Long-term Beta-blocker Therapy After Acute Myocardial Infarction
The aim of the study is to determine whether discontinuation of β-blocker after at least 1 year of β-blocker therapy is noninferior to continuation of β-blocker in patients without heart failure (HF) or left ventricular systolic dysfunction after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Prospective, open-label, randomized, multicenter, noninferiority trial to determine …
Effects of Bilberry and Oat Intake After Type 2 Diabetes and/or MI
Background Bilberries from Sweden, rich in polyphenols, have shown cholesterol-lowering effects in small studies, and the cholesterol-lowering properties of oats, with abundant beta-glucans and potentially bioactive phytochemicals, are well established. Both may provide cardiometabolic benefits for patients with manifest chronic cardiometabolic disease, such as type 2 diabets mellitus (T2DM) and …
Remote Exercise SWEDEHEART Study
The overall aim of the study is to evaluate if remote video exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation (exCR), offered as an alternative to centre-based exCR, can increase participation in exCR sessions post myocardial infarction (MI).
Feedback Intervention and Treatment Times in ST- Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Part I (Pilot Phase): The purpose of this study is to examine if formalized data assessment and systematic feedback improves treatment times (i.e. contact-to-balloon time and door-to-balloon time) in patients with myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation (STEMI). Part II (Implementation Phase): The Purpose is to prospectively investigate if survival can …
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 …
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 …
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.
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 …
OCT Versus Angiography for Culprit Lesion Revascularization in Acute Myocardial Infarction PatiEnts
The aim of the study is to compare clinical outcomes between optical coherence tomography-guided versus angiography-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
