Filter by:The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of listening to the voice recordings of relatives of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who were treated in the coronary intensive care unit on chest pain, anxiety and depression parameters of the patients. Methods In the study, which was conducted as a randomised, controlled, experimental study, voice recordings of the family members of the patients were created and played to the patients through a music pillow. The study was carried out with 60 patients, 30 experimental and 30 control groups. Three tests were applied to the patients 15 minutes before, 15 and 30 minutes after the application. The data of the study were collected using the "Patient Introduction Form", "Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale", "Visual Analogue Scale" and "Patient Follow-up Form".
The goal of this observational study is to define the incidence of heart failure (HF) after acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The main question it aims to answer is: • To define HF incidence in the medium and long-term in the context of public healthcare coverage ensuring universal access to early coronary revascularization after ACS and extended neurohormonal treatment. Analyses will cover the entire population of Catalonia (North-Eastern region of Spain, N = 7.860.563 in 2020). Researchers will compare HF incidence rate according to relevant subgroup characteristics including event type, age groups or sex, inter alia.
Elderly patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) face a high risk of both ischemic and hemorrhagic complications necessitating antiplatelet therapy. Previous data indicate that even at a dose of 20-30 mg/day, aspirin (ASA) allows almost complete inhibition of thromboxane (TX) A2 biosynthesis in healthy volunteers. However, ASA at a dose of 30 mg/day has not been evaluated in the acute phase of myocardial infarction or among elderly patients, where it may achieve an optimal balance between bleeding risk and ischemic complications. This randomized study will include 40 patients over 65 years undergoing PCI for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). It compares a new dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) strategy consisting of a P2Y12 antagonist (ticagrelor) and ASA at a very low dose of 30 mg/day (n=20) against the current standard treatment (P2Y12 antagonist and ASA at a dose of 75 mg) (n=20) in the control group.
Participants are being recruited at the inpatient department of the National Medical Research Center of Cardiology on a 'all-comers' basis. The enrolled participants will be divided into the main group (diagnosed with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD)) and control (not diagnosed with ASCVD). The participants will have whole blood and serum collected at enrollment for further biobanking. A genome-wide association study will be carried out to determine the genetic determinants associated with atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, acute coronary syndrome, etc., including a search for pathogenic variants.
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether a reduced radiation protocol (RRP) in which angiograms are acquired at ultralow radiation doses and then processed using spatiotemporal enhancement software can produce similar quality angiographic images as compared with standard techniques.
The Registry of Acute Myocardial Infarction (RAMI) aims at regular and centralized acquiring and processing standard information about verified and suspected cases of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), monitoring of AMI cases, and establishing AMI diagnosis based on standard diagnostic criteria by doctors involved in the registry. The RAMI obtains data from all medical institutions, which could potentially document any cases of suspected AMI.
The goal of this study is to determine the effect of the ENHANCE intervention in improving clinical outcomes and evaluating the effects of the intervention on implementation processes and outcomes. The specific questions it aims to answer are: 1. To test and estimate the effect of the intervention in people with MLTCs attending PHCs on: i. Detection of, and initiation of treatment for, additional chronic conditions ii. Treatment intensification and changes in medication iii. Control of chronic conditions iv. patient reported health-related quality of life and functioning v. health care utilisation and adherence vi. costs of health care 2. To use the RE-AIM framework to assess implementation processes and outcomes through measurements of reach, adoption, implementation, and maintenance. 3. To understand implementation processes and outcomes within the wider context of primary healthcare, provide explanations for the observed effects of the clinical findings and identify recommendations for wider implementation of the ENHANCE intervention. The participants in the control group will receive usual care at their primary health care facility, which includes the use of the Practical Approach to Care Kit (PACK) or Adult Primary Care (APC) clinical decision support tool. Participants in the intervention group will receive care for their multiple chronic condition by a clinician trained to use the ENHANCE clinical decision support tool (intervention tool), and receive two CHW visits in their home to provide treatment literacy and adherence support.
The goal of this observational and prospective study is to investigate changes in physical performance, lung function, and respiratory and peripheral muscle strength in patients during the postoperative period following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and valve replacement surgery..
Role of sglt2I in diabetic patients with myocardial infarction
Investigators are building an empirical evidence base for real world data through large-scale replication of randomized controlled trials. The investigators' goal is to understand for what types of clinical questions real world data analyses can be conducted with confidence and how to implement such studies.
