Active clinical trials for "Angina, Stable"

Aim of this study is the determination of a valid procedure for ischemia diagnositc in postmenopausal women.

The purpose of this study is to compare coronary angioplasty with stent implantation with an exercise rehabilitation program in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD).

Study aim : To compare a novel strategy of lesion preparation with noncompliant balloons before implantation of BVS (Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold). Hypothesis: Predilatation with non-compliant balloons could facilitate optimal deployment of BVS. By achieving good scaffold apposition a need for post-dilatation could be significantly reduced. This is expected to result in better short- and long-term outcomes.

Ticagrelor therapy has been shown to reduce the rates of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality compared to clopidogrel therapy in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). The benefit of this study would be to demonstrate that ticagrelor therapy is associated with equivalent platelet inhibition irrespective of the disease status in patients undergoing PCI.

Non-invasive evaluation of patients with stable angina and unstable coronary syndromes with transthoracic Doppler echocardiography to evaluate presence of significant coronary stenoses. Blinded evaluation and comparison with coronary angiography: presence and location of stenoses, and head to head comparison of clinical value and patient classification.

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) after the stent procedure to improve the adhesion and expansion, or incomplete uncovered struts attached to the main track. OCT in clinical areas by improving the parameters of the best stent will be useful. However, for better results for optical coherence tomography in percutaneous interventions have little useful data on the role. Randomized controlled study of the traditional percutaneous coronary intervention and intervention using optical coherence tomography.

The goal of the ACCURACY study is to assess the differences, if any, in FFR measurements made by the OptoWire Deux FFR guidewire by comparison of simultaneous data of two different OptoWire DeuxTM guidewires (group 1). In addition, the investigators will compare (group 2) the FFR measurements obtained from an OptoWire Deux FFR guidewire and compare it to the FFR measurement by a VERRATA-TM guidewire to assess coronary stenosis in the routine clinical practice.

The register study CGM@CAD will examine whether cardiogoniometry can provide additional information concerning the indication for a diagnostic coronary angiography and if so, which additional value it has. Therefore, an additional cardiogoniometry will be carried out in consecutive patients who have been diagnosed with myocardial ischemia by means of established methods (exercise ECG, stress echocardiography, myocardial scintigraphy, or stress-MRT) and for whom an intracardiac catheter examination is regarded as indicated. The results of the different methods - particularly the results of the exercise ECG and the cardiogoniometry - will be checked against the results of the invasive examination as gold standard and the discharge diagnosis with regards to any correlation.

Collection of coronary images with a hybrid IVUS OCT system.

Prospective (analysis of retrospective data), multi-center, observational, single-arm study. This structure was selected as the "worst case" due to the fact that it represents real life usage of invasive FFR measurement is performed mostly in "gray zone" cases, which are that their severity cannot be determined intuitively and based on the physician eyeball. By using real-world historical data of invasive FFR, the analysis of the obtained data can ensure that the study results are expected to include invasive FFR results that are in the grey zone, when invasive FFR is used in real life and represent the real expected use of the product. Furthermore, the analysis of the data obtained in the studies with these similar devices measuring FFR obtained from angiograms was actually performed in a retrospective manner. That is, although the angiographic images and pressure wire recordings were obtained in real-time, due to the need to mark the vessel in real-time and obtain specific projections during the procedure without which the FFR cannot be calculated, the primary endpoint (sensitivity and specificity) and accuracy were determined in all studies by a post-hoc review by a similar independent QCA core laboratory. The invasive FFR data, as well as the software generated FFR data were reviewed post-hoc by a core laboratory or even at the company.
