Filter by:To validate the prognostic importance of the burden of new-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) complicating acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in a prospectively designed hospital-based registry. To characterize those factors that contribute to the progression of post-MI NOAF burden. To establish a prediction model for the risk stratification of patients with NOAF complicating AMI. To explore the clinical usefulness of NOAF burden in guiding the anticoagulation therapy among patients with post-MI NOAF.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine if there are significant differences with respect to baseline between those randomized to CGo and standard-of-care versus standard-of-care alone after completing 12-weeks of therapy in terms of peripheral endothelial function measured by EndoPAT.
National, multi-center, observational, prospective, and retrospective cohort study. The study does not provide for intervention in routine clinical practice. Key goals: • Obtaining real-world evidence on the diagnosis and treatment of AIM in Russian hospitals, including both long- and short-term findings and outcomes (i.e. during hospitalization, and 6-12 months after the diagnosis establishment). - Evaluation of the applied approaches to the management of AIM patients for compliance with the clinical recommendations across various hospitals, with a breakdown by equipment status; - Assessment of patients' treatment adherence after 6 and 12 months. The expected project duration is 3 years. The study subjects will be recruited during the first 24 months unless the investigators decide to terminate or extend the study period. The period of observation for each patient is 6 to 12 months. The project involves retrospective and prospective collection of information from medical records. All patient data shall be recorded by the Investigator into an approved electronic case report form (eCRF). Recruitment period: 2020-2022. Expected number of subjects: 10,000.
Randomized studies may often be burdened by the selective nature of patient inclusion thus not reflecting real-world outcomes. This is evident from the discrepancy in the mortality rates reported in major randomized trials enrolling patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), as compared with registry data. The primary objective of this observational study is to assess short- and long-term outcomes of unselected, real-world patients presenting with AMI and treated with contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Combination therapy of rosuvastatin 5mg and ezetimibe 10 mg showed similar achievement rate in decreasing LDL cholesterol level by 50% as single use of rosuvastatin 20 mg. This trial aims to prove non-inferiority of concomitant usage of low dose rosuvastatin and ezetimibe among patients with acute myocardial infarction who went through percutaneous coronary intervention at decreasing major adverse cardiac events compared to the efficacy of single use of high dose rosuvastatin.
This study aims to evaluate whether perioperative use of Shenfu Injection, as compared to placebo, could reduce infarct size assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in patients with acute anterior ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Pneumonia is uncommon high among patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), which increases adverse clinical events and prolongs the hospital stay. Inspiratory muscle training (IMT) is able to improve inspiratory muscle strength and prevent pneumonia in patients undergoing cardiac surgery including coronary artery bypass grafting. Thus, the investigators design the study mainly aim to evaluate the 30 days IMT for the change of inspiratory muscle strength, and also to observe its potentially effect on reducing pneumonia, in participants who accepted primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and at a high risk of pneumonia.
To understand the effect of beta blockers on the prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction with preserved ejection fraction.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate analgesic efficacy of inhaled methoxyflurane vs intravenous morphine in patients presenting with acute ST-elevation (STEMI) / non ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS)
Troponin T (TnT) is a part of the troponin protein complex that principally exists in cardiac and skeletal muscle cells and is widely used as diagnostic biomarker for myocardial injury and, thus, myocardial infarction (MI). Elevated TnT levels can, however, be observed in the presence of other clinical conditions such as heart failure, sepsis and kidney failure and the contemporary high-sensitivity TnT test may yield false positive results when performing diagnostics for suspected MI in these patients. Recent data have demonstrated that in the presence of MI, TnT gradually undergoes fragmentation into smaller fragments. It has been suggested that in the presence of e.g. chronic kidney disease or physical exercise the released TnT is predominantly in the form of smaller fragments. However, the clinical significance of TnT fragmentation is unknown and, thus, we sought to investigate the prevalence of fragmentation of TnT in different patient cohorts.
