45 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The SuperSaturated Oxygen Comprehensive Observational Registry (SSCORE) registry, a prospectively designed observational study, aims to evaluate the clinical utility and effectiveness of SuperSaturated Oxygen (SSO2) Therapy versus percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) alone among patients with anterior acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in routine clinical practice. The goal is to collect real-world data from patients treated with SSO2 Therapy to determine its impact on the overall heart failure (HF) burden on patients and healthcare systems compared with usual care for treatment of patients with AMI. The SSCORE Registry will generate effectiveness and healthcare resource utilization data that will be used in cost-effectiveness analysis modeling.
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).
This study will determine the impact of Transcutaneous Vagus Stimulation(TVNS) and autonomic modulation of inflammation in patients admitted with " acute heart attack." After admission for "acute heart attack" or "myocardial infarction" patients will be randomized to either TVNS or placebo and their blood samples will be collected at different time points during admission and post discharge. Blood samples will be analyzed for various markers of inflammation.
This study evaluates differences in the extent of myocardial necrosis noted by cardiac MRI in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction randomized to receive cangrelor during their percutaneous coronary intervention and compares them to patients randomized to not receive cangrelor.
Adults who have had an ST-elevation myocardial infarction and were treated with stent placement will receive an intravenous infusion of a monoclonal antibody in order to prevent further heart muscle damage. The goal is to learn if this treatment improves some measures of heart function and inflammation. The study treatment patients will be compared to patients who receive placebo (inactive treatment).
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.
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.
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: 1. Evaluation of markers of neutrophil activity at randomization (baseline) and 3 months follow-up in the colchicine versus placebo groups, and; 2. 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: 1. Assess the effect of colchicine on neutrophil activation in response to STEMI. 2. Examine clinical and genetic factors that determine heterogeneity of treatment response anddistinguish colchicine responders from non- responders. 3. 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 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 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.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate whether using the the IMPELLA® CP System temporary circulatory assist device for 30 minutes prior to a catheterization procedure has the potential to reduce the damage to the heart caused by a heart attack, compared to the current standard of care.
The primary endpoint is to assess the safety and tolerability of Cenderitide (CD-NP) with the incidence of symptomatic hypotension being one of the key safety variables.
This study will assess relationship between ischemic time and the extent of myocardial infarction with cardiac magnetic resonance image in patients with STEMI (ST elevation myocardial infarction) and primary percutaneous coronary intervention.
This study will evaluate change in heart muscle function from baseline to three months and twelve months in participants who present with a heart attack and a completely occluded coronary artery. These subjects will be randomized to receive standard Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA)/Stenting to open the artery or routine PTCA/Stenting plus post conditioning. Post conditioning commences immediately upon reperfusion using four cycles of thirty second inflations with a standard angioplasty balloon followed by a thirty seconds of reperfusion. The investigators hypothesize that Postconditioning reduces the size of the heart attack when utilized with successful primary Angioplasty/stent.
This is a Phase 3 prospective, blinded, randomized, placebo controlled, international multicenter study. Subjects with STEMI will be enrolled in the ambulance if they meet all eligibility criteria. These subjects will be evaluated by (para)medics who transport the subjects to the participating hospitals in Europe and North America. Hospitals and ambulance services with experience in ambulance studies will be selected. Each subject will receive a single subcutaneous injection containing either Disaggpro(tm) zalunfiban Dose 1 (0.110 mg/kg) or Disaggpro(tm) zalunfiban Dose 2 (0.130 mg/kg) or placebo
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.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of human allogeneic mesenchymal bone marrow cells (aMBMC) administered intravenously to subjects with ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI).
This is an international, randomized, controlled, parallel group study in which patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) will be allocated to one of the following: Manual aspiration thrombectomy with Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) or PCI alone.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether hemodynamic support with an Impella-based treatment strategy initiated prior to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI)-Cardiogenic Shock (CS) improves survival and functional outcomes compared to a non-Impella-based treatment strategy.
Coronary microcirculatory dysfunction has been known to be prevalent even after successful revascularization of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. Microvascular obstruction (MVO) in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is significant prognostic indicator in STEMI patients after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Although current gold-standard method to assess microvascular damage or dysfunction in STEMI patients is CMR and assessment of MVO, previous study presented that index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR) in culprit vessel of STEMI patients showed significant association with the presence of MVO in CMR and the risk of cardiac death or heart failure admission. Nevertheless, the need for pressure-temperature sensor wire and hyperemic agents significantly limits adoption of IMR in daily practice. Recent technical development enabled angiographic derivation of IMR without pressure wire, hyperemic agents, or thermodilution method. In this regard, the current study will evaluate the feasibility of functional angiography-derived IMR (angio-IMR) in the evaluation of MVO after successful primary PCI for STEMI.
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 will evaluate the effect of BB3 to preserve myocardial (heart) tissue and function following myocardial infarction (heart attack).
The size of a heart attack will be decreased by the use of timed balloon inflations to open the blocked blood vessel.
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.
The goal of the study was to evaluate the effect of single administration of RPH-104 at 80 mg and 160 mg on parameters of systemic inflammation and outcomes of the disease in subjects with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)
Rural Americans are more likely to be unhealthy, older, living in poverty, uninsured, and medically underserved. The CDC has made achieving health equity and improving cardiovascular health for rural Americans one of their Healthy People 2020 overarching goals. ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) is a life-threatening cardiovascular emergency that frequently affects people without warning within the communities the Participants live and work. Patients with STEMI have a linear relationship between first medical contact to Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) time and mortality. Delays are particularly important in STEMI patients with cardiogenic shock, who experience an excess 3.3 deaths per 100 for every 10 minute delay to PCI (for PCI times between 60-180 minutes). Delayed PCI is also associated with a higher rate of long term morbidity, including congestive heart failure and repeat MI. Unfortunately, many rural EMS agencies fail to consistently achieve the recommended 90 minute PCI time goal. Rural agencies are less likely than urban/suburban agencies to meet time goals and this disparity exposes rural patients to excess morbidity and mortality. The American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) endorse the need for prehospital strategies to reduce total ischemic time, particularly in rural settings.
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.
Is the Smartphone ECG (electrocardiogram) an acceptable replacement for a standard ECG in the identification of STEMI (ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction).
Patients with partially blocked blood vessel(s) in their heart may need a medical procedure called "Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI)" to open the narrowed blood vessel(s). The purpose of this study is to simultaneously address four potential advances in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) care for patients at least 65 years old. The investigators are looking to see if these advances can improve the outcome for these patients. 1. Opening the arteries with a Medtronic stent 2. Radial access (from wrist) success with a Medtronic stent 3. Checking the percent of blockage in the diseased artery/arteries using Volcano guide wires. 4. Reduced bleeding and vascular complications with radial arterial access for primary PCI in STEMI.
