A Study to Assess the Accuracy of Magnetocardiography (MCG) to Diagnose True Ischemia in Patients...

Chest PainEmergency Medicine

The purpose of the research is to see if patients that come to the Emergency Department with chest pain can be more accurately and more quickly diagnosed by magnetocardiography (MCG) to see if their chest pain is caused by coronary ischemia (reduced blood flow to the heart) in patients with normal or have non-specific changes on the ECG vs other causes by other reasons.

Low-Risk Chest Pain Echo Study

Chest Pain

Pilot study to assess if a bedside point-of-care echocardiogram performed on emergency department patients identified as low-risk chest pain prior to discharge significantly changes patient disposition or follow up instructions.

Autonomic Monitoring in Neurocardiogenic Syncope

SyncopeChest Pain1 more

This is a prospective observational pilot study of suitability of autonomic monitoring via the VU-AMS device for prediction of neurocardiogenic syncope (NCS) in children referred to cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) for a diagnosis of syncope. The study population is children referred for CPET to evaluate for neurocardiogenic syncope. The purpose is to describe autonomic function during rest and exercise and determine the positive predictive value of autonomic function measurements against the gold standard for diagnosis of neurocardiogenic syncope, the CPET. Children presenting for CPET with chest pain or who are status post orthotopic heart transplantation will serve as positive and negative controls respectively.

Echocardiography by Non-cardiologist in Early Management of Patients With Chest Pain

CardiologyAcute Coronary Syndrome1 more

The aim of the study is to find out the benefit of echocardiography, which is performed by a physican without a cardiological or radiological specialty. In this case the echocardiography is used in the first contact with a patient with chest pain of unclear etiology. Possible benefit is rapid risk stratification of acute non-stemi coronary syndromes and differentiation from other serious conditions, such as pulmonary embolism or aortic dissection.

Magnetocardiography in the Accurate Identification of Myocardial Infarction

Chest PainAcute Coronary Syndrome1 more

Magnetocardiography (MCG) is a promising noninvasive and accurate method for detecting myocardial infarction. Although progress has been made in this area, there is a lack of studies using up-to-date examination instruments for the calibration of MCG analysis. This is a prospective single-center study aiming to build accurate analytical models of MCG to detect myocardial infarction. Myocardial infarction are diagnosed by electrocardiogram, biomarkers (high-sensitivity cardiac troponin, etc), or non-invasive imaging (cardiac magnetic resonance or single-photon-emission tomography). Myocardial infarction is also quantified by cardiac magnetic resonance or single-photon-emission tomography. Healthy volunteers and chest pain patients who will receive electrocardiogram, biomarkers (high-sensitivity cardiac troponin, etc), or non-invasive imaging (cardiac magnetic resonance or single-photon-emission tomography) examination will be enrolled in this study.

Validation of PMcardio AI-assisted Clinical Assistant in Primary Care

Cardiovascular DiseasesMedical Device7 more

This study aimed to analyze and investigate whether the use of the PMcardio clinical assistant leads to a more efficient patient management in primary care and more accessible specialised care compared to usual standards of care and to assess the reliability and safety of the PMcardio smartphone application in the primary care use environment. Additionally, to evaluate time savings and cost saving implications of increased availability of specialised care at the primary care level.

Study of Hesperidin Therapy on COVID-19 Symptoms (HESPERIDIN)

Covid19Anosmia19 more

The main aim of this study is to determine the effects of short-term treatment with hesperidin on COVID-19 symptoms in comparison with a placebo. Treatment effects will be observed through a symptoms diary that will be completed by participants throughout the study and by taking the oral temperature daily.

Randomized Evaluation of Patients With Stable Angina Comparing Diagnostic Examinations

Chest PainStable Angina Pectoris3 more

This randomized, controlled, diagnostic, multicenter trial will compare two diagnostic imaging pathways--coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and single photon emission tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI)--to determine the incidence of major adverse coronary events (MACE), defined as myocardial infarction (MI) or cardiac-related death, and cross-over to revascularization. CCTA may be used to direct patients with symptoms of stable angina or angina equivalent to optimal medical therapy (OMT). The use of CCTA as a diagnostic tool for angina symptoms will be associated with no increase in MACE or revascularization, decreased cost, reduced risks (e.g., less radiation exposure), additional insights into alternate explanations of chest pain, and increased cost-effectiveness in comparison with use of SPECT MPI/invasive coronary angiography (ICA).

Acute Chest Pain Treatment and Evaluation (ACTION) Study

Chest Pain

Objective To compare the incidence of adverse cardiac events among the patients discharged after evaluation through ACTION protocol with those through conventional protocol. The adverse cardiac events for the follow-up are defined as any of the followings: Cardiac related death Ventricular fibrillation Myocardial infarction Cardiogenic shock requiring the inta-aortic balloon pump circulatory assistance Acute pulmonary oedema requiring endo-tracheal intubation To study the sensitivity / predictive values of the various components of ACTION :12 lead ECG ST monitoring , serial serum markers for myocardial necrosis (myoglobin, CKMB, TnT, graded exercise testing, stress tetrofosmin scan/ stress echocardiography) in predicting adverse cardiac events. Design -prospective randomised clinical trial Participants -patients above 25 years of age presenting to the ED with chest pain consistent with myocardial ischaemia but with a 12 lead ECG non-diagnostic of myocardial ischaemia . Intervention Patients were monitored continuously with a 12 lead ECG and ST segment trend monitoring and blood will be drawn at 0,3,6 hours after arrival at ED for serial myoglobin, creatine kinase MB isoenzyme (CKMB) and Troponin T (TnT) . Patients who have ECG and blood test consistent with myocardial necrosis were admitted to the CCU. A senior doctor in the ED reviewed patients who were not admitted after 6 hours of observation. Study Group A stress tetrofosmin nuclear scan was done . Patients were then admitted and discharged depending on the results of the stress tetrofosmin scan. Control group (conventional protocol) Patients were then be admitted or discharged at the discretion of the senior ED doctor. Measurement Patients were followed up at 1 week , 2 weeks , one month and six months for any adverse cardiac events such as cardiac related death , ventricular fibrillation , and myocardial infarction. Statistical analysis Logistic regression analysis were used to compare the proportion of adverse events in the two treatment groups.
