CCM and Implementation of Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy in Patients With Heart Failure (Fix-GDMT-HF)
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of Cardiac Contractility Modulation (CCM) therapy on the initiation and up-titration of Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy (GDMT) in patients with heart failure (HF). This will be assessed by the change in Quad Medication Score (QMS) from baseline (pre-CCM) to 6-month …
Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential in Heart Failure.
This study is part of the Rico Macro-Project, a multidisciplinary research program promoted by FROM in collaboration with the ASST-PG23 and ATS Bergamo, aiming to investigate the role of clonal hematopoiesis on inflammation, studying in depth the mechanisms underlying the inflammatory process to determine their correlation with some important pathologies …
Diagnosis of Myocardial Ischemia With MCG Using SPECT as a Reference Standard
This is a prospective clinical study aiming to investigate the efficacy of Magnetocardiography (MCG) in detecting myocardial ischemia in patients of a suspected non-ST-elevation-acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) by using Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) as the gold standard for determining the presence and severity of myocardial ischemia.
Evaluation of the Benefit of Exercise Testing for the Diagnosis of Obstruction in the Coronary Arteries of the Heart
The purpose of this study is to determine whether exercise testing can detect an obstruction in a coronary artery, and, thereby, can avoid performing a coronary imaging in some cases. Patients with a suspicion of coronary artery disease perform an exercise test on an exercise bike with increasing load. EKG, …
A Precision Medicine Approach to Identify Patients Undergoing Elective PCI at Risk of Peri-PCI Myocardial Infarction
Despite the relative safety of PCI with new generation stents, peri-PCI thrombotic complications, including myocardial infarction and myocardial injury, are common in elective PCI, occurring in up to 30% of patients. Importantly, these events are associated with poor prognosis. The risk of peri-PCI myocardial infarction/myocardial injury has been in part …
The COMPLETE Study
The COMPLETE study is a single-centre, investigator-initiated study of patients with an indication for invasive coronary angiography with CCTA performed during the diagnostic evaluation. After identifying the presence of a coronary stenosis, defined as an epicardial lesion >50% stenosis on CCTA, patients eligible for the study will be invited to …
Risk Evaluation by COronary CTA and Artificial intelliGence Based fuNctIonal analyZing tEchniques - I
This study is a multicenter, retrospective imaging study. The study intends to retrospectively enroll patients with acute myocardial infarction who had received coronary CTA in a certain time-window before this event. All coronary CTA will be analyzed by anatomic, functional and radiomic analysis, assisted by artificial intelligence. The purpose of …
Physiological Assessment of Severe Coronary Stenosis for Informing Planned PCI
Traditionally, the severity of a blockage (stenosis) in a coronary artery has been determined by visual angiographic assessment of the diameter of the artery at the level of a blockage compared to a normal healthy area of the same artery. With the advent of invasive physiological testing to assess coronary …
CMR Versus CT in Coronary Artery Disease
CONCORD is a prospective observational study evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and computed tomography with fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) in patients with suspected coronary artery disease, using invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) as the reference standard.
BioFreedom Ultra Registry
Over the past three decades, coronary stent struts have been made progressively thinner. Thin strut drug-eluting stents (DES) performed better than their thicker counterparts in a recent study. Thinner struts discourage abnormal coronary flow after implantation and associated with greater flexibility, deliverability and better clinical outcomes. Lower strut thickness may …
