Filter by:To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the 2.25 mm XIENCE V® Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System (XIENCE V® EECSS) in improving coronary luminal diameter in subjects with ischemic heart disease due to a maximum of two de novo native coronary artery lesions in small vessels, each in a different epicardial vessel.
The GTX™ Drug Eluting Coronary Stent System is intended for the treatment of patients with a lesion in the coronary artery.
The goal of this research is to determine the utility of Regadenoson (Lexiscan)for use as an imaging agent with cardiac MR. If found useful, it will help us establish a protocol for regadenoson stress MR perfusion (Regadenoson stress test with cardiac MR).The investigators will compare regadenoson with dobutamine so each participant will undergo two studies. A cardiac MR stress test with regadenoson and with dobutamine. The investigators participants will include patients with history of COPD and Asthma, so it will also help us determine feasibility of Regadenoson in these patient's subgroups.
The primary objective of this study is to understand why different people respond differently to the medication Persantine. The effects of Persantine will be evaluated by performing echocardiograms, blood tests and by measuring the flow of blood in the arteries of the heart in patients undergoing a clinically indicated percutaneous coronary intervention.
The purpose of this study is to identify whether exposure to ambient levels of air pollution during normal daily activities has a functional impact on patients with coronary heart disease
Concomitant AF ablation with HIFU in patients with persistent or long standing persistent AF undergoing CABG will be superior in restoring SR, compared with patients with persistent or long standing persistent AF undergoing CABG treated with best medical treatment according to ACC/AHA/ESC 2006 guidelines and no AF ablation.
SRACE is an multicenter observational database of outcomes for patients who are hospitalized with an acute coronary events. SRACE includes over 20 hospitals in Shanghai China that have enrolled a total of more than 3,000 patients since 2005, with an annual enrollment of 500 patients. The major purpose of the SRACE program is to evaluate the prognosis of patients admitted to the hospital due to acute coronary events, comparing different therapeutic strategies, in-hospital transferring system, and so on. All participating physicians receive confidential quarterly reports showing ther outcomes side-by-side with the aggregate outcomes of all participating hospitals.
Coronary flow reserve is an important measure of the integrity of the coronary microcirculation. Moreover, impaired coronary flow reserve is a predictor of future cardiovascular events and poor prognosis in patients after acute myocardial infarction. After acute myocardial infarction, coronary flow reserve remains significantly reduced. A previous randomized, double-blind Placebo-controlled trial (REPAIR-AMI) demonstrated complete normalization of coronary flow reserve after intracoronary application of autologous bone marrow-derived progenitor cells (but no effect in the placebo group) in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction. The current study is planned to extend these findings to patients with Non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction, since these patients have an equally reduced outcome.
This First In Man study is a prospective, multicentre, single blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial of the CINATRA™ ISA 247 Coated Coronary Stent System as compared to the CINATRA™ Coronary Stent System. The study will enroll up to 100 evaluable patients at up to 7 sites. Clinical follow up will occur at 1 month, 6 months, and 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years post procedure. Repeat angiography and IVUS will be performed at the 6 month follow up time point for all subjects.
This study will demonstrate whether patients with prognostically-significant myocardial abnormalities detected with AI-700 contrast ECHO have a rate of cardiac death or MI that is higher than that of patients with normal AI-700 contrast ECHO.
