Chest Pain

1. Study will be a Non-Randomized clinical trial to check the effects of upper back strengthening and postural correction on pain, functional status and sleep quality in females with costal rib pain in 3rd trimester of pregnancy so that we can devise a treatment protocol for females during pregnancy suffering from costal rib pain. Duration of study was 6 months, Non-probability convenient sampling technique was used, subject following eligibility criteria from Avicenna Hospital were allocated in two groups, baseline assessment was done, Group A participants were given baseline treatment along with upper back strengthening and postural correction exercises, Group B participants were given baseline treatment along with no other specific treatment for 3 weeks. On 6th and 12th day, post intervention assessment was done via, Numeric Pain Rating Scale, Patient Specific Functional Scale and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. 3 sessions per week were given, data was analyzed by using SPSS version 26.

Breaststroke Swimming After Breast Cancer Treatment/Surgery as a Means of Treatment for Seroma,...

LymphedemaSeroma4 more

Following surgery and treatment for breast cancer, many patients experience swelling of lymph nodes (lymphedema) or accumulation of fluid (seroma) that can cause pain, restrict movement, and reduce quality of life. Current treatments include massage, pressure dressings, and drainage, but these are often ineffective and do not last. Physical activity, in particular swimming, has been linked to improvement in lymphedema/seroma symptoms, but more research is required to determine whether or not this type of treatment is effective.

CARE-CP (Testing a Cardiovascular Ambulatory Rapid Evaluation for Patients With Chest Pain)

Chest Pain

The goal of this study is to determine if rapid outpatient evaluation vs hospitalization management is the best strategy (based on patient-centered measures and safe, equitable, and efficient resource use) for evaluating patients with acute chest pain who are at moderate risk for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Patients will be randomized in the Emergency Department to either an outpatient evaluation (CARE-CP) or hospitalization evaluation for their symptoms.

The purpose of the DYNAMITE trial (Dynamic CT stress myocardial perfusion, CT fractional flow reserve (FFR-CT) and coronary CT angiography for optimized treatment strategy in patients with chest pain syndromes) is to determine the ability of combined anatomical and functional cardiac CT imaging to improve morbidity and mortality in patients with suspected or known ischemic heart disease.

Acute Coronary Syndrome

The aim of the current study is to perform a RCT comparing safety and efficiency of a standard care (in-line with current ESC recommendations) to an algorithm that utilize a POC troponin tests for bedside measurement, the instruments could be located in the ED and return results in few minutes.

Addition of FFRct in the Diagnostic Pathway of Patients With Stable Chest Pain

Chest PainEpicardial Plaques

Rationale: Patients with stable chest pain enter a diagnostic pathway where Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA) is often the first line non-invasive test to detect coronary stenosis. An anatomically significant (≥ 50% luminal narrowing) stenosis on CCTA does however not always cause cardiac ischemia (i.e. hemodynamically significant stenosis). CCTA is often followed by invasive coronary angiography (ICA) to assess the hemodynamic significance of the stenosis which is the key determinant to decide on treatment (revascularization by coronary stenting or surgery). CCTA has a very high negative predictive value but the positive predictive value is moderate. Hence, anatomically significant stenoses on CCTA often turn out not to be hemodynamically significant on ICA. Fractional Flow Reserve from coronary computed tomography (FFRct) analysis is a new non-invasive technique that uses the CCTA images as a basis for complex software based calculations and modelling to provide additional functional information based on the anatomical CCTA images. Thus, FFRct is a totally non-invasive method. Adding the FFRct analysis to the anatomical assessment of CCTA is expected to reduce the number of patients being referred to ICA where no signs of hemodynamically significant stenosis are found on ICA.

Improving the Accuracy of Referrals of Patients With Chest Pain

Chest PainAcute Coronary Syndrome3 more

This is a multicenter, prospective, investigator-initiated, randomized controlled trial aiming to reduce the percentage of non-cardiac chest pain (NCCP) patients admitted to the cardiac emergency department (ED) by performing the modified HEART score by emergency medical transport (EMT) personnel.

Chest PainMyocardial Infarction1 more

The goal of this clustered, diagnostic randomized controlled trial is to study a clinical decision rule including a high-sensitive troponin I point of care test in patients with chest pain in primary care. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can unnecessary referrals to secondary care be reduced by the use of a clinical deci-sion rule in patients with new onset, non-traumatic chest pain in primary care? Compared to current daily practice. What is the accuracy (sensitivity, negative prediction value) of the clinical decision rule for excluding ACS and MACE at 6 weeks and 6 months?

Pragmatic Randomised Trial of the ESC 0/1 Versus 0/3 Hour Troponin Pathway

Acute Coronary SyndromeTroponin2 more

The primary objective of this study is to assess the feasibility and impact of implementing the ESC 0-1 hour high sensitive troponin pathway in clinical practice and with specific reference to the 0-3 hour pathway currently in use. The principal outcome measure will be the safety of the 0-1 hour protocol (which is less established and has limited data on safety when implemented in clinical practice)
