Drug-eluting stents (DES) have been found to reduce the rate of stent restenosis compared to bare metal stents (BMS), but the first generation DES caused an increase in stent thrombosis. The second generation DES, including the Cre8Evo stent, has been designed to address these issues. The Cre8Evo stent is made …
The aim is to determine whether a diagnostic strategy including early coronary computed tomographic angiography in intermediate-risk patients presenting to the Emergency Department with chest pain reduces the composite endpoint of death, readmission because of myocardial infarction or unstable angina requiring revascularization.
The iCorMicA study is a multicentre, prospective, randomised, double-blind, sham-controlled, parallel-group, end-point trial and registry. The investigators seek to determine whether stratified medical therapy guided by an adjunctive interventional diagnostic procedure (IDP) during the invasive management of patients with known or suspected angina but no obstructive coronary artery disease improves …
Cardiac rehabilitation is a medically recommended program for patients with certain heart conditions. It includes exercise training, health education, and counseling. Unfortunately, many patients do not participate in cardiac rehabilitation. Some find it challenging to attend the in-person sessions. This study aims to compare two methods of delivering cardiac rehabilitation: …
Study objectives: To determine the optimal timing of coronary angiography (CAG) in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) complicated by acute decompensated heart failure (AHF). The primary objective of this trial is to test the hypothesis that immediate CAG ≤2 hours after establishment of NSTEMI diagnosis would result in …
The PACO trial is a randomized clinical trial conducted in Heart Centers of Kuopio and Turku university hospitals. The coronary artery disease, aortic valve stenosis and mitral valve insufficiency patients preparing for elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), aortic valve replacement (AVR) or mitral valve repair (MVR) will be randomized …
Background Intravenous (IV) loop-diuretics have been a key component in treating pulmonary edema since the nineteen sixties and has a Class 1 recommendation in the 2021 European Society of Cardiology guidelines for heart failure. Conversely, vasodilation was downgraded in the treatment of acute heart failure due to a lack of …
COMPLETE-2 is a prospective, multi-centre, randomized controlled trial comparing a strategy of physiology-guided complete revascularization to angiography-guided complete revascularization in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD) who have undergone successful culprit lesion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). …
The objective of study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 1 year duration of DAPT after GENOSS® DES Implantation in patients with coronary artery disease according to the complex higher-risk (and indicated) procedure.
This study aims to assess the risk factors and evaluate the long-term outcomes of patients with coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO) treated with percutaneous coronary intervention or medical treatment.
