Active clinical trials for "Myocardial Ischemia"

The study aims to assess contemporary practice in OCT use during routine interven-tional practice and to assess the impact of the MLD-MAX algorithm on real-world PCI in a large unselected European all-comer-study cohort.

This study will evaluate the diagnostic performance of an accelerated stress CMR protocol, comparing it with that of standard CMR assessment.

In a cohort of patients referred to coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), the investigators aim: To describe the natural history of the coronary atherosclerotic plaque development and progression or regression, as well as the plaque characterization and phenotypes over time by CCTA among deferred coronary lesions To explore the precursors of plaques leading to acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) in deferred coronary lesions To investigate prognostic implication of qualitative and quantitative plaque analysis of stenosis and plaque features, disease patterns, hemodynamic parameters, and fat metrics on CCTA along with physiologic assessment To investigate the effects of different treatment strategies according to stenosis and plaque features, fat metrics on CCTA along with physiologic assessments.

Despite optimal angiographic result after stent implantation, a number of patients will undergo repeat angiography within 1 year of index procedure. EASY-PRIPCI is an observational study evaluating the incidence of abnormal physiology results in patients undergoing repeat angiography after uncomplicated percutaneous intervention (PCI).

To compare MiStent to either the Xience or Promus stents.with the primary objective being to assess the safety and efficacy of the MiStent in a patient population requiring revascularization of de novo obstructive lesions of coronary arteries in patients with stable and unstable coronary artery disease (CAD) including non ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI)

Safety evaluation of Intra-Coronary Administration of MCRcI® stem cells in Patients with Diffuse Coronary Artery Disease.

The MINOCA-GR registry will be the first nationwide study aiming to obtain data regarding prevalence, demographics, clinical profile, previous anginal status, presence of cardiovascular risk factors, management and outcomes in patients with Myocardial Infarction with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries. An additional purpose of the registry is to highlight, for the first time worldwide to the best of the investigator's knowledge, the role of cardiac computed tomography angiography for risk stratification and personalized therapeutic approach in MINOCA patients.

Comparison of elective infrarenal aneurysm surgery with open and endovascular technique, respectively, for subclinical ischemic myocardial injury detectable with troponin T and/or 3-channel Holter ECG with ST analysis

This study evaluates the effectiveness and safety rotational atherectomy in routine clinical practice.

Information gathered from the patients via a disease specific questionnaire will be married to data from the National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR®). Details will be continuously analyzed and used to direct quality of care at our center. The institution is categorized as a low-volume institution for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for coronary artery disease treatment as well as surgical and endocardial ablation for the management of atrial fibrillation (Afib). The association between operator volume and quality has primarily focused on rare complications, such as mortality. The aim is to highlight the advantages of receiving care close to home. A benefit of offering the procedures to treat diseases at centers that have lower volumes is to improve patients' outcomes while also providing more convenient access to quality care. The key outcome from the patients' experience is alleviation of their symptoms while increasing function and quality of life. To date, there have been no studies documenting the health status benefits of PCI and surgical / endocardial ablation for coronary artery disease and Afib, respectively with low- volume operators. In this study, the investigators sought to examine the feasibility of implementing patient-reported outcomes into clinical care and to demonstrate evidence of benefits, from patients' perspectives, of receiving treatment by low-volume operators.
