigators aim to examine the role that fibrosis plays in heart conditions such as aortic stenosis , chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity and carcinoid syndrome . Fibrosis is a common final result following any injury to the heart muscle and the investigators aim to identify this process early and in its active state. This will be examined by using a radiotracer 68Ga-FAPI or 18F-AlF-FAPI and PET-MRI or PET-CT.
