Filter by:In patients with chronic stable coronary artery disease (CAD), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) targets hemodynamically significant coronary lesions, i.e., those thought to cause inducible ischemia. The hemodynamic severity of a coronary stenosis increases with its tightness and with the myocardial mass of viable myocardium downstream of the stenosis. Compared to the traditional anatomic angiographic approach, assessment of functional relevance by fractional flow reserve (FFR) during coronary angiography has been suggested to improve patient outcomes. Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is based on determination of the coronary perfusion pressure downstream of a stenosis during pharmacologic hyperemia. However, FFR relies on oversimplified physiologic concepts, which limits its usefulness in defining a true ischemic threshold. Furthermore, visual angiographic assessment continues to dominate the treatment decisions for intermediate coronary lesions. Conversely, the intracoronary ECG (icECG) provides an inexpensive, sensitive and direct measure of myocardial ischemia. The icECG is easily acquired by attaching a reusable alligator clamp to a conventional angioplasty guidewire (at one tenth the price of a pressure sensor guidewire). The coronary guide wire positioned downstream of a coronary stenosis then acts as the exploring electrode. During pharmacologic stress, the icECG can provide direct evidence for regional myocardial ischemia to define the ischemic threshold in different types of coronary artery disease.
This study was performed to investigate the anatomical attributes that determine myocardial territory of diagonal branches and to develop a prediction model for clinically relevant branches using myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and coronary CT angiography (CCTA).
The Prospective REgistry of Stable Angina manaGEment and Treatment (PRESAGE) is an observational study on an all-comer stable angina population hospitalised in a highly specialized cardiovascular centre with cardiac surgery facilities. The aim of the study is to assess the clinical characteristics, treatment modalities, early and long-term outcomes in this population.
In a double-blinded randomized clinical trial, all patients undergoing coronary artery catheterization who will met our criteria, will be enrolled into three groups to receive either, vitamin e, n-acetylcysteine, or placebo. The aim of study will be to compare the superiority of vitamin e over n-acetylcysteine for the prevention of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI).
ORBITA-2 is a double blinded randomised placebo-controlled trial comparing the effects of coronary angioplasty versus placebo procedure on symptoms of stable angina without background anti-anginal therapy. Follow-up will be at 12 weeks.
This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of Edoxaban with the combination of edoxaban and antiplatelet in patients with stable CAD (coronary artery stenosis ≥50% on medical treatment or revascularized stable CAD [≥ 12 months for acute coronary syndrome and ≥ 6 months after stable CAD]) and high-risk atrial fibrillation (CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥2).
The current study evaluated prognostic implication of comprehensive physiologic assessment using fractional flow reserve, coronary flow reserve (CFR) and index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR).
Collection of coronary images with a hybrid IVUS OCT system.
Prospective, multi-center observational study to be conducted in up to 30 French interventional cardiology centers. The purpose of this observational study is to capture, in French Centers, clinical data of the BioMatrix Flex™ and BioMatrix NeoFlex™ Drug Eluting Coronary Stents System (Biolimus A9, BA9™-) in normal practice, in patients treated with 6-month DAPT, and to compare the outcomes to those of previous e-biomatrix registries with longer DAPT durations. The patients will be followed up for 2 years for data collection.
Serum uric acid level is a commonly measured biomarker. The association between serum uric acid level and the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases has been observed in some studies, while others showed controversial results. Estimation of this association may help to predict cardiovascular outcomes and may guide new treatment strategies. The hypothesis is that increased serum uric acid level is associated with a range of cardiovascular diseases.
