Active clinical trials for "Infarction"

The purpose of this study is to characterize the plaque morphology in patients with acute STEMI by OCT after aspiration thrombectomy.

Cohort study aimed at evaluating the incidence of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction after myocardial infraction (MI) and assessing the prognostic utility of change in ejection fraction (EF) over the initial 12 months after MI.

The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of frailty as a multidimensional risk factor on the outcomes of adult cardiac and vascular surgery. For the purpose of defining patient frailty a multimodal questionnaire has been developed including measurement of psychological, socioeconomical, neurological and behavioral aspects. This study also features an investigation of the possible relationship between sudden regional weather changes, individual meteorological susceptibility of the patients and the outcomes of adult cardiac and vascular surgery.

Despite modern reperfusion strategies, myocardial infarction leads to deleterious processes resulting in left ventricular remodelling (LVR) and heart failure (HF). Several biomarkers i.e. galectin-3 (Gal-3) and soluble ST-2 protein are involved in LVR as a result of inflammatory processes and fibrosis. There is an evidence of a high prognostic value of both biomarkers in prediction of outcomes in HF patients. This study will further investigate the role of Gal-3 and ST-2 in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and without prior HF in prediction of unfavourable outcomes.

To analyze whether the location of myocardial infarction and infarct related artery are related to FWR.

This retrospective observation is to investigate the incidence,clinical outcomes and prognosis of hospitalized heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).

This study research the similarity of coronary artery lesions according to HLA tissue compatibility in fisrt degree relatives of the patients who just admitted clinic as Acute coronary syndrome and underwent angiyography before .

To compare short-term clinical outcomes of primary PCI between the ostial LAD-AMI and the non-ostial LAD-AMI. The primary endpoint was the major cardiovascular events (MACE) defined as being the composite of cardiac death, AMI, stent thrombosis

The China ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) Care Project (CSCAP) aims to improve the reperfusion treatment rate and shorten the total duration of myocardial ischemia by establishing a regional STEMI treatment network covering the whole-city region, whole-city population, and whole-disease process step by step. The CSCAP is a prospective, multicenter registry involving three phases. A total of 18 provinces, 4 municipalities, and 2 autonomous regions in China were included. Patients with STEMI who met with the third acute myocardial infarction definition and the Chinese STEMI diagnosis and treatment guidelines were enrolled and the estimated number is over 50,000. Phase 1 (CSCAP-1) focused on the in-hospital process optimization of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) hospitals. Phase 2 (CSCAP-2) focused on the PPCI hospital-based regional STEMI transfer network, including emergency medical services and non-PPCI hospitals. Phase 3 (CSCAP-3) focused on the whole-city STEMI care network construction by promoting chest pain center accreditation. Systematic data collection, assessment of quality of care, and subsequent improvement were implemented throughout the project to continuously improve the quality of care for patients with STEMI. CSCAP is the first project that focused on establishing a regional STEMI emergency care network in China to help understand the condition of STEMI care in China extensively. Moreover, its objective was to optimize the quality of STEMI care through in-hospital process optimization (2012-2013), PPCI hospital-based regional STEMI transfer network construction (2015-2018), and construction of the whole-city STEMI care network step by step (2018-2021). However, hospitals were not randomly selected in CSCAP, which might be because of the lack of representatives to some degree. Alternatively, it focused on providing a tailored quality-of-care improvement plan based on the conditions of different regions.

This is a real-world prospective cohort study aiming to generate knowledge about the characteristics, treatments, and outcomes of hospitalized AMI patients in Jilin Province. The study includes hospitalizations diagnosed of AMI, including ST segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI).
