Study With Omecamtiv Mecarbil (CK-1827452) to Treat Chronic Heart Failure With Severely Reduced Ejection Fraction
The purpose of this study is to find out if the investigational drug called omecamtiv mecarbil can reduce the risk of the effects of heart failure, like hospitalization, transplantation, or death in patients with heart failure and severely reduced ejection fraction.
Clinical Comparison of Low-dose Rosuvastatin Plus Ezetimibe Combination Therapy and High-dose Rosuvastatin Monotherapy in Patients With Minimal to Intermediate Coronary Artery Disease Without Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
[Purpose of the Clinical Study]:The purpose of this study is to conduct a clinical comparison of low-dose rosuvastatin plus ezetimibe combination therapy and high-dose rosuvastatin monotherapy in patients with minimal to intermediate coronary artery disease without percutaneous coronary intervention to confirm non-inferiority in the reduction of key cardiovascular events. [Hypothesis]:In …
Coronary Computed Tomographic Angiography in Intermediate-risk Chest Pain Patients
The aim is to determine whether a diagnostic strategy including early coronary computed tomographic angiography in intermediate-risk patients presenting to the Emergency Department with chest pain reduces the composite endpoint of death, readmission because of myocardial infarction or unstable angina requiring revascularization.
iCorMicA - Stratified Medicine in Angina
The iCorMicA study is a multicentre, prospective, randomised, double-blind, sham-controlled, parallel-group, end-point trial and registry. The investigators seek to determine whether stratified medical therapy guided by an adjunctive interventional diagnostic procedure (IDP) during the invasive management of patients with known or suspected angina but no obstructive coronary artery disease improves …
MCNAIR Study: coMparative effeCtiveness of iN-person and teleheAlth cardIac Rehabilitation
Cardiac rehabilitation is a medically recommended program for patients with certain heart conditions. It includes exercise training, health education, and counseling. Unfortunately, many patients do not participate in cardiac rehabilitation. Some find it challenging to attend the in-person sessions. This study aims to compare two methods of delivering cardiac rehabilitation: …
Personalized Activity Intervention in Rehabilitation After Cardiac Operations (the PACO Trial)
The PACO trial is a randomized clinical trial conducted in Heart Centers of Kuopio and Turku university hospitals. The coronary artery disease, aortic valve stenosis and mitral valve insufficiency patients preparing for elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), aortic valve replacement (AVR) or mitral valve repair (MVR) will be randomized …
Optimized Treatment of Pulmonary Edema or Congestion
Background Intravenous (IV) loop-diuretics have been a key component in treating pulmonary edema since the nineteen sixties and has a Class 1 recommendation in the 2021 European Society of Cardiology guidelines for heart failure. Conversely, vasodilation was downgraded in the treatment of acute heart failure due to a lack of …
Physiology-guided vs Angiography-guided Non-culprit Lesion Complete Revascularization for Acute MI & Multivessel Disease
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). …
24 Versus 12-Month Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Drug-Eluting Stent in Patients With Elevated Lipoprotein(a) Levels: A Prospective, Multicenter, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Randomized Trial
Main objective Among patients with elevated Lp(a) levels (>30mg/dL) who did not experience cardiovascular events or BARC type 2, 3, or 5 bleeding within 12 months after PCI and DES implantation, was it possible to reduce the primary adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (a composite endpoint consisting of all-cause death, …
Care Coordination to Assess Improvement in Outcomes in Hospital Readmissions
Heart failure is a syndrome that is defined by distinctive clinical, hemodynamic, and neurohormonal findings. HF represents a final common pathway for many different cardiovascular diseases, including coronary disease, hypertension, Valvular disease, and many primary heart muscle diseases. Clinically, HF patients experience dyspnea, fatigue and diminished exercise tolerance, reflecting elevated …
