Active clinical trials for "Infarction"

The Kitasato PCI Registry is a single-center, observational, prospective study. This study aims to investigate the impact of characteristics in clinical manifestation, patients' background, procedure of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and pre/post PCI culprit/nonculprit lesion observed by intra-coronary imaging modality on clinical outcomes.

In this study the investigators aim to examine the role that fibrosis plays in heart conditions such as aortic stenosis , chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity and carcinoid syndrome . Fibrosis is a common final result following any injury to the heart muscle and the investigators aim to identify this process early and in its active state. This will be examined by using a radiotracer 68Ga-FAPI or 18F-AlF-FAPI and PET-MRI or PET-CT.

To investigate the risk factors involved in the occurrence and prognosis of the patients with acute coronary syndrome, patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention will be recruited and followed up for at least 2 years.

This study is being done in order to create a registry (list) of people interested in Cerebral Autosomal Dominant Arteriopathy with Subcortical Infarcts and Leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) research. It may be that you have a family member or other loved one with CADASIL, or that you may have CADASIL or are at risk. Participation means that your name will be added to a list of people who will be invited to participate in future research studies on CADASIL. Participants must be 18 years or older, and will remain on the registry until they request to be removed.

ECMO has been used to save the lives of many critically ill patients with cardiorespiratory dysfunction as important rescue therapy. Though the proportion of ECMO applied to this population has been increasing year by year, clinical outcomes of AMI remain poor with high in-hospital mortality. Thus, it is necessary to characterize clinical features and investigate potentially modifiable factors contributing to outcomes of AMI patients who received ECMO treatment.

This protocol describes a retrospective, single-center study intended to test the impact of optical coherence tomography(OCT) on long term clincical outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI). All the patients will be followed by intracoronary OCT at medium follow-up of 3 years.

The size of a heart attack will be decreased by the use of timed balloon inflations to open the blocked blood vessel.

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.
