Active clinical trials for "Coronary Disease"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the CORACTO® (Rapamycin®-Eluting coronary stent delivery system) for the treatment of up to two de novo lesions or restenotic post-PTCA (non-stented) lesions located in up to two epicardial native coronary arteries (maximum one lesion per vessel) suitable for treatment with stents from 2.5 to 4.0 mm in diameter < than 15 mm suitable for treatment with a single CORACTO® stent in a population of 100 patients.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the total costs of care associated with uncomplicated elective or low-risk urgent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) through 30-day follow up are lower among patients who are randomly assigned to same day discharge (SDD) or overnight hospital stay (ON).

Encouraged by the recent data published ,the investigators think that a waiting time of 10 minutes is feasible while preserving diagnostic accuracy and would like to assess the feasibility and diagnostic efficacy of W10 compared with W30 imaging in a pilot study. By combining W10 imaging with half-time acquisition, the time of the technetium-99m myocardial perfusion imaging procedure could be shortened by at least 50%, lasting only 40 minutes for W10 (10-minute waiting) imaging compared with 90 minutes for W30 imaging (30-minute waiting). The investigators hypothesize that (1) W10 MPI is clinically feasible and tolerable by the patients, that (2) W10 MPI provides high image quality and that (3) W10 MPI provides diagnostic accuracy comparable to W30 MPI.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of paclitaxel-eluting balloon (SeQuent® Please) for treatment of lesions in native small coronary arteries.

This is a pilot randomized study that aim to assess the safety and feasibility of a hybrid myocardial revascularization strategy (coronary artery by-pass graft and percutaneous intervention) in comparison with conventional surgical coronary bypass grafting.

Cardiac rehabilitation, including physical training, has become accepted treatment following myocardial infarction, coronary stent implantation and coronary bypass operation. Besides modifying patients' risk profile for future coronary problems, the focus is on improving exercise capacity. The ability to be able to perform at a higher maximal level is a strong predictor for outcome (new cardiovascular events and mortality). The main purpose of this study is to evaluate whether aerobic interval training outweighs more classical moderate endurance training in improving exercise capacity. During interval training, patients perform exercise at high intensity, but for only a couple of minutes and then recover at a lower intensity. Such intervals are repeated. Preliminary evidence from smaller studies suggests that this type of training leads to a larger increase in exercise capacity, compared to the more traditional endurance training at moderate intensity. In addition, mechanisms that might explain how this improvement is achieved, as well as safety and impact on quality of life will be studied.

The objective of this pilot study is to compare the PFS-eluting stent (ISAR Rapa G1) with the PPS-eluting stent (Cypher®) regarding uncovered stent strut segments at 5 years.

To compare the safety and efficacy of coronary stenting with everolimus-eluting stent (Promus Element®) and biolimus-eluting stent with biodegradable polymer (Nobori®)

BIOSOLVE-II is a prospective, international, multicenter, First in Man study. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and clinical performance of the drug eluting absorbable metal scaffold (DREAMS 2nd Generation).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the supplementation with extra virgin of coconut oil combined with a nutritional counseling in reducing anthropometry and improves the lipid profile in patients with chronic coronary disease.
