OPTIMISER Registry - A Prospective Cohort Study to Describe the OPTIMal Management and Outcomes of PatIents PreSEnting With Acute MyocaRdial Infarction
The purpose of the OPTIMISER Registry is to prospectively and retrospectively collect baseline, clinical and procedural data in patients who present with AMI and are treated with PCI as well as prospectively collect the clinical outcome data. Outcomes will be compared in different clinical subgroups. The impact of PCI in …
Coated or Chewable Aspirin and a Hybrid Strategy to Mitigate Adverse Effects of Air Pollution in Stable Atherosclerotic Disease
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) in adults with active Crohn's disease (CD), particularly in patients with complicated disease such as stricturing disease, enteric fistula, and intra-abdominal abscess. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is …
Comparison of Scores for Early Brain Damage Assessment at Intensive Care Unit Admission After Cardiac Arrest
Even in patients with successful return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), outcome after cardiac arrest remains poor. The overall in-hospital survival rate widely varies both worldwide and across communities, from 1 to 4 folds according to circumstances of arrest and post-resuscitation interventions. Several studies have already shown that early interventions performed …
Neuroprognostication Bias: A Collaboration to Reduce the Impact of Self-fulfilling Prophecy in Cardiac ARrEst
Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in the United States. Mortality rates of cardiac arrest range from 60-85%, and approximately 80% of survivors are initially comatose. Of those who survive, 50% are left with a permanent neurological disability, and only 10% are able to resume their former lifestyle. …
Remote Ischaemic Conditioning in STEMI Patients in AFRICA
The RIC-AFRICA trial is a multi-centre, sham-controlled, randomised controlled trial (RCT) involving 1400 ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients presenting within ≤ 24 hours of myocardial infarction (MI) onset, across approximately 25 sites in 7 African countries (South Africa, Kenya, Sudan, Uganda, Mozambique, Senegal and Mauritius). Patients presenting with STEMI …
Evaluation of Genetic-molecular Causes of Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest: From Patients to Families
The aims are to define the exact prevalence of hereditary heart diseases in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients taking also into account gender, patient and OHCA characteristics, provincial settings and environmental pollution; to stratify the individualized arrhythmic risk of proband's family members to prevent further sudden cardiac deaths; to refine …
Optimal Ventilation for Cardiac Arrest
Pediatric cardiac arrest is a life-threatening problem affecting \>15,000 hospitalized children each year. Less than half of these children survive to hospital discharge, and neurologic morbidity is common among survivors. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the OPTI-VENT bundle to improve survival to discharge with …
Strategies for Defibrillation During Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest
The "Strategies for Defibrillation during Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest" (STRAT-DEFI) trial is an investigator-initiated, individually randomized, 3-group clinical trial comparing standard anterior-lateral pad positioning with anterior-posterior positioning and double sequential defibrillation during adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
Early Amiodarone in Shockable Cardiac Arrest
The primary objective of this pilot, pragmatic stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial is to evaluate if a modified cardiac arrest treatment algorithm calling for the administration of the initial amiodarone dose one 2-minute cycle earlier than current guidelines (during the same cycle as the initial dose of epinephrine) improves the time …
Biomarkers After Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest- a STEPCARE Substudy
A prospective multicenter biomarker study with adult patients treated on intensive care units after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Patients will be recruited from specific sites participating in the Sedation, Temperature and Pressure After Cardiac Arrest and Resuscitation (STEPCARE) trial. (ClinicalTrials.gov ID NCT05564754). Blood samples will be collected at 12, 24, 48, …
