Active clinical trials for "Myocardial Infarction"

There are limited data on how the guideline indications for ICD implantation are applied in clinical practice across Europe. Moreover, the impact of "time-dependence" of some indications to implantation on the guidelines adherence is still unknown. Objective of the present observational study is the evaluation of the adherence to the scientific guidelines in patients with a time-dependent indication to ICD/CRT-D implantation admitted to an in-hospital cardiac rehabilitation program.

Prospective trials performed on type 2 diabetes patients without established cardiovascular disease has shown that SGLT2 inhibitors reduce cardiovascular risk. No studies have yet examined the occurrence of cardiovascular disease in patients with acute myocardial infarction. The investigators designed the current study to evaluate the most ideal oral hypoglycemic agent in type 2 diabetes patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for acute myocardial infarction. The investigators hypothesize that the use of SGLT-2 inhibitors will reduce cardiovascular events and modify left ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarctions.

AMI Survivors who participated in the project "Construction and key technology research of the whole myocardial protection system for acute myocardial infarction" (project number 2016YFC1301100) and completed the 1-year visit were followed up by telephone at 3 years (within the corresponding follow-up time window) and 5 years after discharge to acquire the patients' medication, health status, and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, including death, heart failure, rehospitalization, re-myocardial infarction, revascularization, stroke, malignant arrhythmia, and bleeding events.

There are two types of acute coronary syndrome (ACS): ACS with persistent ST segment elevation (ACS ST +) and ACS without ST segment elevation (non-ST + ACS). The incidence of non-ST + ACS is increasing and currently accounts for the majority of myocardial infarction (MI) hospitalizations, while that of ST + ACS is declining. Complications of MI, which include rhythm and conduction disturbances, are mainly associated with ACS ST +. It is recognized that these complications can occur during non-ST + ACS, but with less frequency. This frequency is not clearly established, and has been the subject of few studies. Recent studies in this direction suggest that the frequency of rhythmic complications is low during non-ST + ACS. However, the data collected concerns inter-hospital transport. The aim of the study is to estimate the frequency of occurrence of potentially fatal rhythmic complications in patients admitted to the emergency room and to the cardiology department for non-ST + ACS.

The primary aim of the study is to investigate new cardiac biomarkers and algorithms to diagnose acute coronary syndrome in patients with suspected acute myocardial infarction.

The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of plaque disruption and to assess the composition of disrupted plaques in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Additionally, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) will be used to detect myocardial abnormalities, which will be correlated to OCT findings to gain insight into the mechanisms of MI in patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (i.e. "open arteries").

The HARP study is a multi-center, diagnostic observational study employing standardized imaging protocols in patients with MINOCA (MI with Non Obstructive Coronary Arteries) to determine the underlying diagnosis in each participant. Participants will be followed for recurrent clinical events, every 6 months, for a maximum of 10 years.

AMIPE is both a retrospective and prospective study which was designed in order to collect data of patients with acute coronary syndromes and myocardial injury and to improve the knowledge about these conditions.

This study is aimed to depict the epidemiological trend, aetiologies, clinical characteristics, treatment options of IS-NOAC in face of the rapidly increasing NOAC usage. Knowledge on this ischaemic stroke entity will define clinical characteristics, identify preventable causes and inform resource allocation on the evaluation modalities, reperfusion strategies and forecast future burden of IS-NOAC.

Inflammation drives atherosclerotic plaque rupture triggering most acute coronary syndromes. Despite advances in diagnosis and management of atherosclerosis, patients with myocardial infarction (MI) remain at increased risk of recurrent events. The RIPPLE study aims to examine the relationship between residual coronary inflammation detected by 68Ga-DOTATATE PET in patients treated for MI to long-term plaque progression measured by CT coronary angiography (CTCA). The association between infarct-related myocardial 68Ga-DOTATATE PET and myocardial function and viability will also be assessed.
