Active clinical trials for "ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction"

This study will evaluate the performance of the CorPath GRX System in Robotic Primary PCI (RPPCI) in the treatment of ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI).

Erectile dysfunction is a common sexual problem affecting up to one-third of men throughout their life. It is now well recognized that risk factors for erectile dysfunction (ED) include the same risk factors as coronary artery disease, including smoking, dyslipidemia, diabetes, hypertension, lack of physical activity and obesity. We will investigate the effect of reperfusion strategies (primary angioplasty & therapeutic therapy) on the prevalence of erectile dysfunction after acute myocardial infarction. Erectile function will be evaluated using the international index of erectile function after 3 months of successful reperfusion treatment of acute myocardial infarction.

Reliability of 3D angio QFR functional evaluation of all non culprit lesions >50% in STEMI patients during first acute procedure

Hyperglycemia is a common finding in patients diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and an independent predictor of mortality in patients with and without diabetes. Though percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the cornerstone of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), the incidence of heart failure, re-infarction and death in hyperglycemic patients remains significant, with a mortality of more than 40% one year after the event. In these STEMI patients dual anti-aggregation therapy is currently the gold standard after PCI, but bleeding phenomena, and therapeutic resistance may reduce their therapeutic efficacy. Therefore, it is likely that the individual response to the dual anti-aggregation therapy, and the hyperglycemic stress, may influence resistance mechanisms, and/or lead to an increase in pharmacological functional deactivation by the microbiotic flora. The term microbiota indicates the totality of the genomes of microorganisms that reside in an ecological niche, and which constitute the "human microbiota". In this context, the analysis of the faecal microbiota before PCI, at hospital discharge and at follow-up, could be considered useful for identifying hyperglycaemic patients with alteration of metabolic-oxidative processes, and pro-thrombotic correlates with worse post procedural prognosis. Therefore, the analysis of faecal microbiota during the STEMI event could theoretically identify hyperglycemic patients with excessive inflammatory and oxidative tone caused by hyperglycemia, conditioning resistance to double anti-aggregation therapy and coronary stenting, and conditioning pro-thrombotic phenomena after coronary reperfusion by PCI. Therefore, authors will conduct a study to analyze the microbiota in patients with acute hyperglycaemic and normoglycemic coronary syndrome. The primary objective of this study will be to evaluate any changes in the microbiota and its activity on faecal material taken before PCI, and after 6 and 12 months in patients with hyperglycemic STEMI, and also evaluate if the changes in the microbiota can be related to the 12-month prognosis.

Cost effectiveness between PPCI and thrombolytic therapy in STEMI patients without contraindications

BHS is a cohort study of consecutive myocardial infarction (MI) patients admitted within the first 24 hours of symptoms and has been ongoing since May of 2006. The purpose of this study is to assess for possible markers for increased risk after MI.

Successfully perfused STEMI patients will receive routine transthoracic echocardiography qid for 4 days or placebo. Myocardial function and infarct size will be evaluated at 3 and 6 months.

The role of lipids as risk factors for cardiovascular events is well-documented, although events studied have largely been broad classes without specific detail. This study will examine a more refined set of endpoints.

This study aims to determine whether combination with regulatory T cell (Treg) levels and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) are predictive of the severity of reperfusion injury following myocardial infarction and the prognosis in STEMI patients receiving primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI).

all patient presented with ST elevated myocardial infarction and underwent PPCI will be calculated with CHA2DS2-VASC score and contrast volume / creatinine clearance as apredictive value for Contrast induced nephropathy and the predictive value of these scores will be compared with the approved predictive value of MEHRAN score which is also will be calculated to every patient .
