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 learn whether the antiarrhythmic drug flecainide can be used as safely as standard rhythm-control drugs in people with atrial fibrillation (AF) and stable coronary artery disease (CAD). The study includes adults aged 18 years and older who have AF and known but …
The aim of the Naples PCI registry is to collect prospective data on baseline clinical, laboratory, and angiographic characteristics of patients undergoing PCI for acute or chronic coronary artery disease. All patients receive clinical follow-up at hospital discharge and at 1-year follow-up with the objective to assess clinical outcomes, including …
Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is a widely accepted initial diagnostic test for individuals suspected of having chronic coronary syndromes. However, there is limited evidence supporting its use in the acute setting. So far, no large-scale randomized trial has examined the performance of CCTA as an alternative to invasive coronary …
This study is a prospective, single center cohort study that primarily registers the clinical characteristics, outcomes, and influencing factors of patients with different types of cardiovascular diseases. Evaluate multiple examination indicators of patients at baseline, 1 year and longer, and follow up on the incidence of major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular …
In one of the most severe congenital heart defects, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), the left ventricle is underdeveloped and the prognosis is worse than in most other heart defects. The underdevelopment can occur gradually during fetal growth caused by a narrowing of the aortic valve. At some international centers, …
