Active clinical trials for "Infarction"

To provide insight into why vitamin D levels at baseline predict an adverse outcome including hospitalisation, we will establish whether baseline vitamin D levels are an independent marker of LV remodelling in patients experiencing an ST segment elevation myocardial infarction.

This study set out to explore the risk factors of early neurological deterioration (END) occurred in patients with acute ischemic stroke and to investigate the corresponding predictors.

Aim of this study is to describe clinical and procedural characteristics of real-world population initiated on triple antithrombotic therapy (double antiplatelet therapy+anticoagulant) or double antithrombotic therapy (single antiplatelet therapy+anticoagulant) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Investigator's driven trial, retrospective (2015-2019), multicenter Italian registry. Baseline clinical characteristics as well as procedural details will be collected retrospectively. Follow-up data (minimum 6 months and maximum 5 years follow-up) will focus on combined rates of stent thrombosis and myocardial infarction (primary endpoint).

The BioFreedom BA9 (Stainless Steel) Drug Coated Stent is an approved stent that is already commercially available in Europe and Asia. The purpose of this registry is to assess the safety and efficacy of the BioFreedom stent for treatment of a specific group of patients; patients with a myocardial infarction (STEMI). The objective is to capture patients' outcomes and antithrombotic strategies data using one or several BioFreedom Stents in the routine treatment of these STEMI patients.

Functional assessment of non-culprit lesions during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome could improve risk stratification and long-term prognosis. It was previously demonstrated the diagnostic accuracy of instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) in functional assessment of non-culprit lesions in multivessel patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), also highlighting the intralesional reproducibility of both fractional flow reserve (FFR) and iFR between baseline and staged. In this study the investigators aimed to verify the clinical impact on long-term outcome of iFR assessment in the acute multivessel setting.

Stroke is the first most common cause of death in China and one of the major causes of functional disability in the adult population.The burden of stoke is significantly increased in China in recent years. In order to investigate the prognosis of stroke, with diagnostic and treatment information of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), and assess the effectiveness and safety of TCM for stroke in southern China, the investigators will conduct this multicenter prospective registry study in southern China. This study will recruit 10,000 consecutive eligible patients with acute stroke from more than 50 hospitals. 24 months follow-up will be carried out on-site in hospitals and by telephone to track endpoint (including all-cause mortality, composite cerebrovascular and cardiovascular events at one and two year follow up, and neurological and functional assessments).

Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) are a leading cause of mortality in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery. Patients with perioperative myocardial injury (PMI), defined as either myocardial infarction and lower elevations in cardiac troponin, are also at substantially increased risk of additional cardiac and noncardiac complications. Accordingly, it is plausible to assume that PMI negatively affects quality of life in terms of disability. The aim of this study is to investigate and compare the independent prognostic effects of the different PMI phenotypes (myocardial infarction and non-infarct troponin elevations) and noncardiac complications on disability in patients undergoing elective noncardiac surgery.

To compare the ST segment resolution after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) with and without thrombus aspiration in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction as ST segment resolution is the best indicator for the prediction of the outcome and MACE

This study aims to determine whether thyroid hormone levels are predictive of cardiac remodeling following myocardial infarction and the prognosis in patients with STEMI receiving primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

The current COVID19 pandemic has afflicted almost the whole globe. The stress related to the pandemic, not the direct virus-related injury, can be potentially associated with acute cardiovascular events due to a large list of physical and psychosocial stresses. This study is a cross sectional study that will enroll patients evaluated during the COVID19 pandemic period for acute cardiovascular events.
