This clinical investigation will evaluate a novel contactless technology for assessing arterial stiffness and explore its potential in assessment of risk for and development of cardiovascular disease. The main aims of the study are: To assess device and method performance for assessment of arterial stiffness and cardiovascular risk, on a …
The overall goal is to identify trends and longitudinal associations in psychosocial, food-related, and cardiometabolic risk factors that can guide public health priorities and future research needs aimed at reducing cardiovascular-related disparities in Puerto Rico. To this end, investigators will establish 'PROSPECT: Puerto Rico Observational Study of Psychosocial, Environmental, and …
Background Type 2 diabetes is a disease that affects blood sugar levels. Complications can include heart and blood vessel (vascular) diseases. Rates of type 2 diabetes have tripled in children and young adults over the last 40 years. Vascular diseases are also increasing in young people. Objective To learn more …
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is one of the leading causes of death in developed countries. These deaths (more than 5,000 per year in France) are due to hereditary arrhythmias or cardiomyopathies. Early diagnosis of SCD is often achieved through family screening, but the main challenge is to stratify the risk …
The goal of this observational study is to learn about recovery after heart surgery for people with Complex Congenital Heart Disease (CCHD), build a comprehensive data platform for CCHD care across a person's whole life, and create a China-specific quality control system to improve CCHD surgical care. The main questions …
The INTERCLIMA (Interventional Strategy for Non-culprit Lesions With Major Vulnerability Criteria Identified by Optical Coherence Tomography in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome) is a multi-center, prospective, randomized trial of optical coherence tomography (OCT)-based versus physiology-based (i.e. fractional flow reserve\[FFR\]/instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio\[iFR\]/resting full-cycle ratio\[RFR\]) treatment of intermediate (40-70% diameter stenosis), non-culprit …
The study aims to compare a preventive percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) plus optimal medical treatment (OMT) strategy vs. OMT for treatment of non-functionally significant non-culprit lesions presenting with optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings indicative of vulnerable plaque, in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and multivessel disease.
Diseases of the heart and circulation are known as cardiovascular diseases, and they cause over 160,000 deaths each year. Coronary heart disease (CHD) is the most common cardiovascular disease. This is due to a build-up of fatty material, known as atherosclerosis, in the blood vessels supplying blood to the heart …
Background of the study: Percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) have become mainstay treatment for acute coronary artery disease and the number of patients receiving PCI is vastly growing. However, relatively little long-term follow-up studies of large real-world clinical samples exist that have looked at the real-world effects of PCI treatment and …
Prospective clinical study with two parts: PART A: a prospective biomarker-based risk screening study in coronary heart disease (CHD) subjects PART B: a nested randomized clinical trial (RCT) in an enriched subpopulation of high-risk stable CHD subjects PART A: 12 000 subjects with stable CHD PART B: 2000 subjects with …
