Active clinical trials for "Infarction"

Evaluate the effectiveness of the of kallikrein in the different drug frequency for acute anterior circulation cerebral infarction.

Evaluate the efficacy, Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Intravenous single injection LC28-0126 immediately before Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) in Patients with ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI).

Microvascular dysfunction is a key determinant of pathogenesis and outcome in patients suffering an acute myocardial infarction. The investigators hypothesise that treatment with intracoronary abciximab, a potent anti platelet agent, at the time of coronary stent insertion, will improve microvascular function.

Restoring the patency of the coronary vessels and providing the ischemic myocardium with reperfused blood can cause additional tissue damage. A key element of ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injury and major determinant of the evolution of damage in the affected myocardium is the inflammatory response. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of colchicine in reducing I/R injury by effectively modulating the inflammatory response in the reperfused myocardium.

International guidelines support the use of a full-dose heparin (anticoagulants) during coronary intervention. However, a lower dose of heparin may be adequate, thanks to advances in angioplasty techniques and the widespread use of pretreatment with two antiplatelet agents. Thus the investigators designed a study comparing safety and efficacy of standard dose heparin (100 UI/Kg) versus low-dose (50 UI/Kg) in patients undergoing coronary angioplasty who are on aspirin and clopidogrel at the time of the procedure.

Aim Primary percutaneous coronary intervention efficacy improvement by DIVER CE thrombectomy system leading to thrombus reduction. Study design: Multicenter, prospective, opened, randomized. Primary endpoints: ST resolution >70% 60 minutes after PCI Secondary endpoints: Thrombectomy system efficacy/passing trough lesion with thrombus reduction according do TIMI thrombus scale ≥ 1 TIMI 3 flow after PCI MBG 3 CMR - infarct size, measurement of left ventricular end-diastolic EDV and end-systolic volumes ESV and ejection fraction (EF) ECHO: measurement of left ventricular end-diastolic EDV and end-systolic volumes ESV, ejection fraction (EF) and wall motion score index (WMSI) Major cardiac events /cardiac death, reMI, rePCI (TVR, TLR, non infarct involved vessel) or CABG/ 6 month follow up Rate of composite angiographic adverse events including: distal embolisation, transient no-reflow or slow flow, final TIMI <3, need of bail out GpIIb/IIIa inhibitors or adenosine or nitroprosside, final thrombus score >1

Investigate the effect of selective intracoronary administration of adenosine on myocardial salvage and microvascular integrity in the setting of acute myocardial infarction.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of Aerobic Physical Activity on the function of the Autonomic System in patients after Myocardial Infarction or Stroke. A secondary objective is to examine whether it is possible to predict which of the patients will most benefit from physical activity (exercise training), taking into account, genetic factors such as Polymorphism of ACE (Angiotensin Converting Enzyme)

Erythropoietin (EPO) is a naturally occuring hormone which regulates the body's response to lack of oxygen and controls the number of red cells in the blood. Recent studies in animals have shown that EPO has protective effects when organs such as the heart and brain are injured by lack of oxygen due to reduced blood supply. We wish to test the idea that giving a patient, who is having a heart attack, an injection of EPO will reduce the size of the heart attack.

The investigators aimed to evaluate the outcome in participants up to 80 years of age with space-occupying cerebellar infarction treated with suboccipital decompressive craniectomy (SDC) compared to medical therapy alone.
