Multi-slice CT Coronary Angiography in Patients With Stable Angina
Chronic Stable Anginaearly identification of vulnerable plaques by remodeling index prior to rupture and development of acute event is of considerable importance especially by a reliable non-invasive method as CT coronary angiography.
Assessment of Diagonal Branch Territory
Stable AnginaUnstable AnginaThis 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).
Symptomatic Trial of Angina Assessment Prior to Revascularization
Coronary Artery DiseaseAngina1 moreThe principal objective of this research is to determine whether symptoms, induced by confirmed experimental ischaemia, can help us predict which patients will respond to PCI.
CI-AKI in Patients With Stable CAD and Comorbidities. Are we Doing Better?
Stable AnginaAcute Kidney Injury1 morePatients aged 18-89 with stable CAD and comorbidities receiving optimal medical treatment requiring PCI with iodinated contrast media. The aim of the study is to assess the prevalence of contrast-induced AKI in 2012-2013 and 2017 cohorts and to evaluate the potential risk factors of CI-AKI to better guide the prevention in patients of higher risk.
Restore EF Observational Study
Coronary Artery DiseaseUnstable Angina3 moreA multi-center, prospective, observational, non-interventional single arm, study of the intermediate-term clinical outcomes collected from electronic health records of high-risk patients which have previously undergone standard of care prophylactic Impella support for a non-emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
The Heat Transport Characteristics of the Heart and Lung Meridians: A Study of CSAP Patients and...
Chronic Stable Angina PectorisAlthough some important progresses were made in the field of the meridian research, no breakthroughs have been achieved. Besides,there are some problems in meridian researches. Particularly, previous research of meridian phenomena involved lots of subjective elements and outcomes.Researches that use modern scientific techniques to investigate the biological characteristics of meridian phenomenon are urgently needed. Therefore, this study is designed to assess the heat transport characteristics of the Heart and Lung meridians by infrared thermal imaging (ITI). Thus, the biological characteristics of meridian phenomena could be presented objectively in a scientific methodology
Safety and Effectiveness Evaluation of COBRA PzF Coronary Stent System: A Post Marketing Observational...
Stable AnginaUnstable Angina4 moreA multi-center, prospective, consecutive enrolled, observational registry. The population being studied includes all patients undergoing treatment of "de novo" lesions in native coronary vessels, saphenous vein graft and/or arterial bypass conduits with the COBRA PzF coronary stent system. The registry will primarily assess the rate of MACE (cardiac death, myocardial infarction and clinically driven target lesion revascularization.
United Coronary Biobanks
Coronary Artery DiseaseAcute Coronary Syndrome2 moreThe UNICORN consists of two collaborating biobanks, one in Utrecht and one in Singapore. From these two sites we include all patients who undergo a coronary catheterization for any reason. At the moment of catheterization we draw blood, which will be stored in a biobank and we collect clinical characteristics. Patients are followed-up for 5 years for the occurrence of major cardiovascular events. By including from two sites in the world we include 4 major ethnic groups: Caucasians, Chinese, Indians and Malays. We aim at including at least 2000 patients per ethnic group. Our hypothesis is that there are differences in the risk factor burden, clinical presentation of CAD, and biochemical patterns in the blood among the ethnic groups. Furthermore, this biobank offers a platform for multi-ethnic biomarker discovery.
Hemodynamics During the Soccer Championship 2012
Severe CardiomyopathyAngina4 moreThe purpose of this study is to determine in soccer fans whether and to which extend positive or negative emotions during the European soccer Championship affects Central Hemodynamics, Arterial Stiffness, Heartrate and Endothelial Dysfunktion.
Diagnostic Value of Electrocardiographic St-t Wave Changes in Patients With Chronic Stable Angina...
Ekg Change Ischemia LateralThe electrocardiogram (ECG) is a simple and non-invasive bedside diagnostic tool with a well-established role in the diagnosis of (CAD). Many studies have found that the admission of ECG provides important prognostic information in patients admitted with chest pain. For instance, T wave inversion in anterior or inferior location and or ST-segment depression has been associated with high incidence of CAD.
