Evaluating New Radiation Techniques for Cardiovascular Imaging
Title: Evaluating New Radiation Techniques for Cardiovascular Imaging Background Imaging studies such as computed tomography (CT) scans involve the use of radiation to create the pictures. Heart and blood vessel CT scans can cause high radiation exposure. Different methods of creating CT pictures have been developed to reduce the radiation …
Anatomic Versus Physiologic Guidance for Complete Revascularization With DES Eluting in Patients With CAD
This study is to compare clinical outcomes between quantitative coronary angiography-guided anatomic complete revascularization and fractional flow reserve-guided physiologic complete revascularization in patients with significant coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention with drug eluting stent
Serial Coronary CTA-based Plaque Progression Detection for Management of Coronary Heart Disease
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether a management strategy based on coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) for patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease can improve the LDL-C target achievement rate compared to a traditional management strategy without follow-up CCTA, thereby reducing the incidence of major adverse …
School-based Program for the Prevention of Rheumatic Heart Disease in Endemic Regions
The overall objective of the PREVENT trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of an integrated, school-based program for the prevention of rheumatic heart disease (RHD) in regions with an endemic pattern of RHD. We conduct a stepped wedge cluster randomized trial in randomly selected schools in Nepal and Zambia. The …
Risk Prediction of Disease Progression in Early-Onset Coronary Atherosclerosis
This study is part of a nationwide research project in China that aims to better understand how coronary artery disease develops and progresses in young adults. The study will enroll approximately 10,000 participants aged 45 years or younger who undergo coronary CT scans at multiple hospitals across China. Information collected …
Effectiveness of a School-centered Prevention Program on Prevalence of Latent Rheumatic Heart Disease
The overall objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of a school-centered primary and secondary prevention program on the prevalence of latent rheumatic heart disease among schoolchildren in Nepal, and to investigate the role of socioeconomic and environmental factors in the development and progression of rheumatic heart disease.
Clinical Implementation of a Novel Decision Support Tool in Patients With Ischemic Heart Disease
The PM-Heart algorithm (PMHeartIHD) is an in-house developed software that predict the survival prognosis for the individual patient hospitalized with ischemic heart disease (IHD) after a coronary arteriography has been performed. The software is intended to be used as a clinical decision support system i.e. the calculated survival prognosis is …
Preventing Ischemic Heart Disease With mHealth (Mobile Health), Electronic Decision Support and Community Health Workers
This is a cluster-randomized clinical trial (cRCT) designed to assess the effectiveness of a multicomponent strategy linking key aspects of the cardiovascular disease (CVD) care continuum across three provinces in Argentina using using five primary components: a data management system linking a digital mHealth (mobile health) screening tool used by …
Treatment of Functionally Non-significant Vulnerable Plaques in Patients With Multivessel ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction The VULNERABLE Trial
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.
Interventional Strategy for Non-culprit Lesions With Major Vulnerability Criteria at OCT in Patients With ACS
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 at …
