Filter by:To study the effect of myocardial microcirculation disturbance on coronary flow reserve fraction, compare the evaluation value of IMR, FFR and QCA on myocardial ischemia, and discuss the correlation among them.
The objective of this post-approval study is to confirm that the clinical performance of the Orsiro stent in a real-world setting is similar to the clinical performance observed for Orsiro in the BIOFLOW-V Investigational Device Exemption pivotal trial, as a condition of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval (P170030).
To assess and compare the demographic variables, periodontal parameters, cardiac parameters and the expression of periodontal viruses (CMV, HSV and EBV) and inflammatory biomarkers(PTX-3, TLR-2 & TLR-4) in periodontally healthy and generalized periodontitis patients with and without coronary artery disease(CAD).
The investigators propose a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an anti-proliferative agent paclitaxel in a cholesterol-rich non-protein nanoparticle (Paclitaxel -LDE) in patients with stable coronary disease. Patients with multi-vessels stable coronary disease will be randomized to receive Paclitaxel-LDE IV or placebo-LDE IV each 21 days for 6 weeks. The primary and main secondary endpoints will be analyzed by coronary and aortic CTA, that will be performed 1-4 weeks after randomization and at 3-8 weeks after the last treatment cycle. Patients will undergo clinical and laboratory safety evaluations before each treatment cycle and 3-8 weeks after the last cycle. An algorithm for drug suspension based on clinical and laboratory finding will be followed.
The retrospective study will investigate the clinical performance and long-term safety of scaffold implantation in a real world setting including high volume PCI centers in Italy
Non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), particularly common in women, has been associated with impaired quality of life and risk of recurrent hospitalizations. Several studies have also demonstrated increased risk of incident acute coronary events and mortality. The main objective of the project is to assess the association between coronary artery plaque features by coronary CT angiography and long term prognosis in a large unselected population undergoing CT coronary angiography due to stable angina and suspected myocardial ischemia from the Norwegian Registry for Invasive Cardiology (NORIC) diagnosed with non-obstructive CAD by coronary CT angiography.
RESILIENT is a phase II, multi-center, prospective, pragmatic randomized clinical trial with blinded assessment of the primary endpoint. This study aims to evaluate whether mHealth-CR improves functional capacity in older adults (age ≥65) with IHD compared with standard traditional cardiac rehabilitation care. A total of 400 eligible patients will be randomized in 3:1 manner to mHealth-CR versus usual care for assessment of primary endpoint. Enrollment will occur over approximately 42 months with an expected minimum of 3 months follow-up per participant.
A Pilot Observational Study to evaluate safety and efficacy of the hybrid approach DES/DCB in treating de-novo diffuse lesions
Incidence of ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) is rising and the existing emergency medical aid system for STEMI was not enough for timely perfusion treatment. No existing research with high-quality data focuses on the characteristic of STEMI incidence and regional network construction. Aiming of Guangdong GAMI(reGional network for Acute Myocardial Infarction) project is to establish effective collaborative regional network system for STEMI patients treatment.
After a 30-year decline, heart disease is projected to increase up to 18% by 2030. Participation rates in cardiac rehabilitation remain extremely low and hopeless individuals are less likely to participate. This innovative study has the potential to advance science, improve patient care, and improve patient outcomes by demonstrating the effectiveness of the Heart Up! program to increase physical activity and reduce hopelessness in patients with heart disease. Hopelessness is associated with a 3.4 times increased risk of mortality or nonfatal myocardial infarction in patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD), independent of depression. Hopelessness has been identified in 27-52% of patients with IHD and can persist for up to 12 months after hospital discharge. Hopelessness, a negative outlook and sense of helplessness toward the future, can be a temporary response to an event (state) or a habitual outlook (trait). Hopelessness is associated with decreased physical functioning and lower physical activity (PA) levels in individuals with IHD. While research has investigated strategies to increase PA among IHD patients in general, the study team is the only group to design an intervention to promote PA specifically in hopeless IHD patients. The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to establish the effectiveness of our 6-week mHealth intervention (Heart Up!) to promote increased PA in hopeless patients with IHD. A total of 225 hopeless IHD patients will be enrolled from a large community teaching hospital in the Midwest. Patients will be randomized (75 per group) to one of three groups: 1) motivational social support (MSS) from a nurse, 2) MSS from a nurse with additional significant other support (SOS), or 3) attention control (AC). It is hypothesized that 1) The MSS with SOS group will have the greatest increase in average minutes of moderate to vigorous PA per day at 8 and 24 weeks as compared to the MSS only or AC groups; 2) Greater increase in minutes of moderate to vigorous PA per day will be associated with decreased state hopelessness levels from baseline to weeks 8 and 24; and 3) Increased social support and increased motivation will mediate the effects of Heart Up! on a greater increase in moderate to vigorous PA at 8 and 24 weeks. The findings from this study could transform care for IHD patients who are hopeless by promoting self-management of important PA goals that can contribute to better health outcomes.
