3 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to determine the factors that are associated with improved cardiovascular function with the use of CPAP therapy on subjects diagnosed with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea.
The overall objective of this multi-center registry is to identify specific phenotypes of INOCA with both an anatomic evaluation (coronary angiography and intravascular imaging) and physiologic assessment with the Abbott Coroventis Coroflow Cardiovascular System, and to determine long-term outcomes.
This study will be a randomized, single-blind, prospective trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intra-arterial (IA) Verapamil diluted with normal saline compared to undiluted IA Nicardipine during transradial access (TRA) for percutaneous coronary angiography. Patients who are 18 years or older and undergoing non-emergent percutaneous coronary angiography via TRA will be included. Patients who are non-English speaking, pregnant, or intubated will be excluded. Patients will be randomized to one of the two following groups: 1. Group 1 will receive IA Verapamil 5 mg (2mL) diluted with 8 mL of normal saline 2. Group 2 will receive IA Nicardipine 400 mcg (undiluted, 8 mL) The investigators will document the patient's level of discomfort on the Visual Analogue Scale 30 seconds before and after administration of IA Verapamil/Nicardipine. The investigators will also document the presence of radial artery spasms.
