View clinical trials related to Myocardial Infarction.
Filter by:Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome associated with de novo atrial fibrillation are randomized to benefit from either a conventional therapy associating dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) and anticoagulant or DAPT and an implantable monitoring device with a follow-up by telecardiology
The overall aim of the study is to evaluate if remote video exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation (exCR), offered as an alternative to centre-based exCR, can increase participation in exCR sessions post myocardial infarction (MI).
There is no up-to-date information regarding presentation, management and clinical course of patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) in Turkey. TURKMI registry is designed to provide insight to the characteristics, management from symptom onset to the hospital discharge and outcome of patients with acute MI in Turkey.
The study intends to provide important data on whether the noval method using quantitative flow ratio could predict microvascular dysfunction.
In this project the investigator's plan to collect blood during a patient's routine angiogram procedure which they will have due to having suffered a heart attack. Data from the patients' routine procedures for this condition, including but not exclusively, ECG, Echocardiogram, MRI scans, will be collected. The aim of the research project is to analyse the blood samples and identify novel biomarkers and clinical parameters associated with acute coronary syndromes. The investigator's will particularly focus on markers of inflammation and micro-organism activity. The investigator's hope that this will help to gain more knowledge about what causes heart disease and how various conditions can be treated more efficiently. The investigator's will follow-up and collect further research data via a questionnaire at the routine 6 weeks and 6 months follow-up appointment after the angiogram procedure. Participants will also be telephoned at one-year post procedure, to update any events and medication status and data will thereafter be collected form data held by the hospital without having to contact the participant. Remaining blood samples will be stored securely for further analysis into blood and other markers.
This study will assess the safety and feasibility of sonothrombolysis in the acute management of STEMI undergoing reperfusion therapy with systemic fibrinolysis as part of a pharmacoinvasive approach
To analyze whether the location of myocardial infarction and infarct related artery are related to FWR.
This is a prospective, multicenter, open-label, randomized, controlled, parallel group study, in which ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) patients with high thrombus burden(TIMI thrombus grade ≥3) are included. Patients are randomized to be treated with or without manual thrombus aspiration(TA) during primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PPCI) by a ratio of 1:1.
Cerebral Vascular Accidents (stroke) and Myocardial Infarction (MI), which share the same risk factors, treatments and pathophysiological mechanisms, have become two major public health problems due to the increase in their prevalence rate and the longer survival after such an event in developed countries. International data, including French data and data from our own registries, illustrate that: - risk factors that are common, mainly hypertension, smoking, high cholesterol or diabetes, remain insufficiently controlled, although they are easily detectable and treatable; - the incidence rate of stroke has doubled in 20 years in people under 55 years of age, increasing the number of people with chronic disabilities; - 1-month and 1-year mortality rates for stroke and MIs have decreased by 17% in 5 years, increasing the number of survivors but with chronic disabilities; - the aging of the population and the arrival of the baby boomers of the 1950s in the at-risk age groups has increased the at-risk population; - Stroke and MI recurrence rates reached a threshold of 6% / year, in contrast to the very high rates of re-hospitalization at 1 year: 30% post-stroke and 20% post-MI, due to poorly anticipated and controlled complications. These reasons explain the lack of significant progress in preventing recurrences, preventable complications (heart failure and arrhythmias after MI; falls, sphincter and swallowing disorders, dementia and arrhythmias after stroke) and re-admission. This observation is aggravated by problems of medical demography and therefore the availability of neurologists, cardiologists and general practitioners. Local and foreign experiments have demonstrated the value of intensive, coordinated and multi-professional stroke and MI monitoring, including nurses, in terms of: better control of risk factors and reduction of the rate of re-hospitalization by recurrence in stroke follow-up; improvement of the patient's general condition, control of risk factors, reduction in the number of events, decrease in the number of re-hospitalizations and their duration in MI follow-up. The value of pharmacists' additional intervention in intensive post-MI follow-up compared to routine follow-up has also been demonstrated, particularly in terms of significant improvement in patient compliance. The hypothesis is that 2 years of intensive follow-up for both post-stroke or post-MI patients, by trained hospital and liberal nurses, in conjunction with doctors and pharmacists, is of medico-economic interest compared to usual follow-up. Therefore a medico-economic evaluation was designed to evaluate the efficiency of this model, which combines community-based and recourse care, prevention and coordination of care compared to usual follow-up.
Patient with myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries and takotsubo syndrome often have high levels of stress and anxiety. At present there are no treatment alternatives in this group of patients. Previously, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), primarily aiming at relieving stress, has been shown to decrease morbidity in patient with myocardial infarction with obstructive coronary arteries. The present open randomized study aims to decrease stress and anxiety in patients with myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries and takotsubo syndrome by an internet-based CBT focusing on stress and anxiety.
