Active clinical trials for "Ischemia"

The aim of this trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of conestat alfa (Ruconest®, Pharming Technologies B.V.) on renal and cerebral ischemic events in patients undergoing TAVI for severe symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS) compared to placebo.

To evaluate whether retrograde venous reperfusion of a renal graft before antegrade arterial reperfusion can reduce ischemic-reperfusion injury. All registered eligible candidates for kidney transplant will be randomized to receive either: retrograde venous, then arterial reperfusion or antegrade arterial reperfusion.

This is a multi-intervention randomized controlled trial that aimed to develop a management pattern for stroke survivors. The program consists of monitoring the recovery process, early detecting the physical and mental disorders, suitably intervening for each patient to improve their quality of life. New intervention techniques will be firstly applied for post-stroke patients in Vietnam such as using the portable functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) device to explore cortex frontal hemodynamic and motivational interviewing for psychological adjustment. A total of registered 92 stroke patients in Vietnam National Geriatrics Hospital will be included in the study for 6 months. Included patients will be randomized to an intervention group and received the long-term follow-up program or to a control group receiving standard care. The mental health and physical functioning of participants will be assessed at 0, 1, 3, and 6 months follow-up. This work was funded by Vingroup Joint Stock Company and supported by the Domestic Master/Ph.D. Scholarship Programme of Vingroup Innovation Foundation (VINIF), Vingroup Big Data Institute (VINBIGDATA).

Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) was long thought to be caused by subarachnoid blood-induced vasospasm. Experimental and clinical evidence suggest activation of several pathophysiological pathways, affecting the cerebral microcirculation. Recently, lower in-hospital mortality and less non-home discharge was reported in patients treated with therapeutic low-molecular weight heparin (LMWH), compared to patients with standard, prophylactic LMWH, pointing towards a potential benefit of higher doses of LMWH in the acute course after aSAH. Treatment with therapeutic LMWH might improve clinical outcome in endovascularly treated aSAH patients. The primary objective is to evaluate whether aSAH patients treated with therapeutic LMWH have a lower 30-day mortality rate compared to patients treated with prophylactic LMWH. Secondary objectives are to evaluate whether there are significant differences between patients treated with therapeutic and prophylactic LMWH in development of DCI, (hemorrhagic) complications during admission, hydrocephalus, non-home discharge location, quality of life, clinical outcome and cognitive functioning at three and six months, total health care costs. A single center, prospective, phase II randomized clinical trial in aneurysmal SAH patients ≥18 years old, in whom the causative aneurysm is treated with endovascular coiling less than 72 hours after initial SAH. Patients are randomized into 2 groups: (1) Therapeutic dose LMWH group: the standard prophylactic dose, administered upon hospital admission, will be replaced by nadroparin s.c. twice daily 5700 IE anti-Xa, starting within 24 hours after coiling and continued until 21 days after ictus of initial SAH. After 21 days, patients will continue with standard care prophylactic dose until discharge or when mobilized for more than 6 hours per day; (2) Control group: standard of care treatment with prophylactic dose of LMWH; nadroparin, s.c. once daily 2850 AxaIU until discharge or when mobilized for at least 6 hours a day. Primary outcome: 30-days' mortality. Secondary outcome: DCI, venous thrombo-embolic complications, occurrence of major and non-major bleeding, hemorrhagic complications after external ventricular/lumbar drain (EVD/ELD) placement and lumbar puncture (LP), other SAH-related complications, shunt-dependent hydrocephalus, discharge location, quality of life, total health care costs, cognitive functioning, clinical outcome.

The overall purpose of Flash FFR Ⅱ is to investigate whether coronary angiography-derived fractional flow reserve (caFFR), compared with fractional flow reserve (FFR) measured by a pressure wire, has non-inferior clinical effect and cost benefit in guiding the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for patients with moderate coronary artery stenosis in terms of long-term clinical prognosis.

The study was a multicenter, two-arm, parallel, open-label, prospective clinical trial that evaluated a remote intervention with 1 year of follow-up.

This is a multi-centre, open-label, single-dose safety, tolerability and PK-pharmacodynamics (PD) study of the vasodilator regadenoson in 3 paediatric age groups for whom a pharmacologic stress perfusion CMR test is clinically indicated; adolescents aged 12 to <18 years (Cohort A), children aged 2 to <12 years (Cohort B), and infants aged 1 to <24 months and who weigh at least 3 kg (Cohort C). Regadenoson will be used as the pharmacologic stress agent in this study with MPI serving as both surrogate pharmacodynamic marker of the agent (MPR, MBF) and a clinically evaluable examination for the patient

the aim of the study is to approve the hypothesis that dexmedetomidine can protect against glycocalyx degradation induced by hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury and hence can reduce the subsequent complications as early allograft dysfunction, other organ dysfunction and hemodynamic instability

The objectives of this study are to test the preliminary safety and efficacy of a two-day peri-operative course of treprostinil in reducing ischemia-reperfusion injury in adult patients receiving a deceased donor kidney transplantation. Treprostinil, a prostacyclin analog, is expected to facilitate the restoration of blood supply to the revascularized kidney graft via its vasodilatory actions, well characterized protective effects, and longer elimination half-life. These properties and actions of treprostinil make it a strong drug candidate to reduce kidney graft dysfunction during kidney transplantation. An anticipated 20 participants undergoing deceased donor kidney transplant will be hospitalized and intensively monitored during an entire two-day Treatment Phase. An IV infusion using a dedicated central venous line will be used to administer treprostinil commencing approximately 2-3 hours before transplantation of the kidney graft and will continue for approximately 48 hours after completion of the transplant surgery. The primary endpoints include the safety and efficacy of treprostinil, with secondary endpoints including the evaluation of both biochemical and clinical endpoints post-transplantation.

The iCorMicA study is a multicentre, prospective, randomised, double-blind, sham-controlled, parallel-group, end-point trial and registry. The investigators seek to determine whether stratified medical therapy guided by an adjunctive interventional diagnostic procedure (IDP) during the invasive management of patients with known or suspected angina but no obstructive coronary artery disease improves symptoms, wellbeing, cardiovascular risk and clinical outcomes.
