Reduced Antithrombotic Strategy for High Bleeding Risk Patients With Myocardial Infarction
Rationale: Heart attacks are a major cause of death and result from coronary blood clots that require acute coronary intervention and antithrombotic drugs to restore blood flow and prevent new heart attacks. Over time, more potent antithrombotic drugs have been introduced like prasugrel and ticagrelor. These drugs have replaced the …
The Effect of Dual Eradication Therapy vs PPI on Gastrointestinal Bleeding in ACS Patients
Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) require routine treatment with dual antiplatelet (DAPT) treatment, but with the high risk of bleeding, gastrointestinal bleeding is the most common type of major bleeding. Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection is a high-risk factor for gastrointestinal bleeding, with an incidence …
Assessment of an Early De-Escalation to a Low-potency Single Antiplatelet Therapy Guided by Genetics Versus a Systematic High-Potency Single Antiplatelet Therapy to Neutralize Bleeding Complications in Patients With High Bleeding Risk Beyond One Month After an Acute Coronary Syndrome
Patients who suffered from acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are usually treated with a long-term dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) to reduce stent thrombosis and recurrent ischemic event. Nonetheless, recent important data have demonstrated the efficacy of a short term DAPT and an early single antiplatelet therapy in high bleeding and ischemic …
Intrathrombus Thrombolysis Versus Aspiration Thrombectomy During Primary PCI
This is an multicenter, randomized, controlled, parallel group study. ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) patients with high thrombus burden(HTB) will be allocated to one of the following: intrathrombus thrombolysis or manual aspiration thrombectomy during primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PPCI).
Pragmatic Randomised Trial of the ESC 0/1 Versus 0/3 Hour Troponin Pathway
The primary objective of this study is to assess the feasibility and impact of implementing the ESC 0-1 hour high sensitive troponin pathway in clinical practice and with specific reference to the 0-3 hour pathway currently in use. The principal outcome measure will be the safety of the 0-1 hour …
Clinical Outcome and Cost-effectiveness of Reduced Noradrenaline by Using a Lower Blood Pressure Target in Patients With Cardiogenic Shock From Acute Myocardial Infarction
Rationale: Pump failure due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) can lead to cardiogenic shock (CS): a state of low blood flow to end-organs with subsequent multi-organ failure that is associated with high mortality rated. The first line pharmacologic treatment strategy in CS is noradrenaline. This vasopressor drug is used to …
Disparities in Myocardial Infarction Remodeling According to Gender
Following myocardial infarction, female individuals demonstrate a poorer prognosis, characterized by elevated rates of mortality and heart failure. A primary hypothesis suggests unfavorable cardiac remodeling in women. This remodeling, defined as alterations in cardiac size and shape post-infarction, necessitates repeated non-invasive imaging for study.
The North Kynouria Project
The North Kynouria Project was initiated to study cardiovascular/stroke risk factors by employing mass screening and long-term surveillance of an adult population in the municipality of North Kynouria, in the county of Arcadia, Peloponnese, Greece. The North Kynouria Study was initiated to assess modifiable and non-modifiable determinants of cerebrovascular and …
Aggressive Smoking Cessation Trial (ASAP)
The ASAP Trial is a 5-year, multi-centre, randomized controlled trial that will assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of aggressive smoking cessation therapy among people at elevated cardiovascular risk. It will recruit 798 adult patients smoking on average at least 10 conventional (tobacco) cigarettes per day who are motivated to …
Low Dose Rosuvastatin Plus Ezetimibe Versus High-dose Rosuvastatin in AMI
Combination therapy of rosuvastatin 5mg and ezetimibe 10 mg showed similar achievement rate in decreasing LDL cholesterol level by 50% as single use of rosuvastatin 20 mg. This trial aims to prove non-inferiority of concomitant usage of low dose rosuvastatin and ezetimibe among patients with acute myocardial infarction who went …
