CT Stress Myocardial Perfusion, Fractional Flow Reserve and Angiography in Patients With Stable Chest Pain Syndromes
The purpose of the DYNAMITE trial (Dynamic CT stress myocardial perfusion, CT fractional flow reserve (FFR-CT) and coronary CT angiography for optimized treatment strategy in patients with chest pain syndromes) is to determine the ability of combined anatomical and functional cardiac CT imaging to improve morbidity and mortality in patients …
What is the Optimal Antithrombotic Strategy in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing PCI?
The optimal antithrombotic management in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and concomitant atrial fibrillation (AF) is unknown. AF patients are treated with oral anticoagulation (OAC) to prevent ischemic stroke and systemic embolism and patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are treated with dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), i.e. aspirin plus …
Early Antiplatelet Administration After Intravenous Thrombolysis for Acute Ischemic Stroke (TREND-IVT)
Stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide, and ischemic stroke is the most frequent type. Intravenous thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator within 4.5 hours of symptom onset is the most effective therapy for patients with acute ischemic stroke. However, ischemic stroke progression and early reocclusion are not …
Integrated Approach in Frail Older People with Atrial Fibrillation
The study will verify if a structured multidisciplinary approach (called iABC), aimed to improve the appropriate management of elderly AF patients with multimorbidity (the i-ABC group), would provide a clear evidence of an improvement in clinical conditions and quality of life compared to usual clinical care. The i-ABC group in …
GEKO Venous Thromboembolism Prevention Study
This multicentre, randomised geko™ venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention study will prospectively collect clinical data on VTE occurrences in immobile patients after stroke, who will be randomised, on a 1:1 allocation, to receive either standard of care (Intermittent Pneumatic Compression) or geko™ neuromuscular electrostimulation device. The aim is to assess the …
Comprehensive Management of High-risk PopuLatIon of Stroke Based on Social Network
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of social network in improving drug compliance and risk factors control rate of stroke high-risk population after discharge.
High Resolution, High-speed Multimodal Ophthalmic Imaging
Knowledge of the pathogenesis of ocular conditions, a leading cause of blindness, has benefited greatly from recent advances in ophthalmic imaging. However, current clinical imaging systems are limited in resolution, speed, or access to certain structures of the eye. The use of a high-resolution imaging system improves the resolution of …
The Effect and Safety of Combined Anti-platelet Treatment in Acute Ischemic Stroke Due to Large Artery Atherosclerosis
Currently, aspirin plus clopidogrel is considered as a standard acute treatment of ischemic stroke, based on results of CHANCE and POINT trial. However, still a considerable portion of patients showed early stroke recurrence, especially in those with stroke due to large artery atherosclerosis. Cilostazol may have benefit in reducing early …
Precise Antiplatelet THerapy Guided by Platelet Aggregation Function in Ischemic STROKE（PATH-STROKE）
Main objective: To explore the efficacy of precise antiplatelet therapy guided by platelet aggregation function in reducing the incidence of 30 day platelet hyperresponsiveness in patients with non-cardiogenic ischemic stroke. Secondary objective: To explore the efficacy and safety of antiplatelet therapy in patients with non-cardiogenic ischemic stroke under the guidance …
Left Atrial Strain and Cryptogenic Stroke
Cryptogenic stroke is a type of stroke in which the cause of the blood clot cannot be identified, leaving many patients without a clear treatment plan and at high risk for another stroke. Current medical guidelines recommend blood-thinning medication (anticoagulation) only when atrial fibrillation (AF) -an irregular heart rhythm- can …
