DEBSCAN-IVL. Drug Eluting Balloon or Drug Eluting Stent to Treat CAlcified Nodules After IntraVascular Lithotripsy.
International, investigator-driven, multicenter, open-label, prospective randomized controlled trial where patients with de novo lesions due to calcified nodules (CN) were randomized to drug eluting balloon (DEB) or drug eluting stents (DES).
Intravascular Lithotripsy With or Without Rotational Atherectomy for Coronary Calcified Nodule Treatment
The NODULE-SHOCK trial is a prospective, investigator-initiated, single-center, randomized controlled trial designed to compare the efficacy of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) with or without rotational atherectomy (RA) in patients with coronary calcified nodules (Cohort A), and operator-determined vs maximum IVL pulses in patients with non-nodular severe coronary calcium (Cohort B).
Influence of Vessel Wall Calcification on Early Stent Strut Healing
To assess the influence of superficial calcium on the early endothelialization (1 month) of the struts of the Xience Skypoint stent (comparing struts with underlying superficial calcium to struts without underlying calcification)
IVUS Guided PCI in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease
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 …
Clinical and Biochemical Effects of a Defined Plant-Based Diet on Heart Disease
A plant-based diet will be utilized in the treatment of coronary artery disease.
Drug-Coated Balloon in Native Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
The IMAGINATION trial is an investigator-initiated, prospective, single-center study of symptomatic patients with a native chronic total occlusion (CTO) undergoing intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with a drug-coated balloon (DCB). Post-PCI IVUS and fractional flow reserve (FFR) at baseline and at 6-months follow-up will be performed. In addition, …
Safety and Efficacy of Meplazumab in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease
The development of coronary atherosclerosis is closely related to inflammation, and CD147 may play an important role in its process. The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of long-term administration of mepolizumab (humanized anti-CD147 antibody) on lipid deposition and inflammation in coronary atherosclerotic plaques in patients with high-risk …
Customizable Respiratory Exercise Device in Individuals Who Have Undergone Cardiac Surgery
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 …
Switching From Dual Antiplatelet Therapy to Monotherapy With Potent P2Y12 Inhibitors
Ticagrelor currently represents the most tested and commonly used P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy following percutaneous coronary intervention. The purpose of this study is to conduct a head-to-head comparison on the pharmacodynamic efficacy of ticagrelor-based and prasugrel-based single antiplatelet therapy. To determine if the PD profiles of ticagrelor- and prasugrel-based SAPT are …
Drug-Coated Balloon Versus Drug-eluting Stent Angioplasty for Treatment of Chronic Total Occlusion - The DCB-CTO Trial
Chronic total occlusion (CTO) remains one of the most challenging lesions in coronary artery disease management. Percutaneous coronary intervention using drug-eluting stents is currently a standard treatment approach; however, drug-coated balloon angioplasty has emerged as a potential alternative strategy. This study aims to compare the clinical and angiographic outcomes of …
