Prediction of AF in ESUS

Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source

The aim of the proposed study is to identify predictors of covert atrial fibrillation (AF) in Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source (ESUS) patients and develop a prognostic score for the identification of covert AF in this population.

Potential Diagnostic and Prognostic Value of microRNAs for the Patients of Acute Coronary Syndrome...

Acute Coronary Syndrome

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential diagnostic and prognosis value of circulating microRNAs compared with cTnI for suspected ACS patients at the emergency department (ED) and intensive care unit (ICU).

OCT-Features in Culprit and Not Culprit Coronary Plaque in ACS Patients

Acute Coronary SyndromeCulprit Plaque1 more

The OCT-FORMIDABLE register will include with a retrospective fashion all consecutive patients that perform OCT on culprit and not culprit plaque in any subset in patients with ACS. Clinical and OCT data will be included in the register according to the dataset.The primary endpoint will be the correlation of OCT characteristics with incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs defined as the composite of death from cardiac causes, non- fatal MI, clinically driven target vessel revascularization (TVR), or re-hospitalization due to unstable or progressive angina according to Braunwald Unstable Angina Classification) and clinical baseline characteristics. In particular subanalysis will be performed in the following subgroups: culprit plaque, not culprit plaque in culprit vessel, not culprit plaque in different vessel. Secondary end-point will be to evaluate how OCT analysis changed interventional cardiology approach in culprit plaque definition and coronary stenting respect the coronary angiography alone.

Assessment and Quantification of Collateral by ASL MRI

Stroke

Collateral circulation supports brain tissues to maintain blood perfusion in cerebral ischemic stroke and are of great benefit for a better outcome. A non-invasive approach relative to currently widely used digital subtraction angiography (DSA) is needed. ASL (arterial spin labeling) is a novel perfusion method without contrast agent injection and features both temporal and cerebral blood flow(CBF) information. The investigators applied multiple post labeled delay(PLD) time to pseudo-continuous Arterial Spin Labeling (3D pCASL) MRI and subtraction images were obtained to evaluate the collateral robustness and quantitatively assess the collateral perfusion in patients with unilateral middle cerebral artery atherosclerotic stenosis and the ability to predict future stroke recurrence.

Prediction of Hypotension During Beach Chair Position Using Pleth Variability Index

Hypotension

The beach chair position for shoulder operation induces hypotension during general anesthesia. Hypotension is induced by decreased preload and contractility due to anesthesia. Masimo is a pulse oximetry which shows pleth variability index noninvasively. The pleth variability may predict the hypotension during beach chair position.

The Findings of Ultrasound Elastography and ARFI in Strokes Patients With Spastic Elbow Flexor

Cerebrovascular Accident

The aim of this study: 1. To evaluate the correlation between the clinic tools and ultrasound elastography/ ARFI imaging in stroke patients. 2. To assess the reliability of elastography/ ARFI imaging in spasticity evaluation of stroke patients.

Metabolic Changes in Patients With Chronic Cardiopulmonary Disease

Heart FailureChronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease2 more

This study aims to evaluate prevalence of sarcopenia and cachexia in patients with chronic cardiopulmonary disease. The investigators will also investigate metabolic disorders like glucose metabolism, presence of metabolic syndrome, body composition and histological changes in skeletal muscle and body fat. Finally, patients will be followed for clinical endpoints.

Heart Failure Recorded in Primary Care, Hospital Admissions and National Mortality Registry

Heart Failure

The main objectives of this study are i) to assess how heart failure was captured accross different linked electronic health record sources within the CALIBER program and the overlap between primary care, hospital admissions and/or the national mortality register, and ii) to assess risk factors, heart failure treatment and survival in patients, stratified by EHR source.

Emergency Department Assessment of Right Ventricular Function and Size in the Post Cardiac Arrest...

Right Ventricular DysfunctionCardiac Arrest

The right side of the heart of often overlooked in patients who are acutely unwell, as the main area of focus when performing echocardiography tends to be the left ventricle. The right ventricle can yield important diagnostic clues that can aid the clinician, particularly in cases where one may suspect elevated right sided pressures, such as those due to a pulmonary embolus. Although it is taught that a dilated right ventricle is associated in patients with pulmonary embolus, but in patients with spontaneous circulation. What is unknown is patients who sustain a cardiac arrest, does the same hold true. There is a paucity of literature surrounding the appearance of the right ventricle in the cardiac arrest patient acutely. This study aims to assess right ventricular size and function in the immediate post cardiac arrest phase.

Aortic Stenosis in Subjects With Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia on Prolonged Treatment...

Aortic StenosisArteriosclerosis2 more

Aortic stenosis (AE) is a disease that has been increasing steadily in recent years in most countries, including Spain.Risk factors for the development of AE include age, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes mellitus and arterial hypertension, the classic risk factors for the development of atherosclerosis. However, lipid-lowering therapy with statins and ezetimibe has not been shown to reduce the risk of long-term progression of AE by unknown mechanisms. All this suggests that subjects with HFhe have a high risk of developing AD, which has not been shown by the high coronary mortality in this population that precedes aortic calcification
