The Canadian CABG or PCI in Patients With Ischemic Cardiomyopathy (STICH3C) trial is a prospective, unblinded, international multi-center randomized trial of 754 subjects enrolled in approximately 45 centers comparing revascularization by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) vs. coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with multivessel/left main (LM) coronary artery disease …
Quantitative Flow Ratio (QFR) has shown good diagnostic performance against Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) in several meta-analyses, comparable or even superior to nonhyperemic pressure ratios. However, the reproducibility of QFR is modest and there is high inter- and intra-observer variability even when fairly experienced but non-core lab operators (at least …
Coronary artery disease is the most important cause of death worldwide. Treatment option for coronary artery disease is medical treatment, percutaneous coronary intervention, or coronary artery bypass surgery. Among them, the field of percutaneous coronary intervention is rapidly developing with regard to the improvement of devices, techniques, or medical treatment, …
The registry aims to follow clinically all consecutive patients treated by percutaneous coronary interventions at hospital \& university Fribourg.
The contemporary percutaneous treatment of coronary artery disease typically involves initial lesion preparation with balloon angioplasty, followed by the deployment of a drug-eluting stent (DES) to provide an immediate scaffold and reduce the long-term risk of restenosis. However, stent implantation continues to present notable challenges, primarily due to the metallic …
Clinical trials often employ a composite primary endpoint to increase event rates and enhance trial efficiency. However, analytic approaches to composite endpoints typically assume that the individual components are of similar importance. In practice, a treatment often has different effects on each individual endpoint, leading to uncertainty in interpreting the …
The main objective of the SPARX trial is to compare paclitaxel-coated balloons to with contemporary DES in complex and small coronary artery lesions in patients with NSTEACS or CCS; the co-primary objective is to compare two different paclitaxel-coated balloons, Protégé and Agent, with each other.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare short-term Triple Antithrombotic Therapy (DAPT + Rivaroxaban) followed by DAPT with standard DAPT in selected ACS patients with high ischemic risk. The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether the intervention is effective in reducing ischemic events Whether the intervention …
The purpose of this study is to evaluate long-term effectiveness and safety of patients with coronary disease treated with drug eluting balloon in real world practice.
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is among the leading cause of death and disability. Identification of patients at high risk of cardiovascular events is pivotal. However, current risk stratification based on imaging and known biomarkers is suboptimal. The objective of this proposal is to develop a multicriteria decision model for non-invasive …
