Active clinical trials for "Ischemia"

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction has been consistently shown to play a considerable role in pathophysiology of Ischaemia with non-obstructed coronary arteries (INOCA). While the both diagnoses are individually related to remarkably worse outcome, there is no available method to simultaneously determine INOCA-CMD endotypes in vessel level, during the invasive diagnosis. The investigators hereby hypothesize that, combined intracoronary electrocardiogram (IC-ECG) (considering the high sensitivity and specificity of IC-ECG for studied vessel-territory) and intracoronary doppler can simultaneously and successfully identify vessel specific coronary microvascular dysfunction and resulting ischemia, which may potentially enable immediate diagnosis and endotyping of CMD-INOCA subgroups during the invasive assessment of first ANOCA episode, obviating the need for further ischemia-studies such es SPECT, which have considerably higher costs and lower sensitivity. Major coronary arteries of patients aged between 18 - 75 without obstructing coronary artery disease who have previously documented ischemia with non-obstructed coronary arteries (INOCA) via coronary angiogram and myocardial perfusion scan will be evaluated simultaneously with IC-ECG and intracoronary Doppler during rest and under adenosine induced hyperaemia. Performance of the combined system to identify Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction with structural and functional subgroups as defined by abnormal Coronary Flow Reserve (CFR) and Hyperemic Microvascular Resistance (HMR) and Ischemia in downstream territories of same vessel area (as defined by perfusion scan) is intended to be determined. The investigators also intend to interrogate the possible relationship between dynamic changes in IC-ECG parameters and invasively obtained intracoronary hemodynamic data.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the number one cause of death for women over the age of 25, accounting for 1 of every 3 female deaths. Research has shown that while hypertension in women is less controlled, they are also less likely to be identified with ischemic heart disease and when diagnosed treated less aggressively than men. Moreover, women who are diagnosed with breast cancer have an increased risk for cardiovascular disease. The Women's Assessed Cardiovascular Evaluation with MCG (WACE-MCG) study is designed to collect CardioFlux scans on a select group of female volunteers who are Ms. Medicine patients. CardioFlux is used as a noninvasive MCG tool that analyzes and records the magnetic fields of the heart to detect various forms of heart disease. There will be a 12-month duration of the study where we propose to collect screening data from approximately 200 volunteers who present to the Genetesis facility for a 5-minute CardioFlux MCG scan. The volunteers will be contacted at intervals over a 1-year period for follow-up data and may choose whether or not they would like to provide follow-up data or participate in another scan.

DEEPVESSEL FFR is a medical device that is designed to extract three- dimensional coronary tree structures and generate computed tomography-derived fraction flow reserve (FFR) values from coronary CT angiogram images. The primary objective of this multi-center clinical validation study is to validate the clinical performance of DEEPVESSEL FFR in identifying patients with myocardial ischemia due to significant obstructive coronary artery diseases.

Depersonalized multi-centered registry initiated to analyze dynamics of non-infectious diseases after SARS-CoV-2 infection in population of Eurasian adult patients.

Our objective is to determine a prognostic score including CT, clinical and biological criteria predicting the serious (death / surgery) or non-serious (medical treatment) evolution of ischemic colitis and therefore possibly modify the therapeutic management (propose surgical treatment for a severe form based on prognostic score).

Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is the top killer nowadays. Pressure-wire-based Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) is the gold standard for measuring ischemia in coronary arteries. CFD-based RuiXin-FFR, which is noninvasive, is developed recently. But its accuracy is not verified. This is a multi-center and prospective study to evaluate the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of CFD-based RuiXin-FFR compared with wire-based FFR.

Cardiac surgery and neurosurgery may decrease cerebral blood flow leading to cerebral dysfunction. Regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) monitor via Near-infrared spectometry (NIRS) is recommended for early detection and correction. The standard site of NIRS sensor is forehead area which is impractical in operation with incision at forehead area. The investigators suggest an alternative sensor site at temporal area. The objective of this study is to assess the correlation of rScO2 measured from sensor attached at forehead vs. temporal area.

Retrospective population-based study on epidemiology of acute mesenteric ischemia in Estonia Study objective is to describe epidemiologic features in adult patients with acute mesenteric ischemia during years 2016-2020. Patients from all hospitals in Estonia are included.

Intestinal obstruction is a frequent cause of emergency room visits and represents about 4-7% of the causes of acute abdominal pain syndrome and up to 30% in adults over 60 years old. Although 65 to 80% of patients are treated medically, small bowel obstruction remains a serious pathology, with a high mortality rate that can reach 25% in case of small bowel ischemia. It is necessary to systematically perform a CT scan in the initial workup of small bowel obstructions to confirm the diagnosis, identify the mechanism and detect signs of ischemia that would require emergency surgery. The best sign for the diagnosis of ischemia is the defect or asymmetry of parietal enhancement of the dilated small bowel. In the literature, this sign is described almost exclusively at portal time. In case of suspicion of mesenteric ischemia (another serious pathology affecting the small bowel), it is recommended to perform an examination with three acquisitions (without injection, arterial time, and portal time). The department's experience has shown that arterial time is sometimes more sensitive than portal time for visualizing a parietal enhancement defect of the small bowel in mechanical occlusions. Very few studies have investigated the diagnostic performance of parietal enhancement asymmetry on arterial time in mechanical occlusions of the small bowel.
