17 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of RO4905417 in patients with non ST-elevation myocardial infarction (Non-STEMI) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patients will be randomized to receive an intravenous infusion of either 5 mg/kg RO4905417 or 20 mg/kg RO4905417 or placebo before PCI. Follow-up will be for 4 months.
This is a registry of patients with non ST segment elevation Myocardial Infarction (heart attack) and/or unstable acute coronary artery syndrome treated with a standardized protocol including Bivalirudin. Data will be collected on diagnosis, treatment and outcomes.
The objective of this research study is to test the accuracy of preexisting criteria versus expert interpretation for the diagnosis of acute coronary occlusion (major heart attack due to a completely blocked blood vessel). If our hypothesis proves to be true, this would provide a significant improvement in the care for patients who present to the hospital with possible symptoms of coronary ischemia (symptoms due to lack of blood flow to the heart). The primary analysis will be designed as a multi-center, retrospective case-control study.
This study randomizes patients seen by Redmond Medic One into a control arm and a study arm when they present with acute coronary syndrome and have non-contributory ECG's (i.e.non-STEMI). The control group is treated normally and delivered to the receiving hospital. The study group is treated normally as well, however troponin measurements are made using an i-STAT blood analyzer prior to hospital arrival. The results are presented to the receiving physician. Door-to-reperfusion time is monitored for both groups.
COMPLETE-2 is a prospective, multi-centre, randomized controlled trial comparing a strategy of physiology-guided complete revascularization to angiography-guided complete revascularization in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD) who have undergone successful culprit lesion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). COMPLETE-2 OCT is a large scale, prospective, multi-centre, observational, imaging study of patients with STEMI or NSTEMI and multivessel CAD in a subset of eligible COMPLETE-2 patients.
The purposes of the study are to 1) study alterations in the metabolomic profile of patients exposed to post-ischemic conditions and 2) study alterations in myocardial infarction size of patients exposed to post-ischemic conditioning.
Immediate potent inhibition of platelet function is critical for the prevention of periprocedural ischemic event occurrences in high risk N-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Currently, dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and an oral P2Y12 receptor blocker (with loading doses) is widely used for PCI. However, immediate, potent and reversible inhibition of platelet aggregation is not possible even with the newer oral agents, prasugrel and ticagrelor. Therefore, an intravenously administered GPIIb/IIIa receptor inhibitor (tirofiban) or P2Y12 receptor blocker (cangrelor) with fast onset and offset of actions will provide more desired antiplatelet effects in the setting of PCI. This study will measure and compare the anti-platelet effects of Tirofiban and Cangrelor in patients presenting with N-STEMI and undergoing PCI.
The CERAMICS study is designed to more clearly delineate the current care of acute myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock (AMICS) patients who are treated with mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices in the United States with significant experience in MCS, all of whom have the capability of MCS escalation on-site. Study enrollment is targeted at 120 patients at 20 hospital sites, evaluating clinical outcomes, and focusing on outcomes MCS escalation decision making and ICU level management.
Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to explore the initial feasibility and acceptability of (a) Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) adapted for ACS patients; (b) the group videoconferencing delivery medium; and (c) dried blood spot research procedures, to inform refinements for a subsequent pilot RCT.
The purpose of this implementation trial is to execute a nurse-led, home-based cardiac rehabilitation (HBCR) program, evaluate the program's impact on patient outcomes over 6 months; and compare outcomes of HeartHome (HH) participants to a group of participants in traditional cardiac rehabilitation (CR).
The study aims to determine the feasibility and clinical utility of incorporating precision medicine approaches, incorporating both cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) genotyping and platelet reactivity phenotyping, with standard of care for patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS), post PCI.
The objective of this study is to identify Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACS) patients' specific needs and preferences for depression treatment via in-person or virtual individual interviews to (a) guide MBCT adaptation; and identify barriers and facilitators to (b) group videoconferencing delivery, and (c) blood spot data collection to enhance feasibility. Through qualitative measures participants will report specific physical, cognitive, and behavioral symptoms to be targeted in the intervention, discuss barriers and facilitators to participating in a video-conference treatment program and completing blood spot data collection procedures.
This study evaluates the use of early mechanical circulatory support in patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock. Patients are treated according to the National Cardiogenic Shock Initiative protocol, which emphasizes early identification of cardiogenic shock and rapid delivery of mechanical circulatory support based on invasive hemodynamics. All patients treated in this manner are enrolled in the National Cardiogenic Shock registry.
The objective of this prospective, single-blind clinical investigation is to demonstrate the superiority of an Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)-guided stent implantation strategy as compared to an angiography-guided stent implantation strategy in achieving larger post-PCI lumen dimensions and improving clinical cardiovascular outcomes in patients with high-risk clinical characteristics and/or with high-risk angiographic lesions.
While troponin is not detectable until several hours after an Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI), copeptin is expected to be elevated very early after an AMI. A combination of both markers for the diagnosis of AMI early after the event is therefore expected to be advantageous.
The purpose of ST Detect study is to evaluate whether naturally occurring spontaneous coronary events and exercise induced cardiac ischemia, give rise to detectable changes on intracardiac electrogram (EGM) signals in patients that are indicated for an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) who have coronary artery disease.
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that the efficacy of cangrelor is superior, or at least non-inferior, to that of clopidogrel in subjects requiring PCI.
