Vessel Imaging Using Optical Coherence Tomography for Plaque Morphology and Vessel Fractional Flow Reserve
The aim of this prospective, investigator-initiated study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and correlations between mopphometric indices: luminal and qualitative parameters assessed by optical coherence tomography (OCT) including minimal lumen area, plaque type, presence of thin cap fibroatheroma and a functional index - angiography based vessel fractional flow reserve …
Effects of Switching From Cigarettes to Tobacco Heating System on Coronary Atherosclerosis Progression
Objective To evaluate the impact of heated versus combustion tobacco products on progression of atherosclerosis in patients with CAD unable(unwilling) to quit smoking. Rationale Despite the efforts to curb smoking and full awareness of its deleterious health impact, smoking remains a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality. Some health impact …
Antegrade Dissection and Re-entry Versus Retrograde Strategy in CTO PCI
The ADRENALINE trial has been designed as a multi-center, prospective randomized study to compare the procedural and periprocedural outcomes of coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using antegrade dissection and re-entry (ADR) versus retrograde strategy. Beyond the patient-oriented outcomes, the influence of the studied CTO PCI strategies …
Bright Light Exposure in Surgical Patients
Elucidate the influence of intense light therapy pretreatment in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. We hypothesize that intense light exposure is associated with the peripheral stabilization of Per2 in human buccal swabs and plasma samples before surgery and with a decrease of Troponin I levels after surgery. In addition, we hypothesize …
Influence of Pulse Electromagnetic Field Therapy on Myocardial Ischemia
This study is being done to observe the effects of treatment from a device called the Bioboosti which utilizes pulsed electromagnetic waves on its ability to improve blood flow to the heart tissue in individuals with coronary artery disease (CAD).
Selective Coronary Revascularization in Carotid Artery Disease Patients After Carotid Revascularization (SCORECAD Trial)
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether among symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis (CAS) patients with no known coronary artery disease (CAD) who had undergone carotid artery revascularization (endarterectomy of stenting) a strategy of best medical therapy (BMT) plus selective coronary revascularization based on FFRct assessment …
Temporary MCS With the iVAC 2L Transaortic Device in High-risk PCI
Patients with coronary artery disease and undergoing high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are at increased risk of hemodynamic instability and poor outcomes. Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices may offer hemodynamic stabilization during PCI, potentially improving short- and long-term outcomes. The study rationale is to investigate the safety and clinical efficacy …
Influence of Oxygen on Perioperative Outcome in Patients Undergoing General Anaesthesia for Elective Non-cardiac Surgery
The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of supraphysiologic oxygen (hyperoxia) on myocardial function in anaesthetized patients undergoing non-cardiac vascular surgery.
Correlation of FFR and iFR With Cardiac PET Perfusion in Patients With Severe Aortic Valve Stenosis
Aortic valve stenosis (AS) affects 2-7% of persons \> 65 years, symptoms include: angina and dyspnea, dizziness and syncope. Coincidence of coronary artery disease (CAD), also presenting with angina and dyspnea, in patients with AS between 40 - 65% . Angina in AS caused by significant reduction of coronary flow …
Intrapleural Ropivacaine Infusion in Cardiac Surgery
For many patients, a primary source of postoperative pain following cardiac surgery is the presence of pleural drains, which the surgeon places at the end of the operation and maintains for 1 to 3 days. One promising method of pain management after cardiac surgery is interpleural analgesia, particularly when traditional …
