Active clinical trials for "Coronary Artery Disease"

This research add resistance training to patients who undergo cardiac rehabilitation program after coronary bypass surgery, comparing the level of PCSK9 level on that group to another group who receives conventional rehabilitation program (only aerobic exercise)

The principal aim is to assess impact of alveolar recruitment manoeuvres (ARM) on stroke volume variation, evaluated by trans-oesophageal echocardiography (TEE). These variations will be measured on preload dependency or preload independency status. The principal purpose is to determine if variations of stroke volume during standardized ARM can predict the preload dependency status.

The aim of the study is to determine, wheather strict dietary intervention with the use of the DASH diet atop of optimal medical treatment reduces previously diagnosed coronary atherosclerotic lesions assessed witch coronary computed tomography.

To evaluate image quality of coronary CT angiography (cCTA) after sublingual and transdermal administration of Nitroglycerin. Aim of this prospective research study is to investigate equivalence on image quality after sublingual or transdermal Nitroglycerin administration (H0). Furthermore, the feasibility of transdermal Nitroglycerin administration will be evaluated.

Laugh is more than visual and vocal behave, is always followed by a series of physiological changes, including contractions of musculoskeletal system, increase of cardiac frequency by catecholamine release and hyperventilation that promoves the increase of maximum breathing and oxygen saturation. Laugh therapy may be an alternative therapy, simple, and improve the quality of life of individuals can influence physiological and biochemical parameters of the human body.

This proposal seeks to assess the impact of 24 weeks of metformin on non-calcified plaques and calcified plaques assessed by coronary CT angiography, and on whether these changes can be explained by metformin-induced phenotypic and secretory changes of monocytes.

This study evaluates the prognostic value and therapeutic potential of combined pressure and flow measurements when evaluating a coronary artery stenosis. Lesions with intact coronary flow reserve (CFR) despite a reduced fractional flow reserve (FFR) will receive optimal medical therapy. Only lesions with a simultaneous reduction in both CFR and FFR will be treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

The study aim is to assess polyethylene glycol (PEG) coated collagen patch (Hemopatch) on the quality of drainage after surgery, the length of hospital stay, the number of reoperations due to haemorrhage and treatment cost. The study will be conducted in 200 patients undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) with the use of extracorporeal circulation and Internal mammary Artery (IMA) harvesting. Traditional method of haemostasis will be applied in 100 patients and Hemopatch will be additionally used in 100 subjects to prevent haemorrhage after IMA harvesting and sternum closure.

This is a Phase 3, prospective, open-label, international, multicentre study of Flurpiridaz (18F) Injection for PET MPI in patients referred for ICA because of suspected CAD.

This is a randomized trial assessing the impact of allopurinol on endothelial function in optimally treated diabetic patients with coronary artery disease. After initial screening, subjects were randomized to receive either optimal medical therapy (OMT) + allopurinol or OMT alone for 8 weeks. The dose of allopurinol was 300 mg for 4 weeks and 600 mg for 4 weeks with a 4-weekly check on hematology and biochemistry
