Effects of Low-dose Ticagrelor vs. Clopidogrel in Stable Patients Undergoing Elective Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
The proposed study aims to assess the antiplatelet effects of more potent oral P2Y12 inhibition with low-dose ticagrelor (60 mg bid) compared with standard of care clopidogrel in patients with a high ABCD-GENE score (≥10). We hypothesize that ticagrelor is associated with better pharmacodynamic effects (i.e., lower platelet reactivity and …
Latvian Early Atherosclerosis Registry
Atherosclerosis and its complications are a global problem. There are several widely known and proven risk factors that promotes atherogenesis in the majority of patients. However, significant proportion of apparently healthy and young patients with cardiovascular disease but yet without recognized atherogenesis promoting risk factors can be observed in clinical …
Etomidate Versus Propofol in CABG Surgery
The objective of this single-blinded randomized controlled interventional clinical trial is to learn about the efficacy and long-term safety of etomidate compared to propofol as an anesthesia induction agent in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. The primary aim of this study is to determine whether patients receiving …
Saphenous Vein as Y-composite Versus Aortocoronary Conduit for CABG
Left internal thoracic artery (LITA) has been acknowledged as the first graft of choice for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). However, it is still not conclusive which one is the best second graft of choice among right internal thoracic artery, radial artery, right gastroepiploic artery, saphenous vein, and etc., as …
Physiological Assessment of Severe Coronary Stenosis for Informing Planned PCI
Traditionally, the severity of a blockage (stenosis) in a coronary artery has been determined by visual angiographic assessment of the diameter of the artery at the level of a blockage compared to a normal healthy area of the same artery. With the advent of invasive physiological testing to assess coronary …
ShOckwave ballooN or Atherectomy With Rotablation in Calcified Coronary Artery Lesions, the SONAR Trial
Percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) is intended to relieve myocardial ischemia by improving blood flow in the epicardial coronary arteries. However, the efficacy of PCI may be compromised by incidental microvascular obstruction and peri-procedural myocardial infarction (PPMI), which occurs in about 10-15% of cases and is associated with increased rates of …
CABG or PCI in Patients With Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
The STICH-SWEDEHEART trial will compare PCI vs CABG for revascularization of patients with HF and LV systolic dysfunction (LV ejection fraction (LVEF) \<40%) and multi-vessel coronary artery disease.
Cross-over Study of Coronary Risk Factors With a Polypill
Open-label, randomized, cross-over study conducted in a single center, applied to patients receiving a polypill with 100 mg of acetyl salicylic acid and different doses of ramipril and atorvastatin for indication of secondary prevention according to clinical practice, with objective of analyzing the level of systolic blood pressure and LDL-cholesterol …
CMR Versus CT in Coronary Artery Disease
CONCORD is a prospective observational study evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and computed tomography with fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) in patients with suspected coronary artery disease, using invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) as the reference standard.
Complementary Investigation of Perfusion and Anatomy Measures of the Heart With MRI and Combined PET/MRI
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the complimentary information of anatomy, perfusion and viability of PET and MR. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: to compare perfusion and anatomy measurements and perfusion related signals from PET and MR imaging and estimate its prognostic values. to …
