View clinical trials related to Stable Angina Pectoris.
Filter by:The purpose of this study is to, in patients with stable angina pectoris, assess the additional benefit of PCI on top of optimized medical treatment, physical training and smoking cessation with regard to quality of life, achievement of target of treatment and clinical events such as death, acute myocardial infarction, stroke and revascularization.
Aim of this study is the determination of a valid procedure for ischemia diagnositc in postmenopausal women.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether administration of 150 mg clopidogrel is effective in reducing the one-year incidence of thromboischemic events in patients with high on-clopidogrel platelet reactivity compared to 75 mg clopidogrel after elective percutaneous coronary intervention.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the level of Platelet Inhibition as assessed with five point-of-care platelet function assays correlates with clinical (periprocedural) outcomes such as Acute Myocardial Infarction, death, Target Vessel revascularization and/or stroke in patients undergoing elective PCI.
Non-invasive evaluation of patients with stable angina and unstable coronary syndromes with transthoracic Doppler echocardiography to evaluate presence of significant coronary stenoses. Blinded evaluation and comparison with coronary angiography: presence and location of stenoses, and head to head comparison of clinical value and patient classification.
The purpose of this study is to compare coronary angioplasty with stent implantation with an exercise rehabilitation program in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD).
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the difference in 6-month restenosis rates in coronary artery lesions treated by photopheresis in addition to angioplasty with stent placement, as opposed to no photopheresis after angioplasty and stent placement. Restenosis means the closing up again, or narrowing in diameter, of the previously treated artery, which may cause reduced blood flow and the re-occurrence of symptoms. Photopheresis is a therapeutic technique in which a portion of your white blood cells is collected by a blood separation device and exposed to ultraviolet A light, in combination with the drug 8-MOP (8-methoxypsoralen), then returned to you. The secondary objectives are: 1. To compare the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) between the three treatment groups for 6 months post-angioplasty. MACE events include death (cardiac related), myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft surgery, repeat angioplasty to the target vessel, hospitalization and clinical symptoms. 2. To evaluate the safety of the treatment by comparing the incidence of acute and subacute thrombosis, bleeding and vascular complications and other non-MACE events every 2 weeks for 6 months post-angioplasty between the three treatment groups.
