Filter by:Background and rationale: In clinical practice, antihypertensives are generally prescribed for use in the morning, whereas some statins are recommended for use in the evening. There is evidence that the reduction in LDL cholesterol achieved with some statins is superior when taken in the night, but it is unclear whether the additional reduction in LDL cholesterol(and the reported improvement in BP control when aspirin is taken in the evening) is offset by a reduction in adherence when taking medication in the evening. Current product labelling recommends night use for simvastatin and does not state a timing preference for aspirin or blood pressure lowering medicines. There is therefore uncertainty concerning the best timing of administration of the polypill. This uncertainty will be addressed by this trial. Trial design: Randomised, open label cross over trial (n=75) of the polypill in the morning compared with the evening administration compared with individual agent administration (acetylsalicylic acid and blood pressure lowering agents in the morning, and statin in the evening) in individuals at high risk of cardiovascular disease. Patients will be recruited to the RHP 2c (acetylsalicylic acid 75mg, simvastatin 40mg, lisinopril 10mg, hydrochlorthiazide 12.5mg), and will be randomly allocated to the sequence of time of administration.
This is a single-arm, prospective, multi-center monitored trial recruiting patients with critical limb ischemia and with one or more lesions in the arteries below the knee. The immediate and long-term (up to 12 months) outcome of the PROMUS ELEMENT Everolimus-Eluting Stent System (Boston Scientific) and the PROMUS ELEMENT PLUS Everolimus-Eluting Stent System (Boston Scientific) will be evaluated. In 2 Belgian centers, 3 German centers and 1 New Zealand center a total of 70 patients will be recruited. Primary endpoint is primary patency at 12 months, defined as absence of restenosis (≥50% stenosis) or occlusion within the originally treated lesion based on angiography.
This is a Belgian prospective multicentre registry to evaluate safety and performance of the Sinus-Superflex-Visual stent (Optimed) in Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA) atherosclerotic lesions. Target number is 500 patients in approximately 11 centres. Patients will be followed for a period of 2 years.
This is a 26-week, prospective double-blind, randomized pilot trial of nebivolol versus an active control, metoprolol succinate, in patients with established lower-extremity peripheral artery disease, hypertension, and at least moderate risk for coronary artery disease.
The purpose of the ESPRIT I Clinical Investigation is to evaluate the safety and performance of the ESPRIT BVS in subjects with symptomatic claudication from occlusive vascular disease of the superficial femoral (SFA) or common or external iliac arteries.
Comparison of two non-invasive methods for measuring tissue oxygenation. One is Transcutaneous Oxygen Pressure (TCPO2) and the other is the new method of Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) - near infrared spectroscopy in patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) undergoing invasive treatment (surgical or endovascular).
Monitoring efficacy and safety aspects of iv. iloprost therapy of patients with critical limb ischemia by recording clinical parameters.
The main purposes of this study are: - to describe the prevalence of peripheral artery disease (including lower extremity artery disease, carotid artery disease, renal artery disease, and abdominal aortic disease) in patients with acute myocardial infarction in comparison to control subject from the general population, - to evaluate the association of peripheral artery disease with glucometabolic status in patients with acute myocardial infarction, - to assess the prevalence of type D personality in patients with acute myocardial infarction com pared to control subjects from the general population, - to examine the prognostic value of peripheral artery disease in patients with acute myocardial infartion, and - to evaluate the prognostic value of type D personality in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
The main purposes of this study are: - to describe the prevalence and degree of reduced left ventricular function and hypertrophy in patients with peripheral arterial disease in comparison to controls from the general population, - to evaluate factors of importance to left ventricular dysfunction and hypertrophy in patients with peripheral arterial disease, and - to assess the impact of cardiac function and left ventricular hypertrophy on long-term prognosis in patients with peripheral artery disease.
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Absolute Pro® Peripheral Self-Expanding Stent System and the Absolute Pro® LL Peripheral Self-Expanding Stent System for the treatment of subjects with atherosclerotic de novo or restenotic lesions in the native superficial femoral artery (SFA) and/or the native proximal popliteal artery (PPA). CAUTION: Absolute Pro® Peripheral Self-Expanding Stent System and the Absolute Pro® LL Peripheral Self-Expanding Stent Systems are investigational devices. Limited by Federal (U.S.) law to investigational use only.
