Active clinical trials for "Myocardial Ischemia"

Nicorandil is potentially effective to prevent cardiovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) receiving hemodialysis. The purpose of this study is to prospectively investigate whether nicorandil is effective in reducing the incidence of cardiovascular events in patients with CAD on hemodialysis.

The aim of the CARDIOBASE Bern PCI registry is to collect baseline clinical and procedural data as well as to assess the clinical outcomes of all patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at Bern University Hospital. All patients undergoing PCI with or without stent implantation will be prospectively registered. Device use is according to the decision of the treating physician and independent of this registry. At hospital discharge and one year, the following outcomes will be assessed: death, cardiac death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, repeat revascularisation, stent thrombosis, stroke, bleeding, renal failure and vascular complications.

This study aims to compare the effectiveness and safety regarding treatment with standard anticoagulant only or adding antiplatelet to anticoagulant in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and significant atherosclerosis including extracranial, intracranial, coronary or peripheral artery.

Coexistence of Cerebral and Coronary Atherosclerosis in Acute Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease Patients Registry (CoCCA) is a single-center observational registry of patients hospitalized for acute ischemic cerebrovascular disease (AICVD) with atherosclerotic changes in both cerebral and coronary arteries. This registry aims to establish quantified risk stratification and prognostic models, as well as suggest effective diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

Drug-coated balloon (DCB) is an alternative choice for patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). This study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of DCB treatment in patients with CAD.

The primary objective of this registry is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Supraflex Family sirolimus-eluting coronary stent system in a 'real-world' patient population requiring stent implantation.

This is a single-center double blind, placebo controlled study of patients undergoing a cardiac catheterization where the need for a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is anticipated or will be determined during the early diagnostic phase. The study will assess the use of intracoronary nicardipine vs. sterile saline injection in reducing the index measurement of microcirculatory resistance (IMR). Fifty consecutive patients presenting to the Thomas Jefferson University (TJUH) Cardiac Catheterization lab will be randomized in a 1:1 fashion to receive either intracoronary nicardipine or sterile saline injection prior to PCI. IMR values will be assessed pre and post procedure. Data on clinical outcomes and adverse events will be collected by phone at 30 days and 1 year following the procedure.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare low-dose colchicine (0.5 mg Once Daily) with no specific intervention in selected elderly patients (60-80 years old) with residual inflammatory risk (hs-CRP≥ 2mg/L) and multivessel coronary artery disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether the intervention is effective in reducing ischemic events Whether the intervention is effective in reducing inflammatory biomarkers' level Whether the intervention is safe for elderly patients Participants will be randomized to receive low-dose colchicine (0.5 mg Once Daily) or no specific intervention for one year. Patients enrolled should complete one-year follow-up in the form of clinic visit or telephone call.

Discovered thousands of years ago, coffee is among the most consumed beverages in the world. The relationship between coffee and cardiovascular risk, more specifically coronary artery disease, is controversial. Platelet aggregation and its relationship with coffee is also controversial. The investigators propose this study to evaluate the relationship between coffee and platelet aggregability in patients with coronary artery disease.
