Treatment of congestion is one of the main goals in patients hospitalized for acute heart failure. Nevertheless, current evidence shows that decongestion is often not achieved and that residual congestion at discharge is strongly associated with poor outcomes. While this association has been demonstrated, previous studies have primarily focused on …
This is a randomised controlled trial aimed to demonstrate the effect of cardiac extracorporeal shock wave therapy (CSWT) on the angiogenesis effect of myocardium by determining myocardial perfusion and left ventricular function in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) when measured by cardiac MRI before and after the treatment.
Atherosclerosis and its complications are a global problem. There are several widely known and proven risk factors that promotes atherogenesis in the majority of patients. However, significant proportion of apparently healthy and young patients with cardiovascular disease but yet without recognized atherogenesis promoting risk factors can be observed in clinical …
The cardiorespiratory system integrates systemic and pulmonary circulation while ensuring adequate oxygenation of the body at rest and during exercise. In addition to chronic respiratory problems that mainly affect the lungs, airways and pulmonary vascular system, respiratory capacity and respiratory muscle strength can be negatively affected in a wide spectrum …
Effects of inclisiran + statins vs. statins on the morphology and vascular function of coronary vulnerable plaques, in order to provide a better treatment and more detailed imaging basis for the treatment of coronary vulnerable plaques.
Randomized, controlled, open and multicenter study that analyzes the vasomotor function 8 months after use of the drug-eluting balloon (DCB) vs. drug-eluting stent (DES) in vessels ≥ 3.5 mm
Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with low-dose aspirin and a P2Y12 inhibitor is the current standard of care in patients with coronary artery disease experiencing an acute event or undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. However, the ischemic benefits are counterbalanced by a significant increase in bleeding events. Over time, different DAPT de-escalation …
This study evaluates the diagnostic accuracy and limitations of photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) in characterizing coronary plaque, with comparisons to optical coherence tomography (OCT) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). The objective is to assess whether cardiac ultra-high resolution (UHR) PCCT -with its improved spatial resolution and superior soft tissue contrast relative …
The incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is high (\> 25%) in patients with severe chronic renal disease (CKD) who undergo a percutaneous coronary procedure. The development of CIN is a factor of poor prognosis and is associated with the occurrence of irreversible CKD, the need for dialysis, increased length of …
This clinical trial is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, target-value study to verify the safety and efficacy of BM coronary shockwave devices for the treatment of coronary calcification lesions.
