Active clinical trials for "ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction"

This is an European prospective cohort study from February 2023 until February 2024. The investigators want to analyze the clinical success, efficacy and safety of consecutive patients who presented with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for de novo heavily calcified culprit lesion using plaque modification devices before stent implantation.

Despite the year-on-year decrease, coronary artery disease (CAD) still remains one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. With advances in technology and our understanding of cardiac disease, we can now treat CAD using minimally invasive interventional techniques. This has revolutionised treatment for and improved the lives of many patients with CAD. Although trials have assessed various therapeutic strategies in various populations, real-world evidence of intervention and medical treatment among patients with CAD is increasingly recognised as an important part of providing safety and efficacy data and improving the care we provide. Regional heart attack services have improved clinical outcomes following ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) by facilitating early reperfusion by primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Early discharge after primary PCI is welcomed by patients and increases the efficiency of health care. This data will add to that literature by assessing the characteristics and outcomes of patients with CAD, concentrating on those who are discharged via the early discharge pathway. It will also identify and characterise predictors of outcomes, and improve risk stratification and diagnostic evaluation.

This study aims to investigate and evaluate clinical performance and quality measures for adults with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in China. Further more, the investigates like to develop quality improvement strategies and relevant tools focusing on treatment and clinical outcome in patients with STEMI. This is a annually survey , through consecutively recruiting all eligible inpatients and collecting relevant medical information, the performance of all participating hospitals. Further, quality improvement strategies including summary of clinical performance and quality measures, clinical pathways and team building will be organized for the purpose of quality improvement. All hospitals will consecutively recruit qualified patients in the same method adopted in baseline period. Then the reperfusion rates and other performance measures will be compared annually.

CLEAR SYNERGY is an international multi center 2x2 randomized placebo controlled trial of colchicine and spironolactone in patients with STEMI. Subjects enrolled in the main CLEAR SYNERGY trial will be asked to participate in this sub study (n=670) to undergo: Evaluation of markers of neutrophil activity at randomization (baseline) and 3 months follow-up in the colchicine versus placebo groups, and; Examination of clinical and genetic factors that determine heterogeneity of treatment response and distinguish colchicine responders from non- responders. Participants undergo a blood draw at baseline and 3 months follow-up as part of the main trial, and participants who also participate in this sub study will have an additional 2 tablespoons of blood drawn. The sub study objectives are to: Assess the effect of colchicine on neutrophil activation in response to STEMI. Examine clinical and genetic factors that determine heterogeneity of treatment response anddistinguish colchicine responders from non- responders. Explore the derivation of a risk score that includes markers of neutrophil activity and is associated with adjudicated MACE over 3 years after STEMI, and assess the impact of colchicine on the relation between this risk score and MACE.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ketotifen (MC stabilizer) on the basis of standard treatment after primary PCI in STEMI patients. The ketotifen group and the control group were the ketotifen group and the control group. The control group continued to receive STEMI standard treatment. The ketotifen group received ketotifen for 3 months on the basis of standard treatment within 24 hours after primary PCI, and was followed up for 1 year. Infarct size, as well as differences in echocardiography, markers of two-dimensional speckle tracking, inflammatory factors and MC markers, and major adverse cardiovascular events.

Aim of this single center randomized open label trial with blinded in-hospital outcomes assessment is designed with aim to compare manual thrombus aspiration followed by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) strategy with PCI alone.

Patients with chest pain and persistent ST segment elevation (STE) may not have acute coronary occlusions or serum troponin curves suggestive of acute necrosis. Our objective is the validation and cost-effectiveness analysis of a diagnostic model assisted by artificial intelligence (AI). Our hypothesis is that an AI analysis of the surface electrocardiogram allows a better distinction of patients with STE due to acute myocardial ischemia, from those with another etiology. This is a prospective multicenter study with two groups of patients with STE: I) coronary arteries without significant lesions and without serum troponin curve suggestive of acute necrosis, II) myocardial infarction with acute coronary occlusion. A manual centralized electrocardiographic analysis and another by AI algorithms will be performed.

The primary objective of the PERI-STEMI trial is to assess whether sacubitril-valsartan is more effective in preventing adverse LV remodeling for patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) than enalapril.

Heart attacks are caused by a blood clot blocking the blood vessels of the heart, preventing blood getting to the heart muscle. Opening up the artery with a balloon (angioplasty) and a small mesh tube (stent) although life saving can cause this clot to break up and get washed downstream, which can make the heart attack worse. The investigators can measure the amount of damage caused to the microcirculation by calculating the IMR (Index of Microcirculatory resistance). This can be measured by a wire in the coronary artery with a pressure sensor at the tip. If the IMR is elevated, it is suggestive of extensive microcirculatory damage. A clot dissolving medicine can be administered in the artery to try and reduce the IMR which can reduce damage to the heart muscle and improve outcomes. Impaired microcirculatory perfusion in patients as a result of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is associated with poor clinical outcomes. This project seeks to identify patients with impaired microcirculatory perfusion after STEMI and to assess whether acute improvement in microcirculatory perfusion in these patients by the use of intracoronary thrombolytic therapy results in improved clinical outcomes.

This clinical trial aims to compare conventional radial access versus distal radial access in patients with STEMI undergoing PCI. The main question it aims to answer is: • Mayor adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 30 days in STEMI patients treated by PCI are not inferior when comparing the distal radial approach versus the conventional radial approach ? Participants will: sign the informed consent to enroll in the clinical trial. will agree to be treated by PCI will be randomized 1:1 to perform PCI by conventional radial or distal radial approach. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare conventional radial access vs distal radial access to see if the distal approach is not inferior compared to the conventional radial access in order to offer less or equal MACE and a similar rate of a successful procedure.
