Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an effective therapeutic strategy in patients with symptomatic heart failure (HF) patients with LVEF of ≤35% and left bundle branch block (LBBB). However, approximately one-third of CRT-recipients do not improve after therapy (non-responders), despite meeting the required criteria. Previous studies have documented that the positive …
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for in-stent restenosis (ISR) accounts for 5-10% of PCI. ISR may be linked to mechanical complications mainly under-expansion (UE), neointimal hyperplasia and/or neoatherosclerosis. International guidelines recommends non-compliant and very-high-pressure balloons, which lead to sub-optimal angiographic and clinical results. Recently, observational studies have suggested the feasibility and …
Background:Following cardiac catheterization and arterial sheath removal, manual compression is applied until bleeding stops, after which a compression belt is used. Patients must lie supine for at least 6 hours, often experiencing discomfort including back pain, eating difficulties, and urinary problems. The compressed leg is restrained to prevent movement, adding …
The present case-control study is designed to investigate the disease characteristics of IR-CAD by comparing the demographics, clinical features, lab results, imaging findings, and prior treatment between 20 patients with IR-CAD and 10 patients with AS-CAD.
Anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA) is a group of rare congenital heart defects with various clinical presentations. The lifetime-risk of an individual living with AAOCA is unknown, and data from multicentre registries are urgently needed to adapt current recommendations and guide optimal patient management. The European Registry …
This is a self-controlled cohort study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of comprehensive treatment in patients with inflammation-associated rapidly-progressive coronary artery disease (IR-CAD) by comparing the study endpoints before treatment with those after treatment in the same group of patients.
This is a prospective, double-blind, sham-controlled, multicenter, randomized clinical trial is to study the effects of remote ischemic preconditioning on contrast-associated acute kidney injury, functional capacity, and major adverse kidney events in in patients with congestive heart failure undergoing cardiac catheterization and/or percutaneous coronary intervention.
A randomised controlled trial to assess the efficacy of staged hybrid ablation when compared with standard catheter ablation in patients with non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) and Heart Failure
This is a cohort study to investigate the clinical features, current treatment and clinical outcomes in patients with inflammation-associated non-rapidly-progressive coronary artery disease (INR-CAD).
PROFILE-HF is a multicenter, observational, prospective study of the clinical course and outcomes of chronic heart failure (HF) and coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The objective of the study is to develop a method for assessing the risk of adverse cardiovascular events in …
