Clinical Outcome and Cost-effectiveness of Reduced Noradrenaline by Using a Lower Blood Pressure Target in Patients With Cardiogenic Shock From Acute Myocardial Infarction
Rationale: Pump failure due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) can lead to cardiogenic shock (CS): a state of low blood flow to end-organs with subsequent multi-organ failure that is associated with high mortality rated. The first line pharmacologic treatment strategy in CS is noradrenaline. This vasopressor drug is used to …
Vascular Events In Patients Undergoing Same-day Noncardiac Surgery (VALIANCE) Study
The proportion of noncardiac surgeries performed as same-day surgery is increasing worldwide, with more complex surgeries being performed on higher risk patients in the outpatient setting. Little is known on the risk factors, incidence and prognosis of patients undergoing same-day noncardiac surgery. The main objective of this study is to …
Disparities in Myocardial Infarction Remodeling According to Gender
Following myocardial infarction, female individuals demonstrate a poorer prognosis, characterized by elevated rates of mortality and heart failure. A primary hypothesis suggests unfavorable cardiac remodeling in women. This remodeling, defined as alterations in cardiac size and shape post-infarction, necessitates repeated non-invasive imaging for study.
TIRANA-ACS: A Prospective Registry Study for the Targeted Investigation of Residual Inflammation After Non-ST/ ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome
This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the prognostic significance of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) as a predictor of mortality in patients following an episode of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). Despite advancements in interventional cardiology and medical therapy, mortality remains significant in post-ACS patients, and early risk stratification is essential …
Echocardiography Versus no Echocardiography in S. Aureus Bacteraemia and VIRSTA Score < 3
Staphylococcus aureus is the most frequent cause of both healthcare-associated and community-acquired bloodstream infections worldwide. Infective endocarditis (IE) has been detected in 5-17% of cases and is a determinant of poor prognosis. The investigators developed a score (the VIRSTA score) based on patients' characteristics to rule out IE with high …
Aspirin Continuation or Interruption in Patients at Moderate Risk for Cardiovascular Events Undergoing Colonoscopy and/or Polypectomy
One in 4 adults between 50 and 80 reports taking regular aspirin. The prevalence of aspirin uses increases with age as well as co-morbid vascular diseases. Patients with cardiovascular diseases are at risk of developing colorectal neoplasms. In patients undergoing screening colonoscopy, interruption of aspirin is believed to be associated …
A Danish ICD-study in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease Resuscitated from Ventricular Fibrillation
DanICD is a randomized, controlled study to with the aim to assess whether there is a benefit of ICD-implantation in patients with coronary artery disease (including acute myocardial infarction), who survive cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation/sustained ventricular tachycardia and undergo revascularization and with an LVEF above 35%.
Low Dose Rosuvastatin Plus Ezetimibe Versus High-dose Rosuvastatin in AMI
Combination therapy of rosuvastatin 5mg and ezetimibe 10 mg showed similar achievement rate in decreasing LDL cholesterol level by 50% as single use of rosuvastatin 20 mg. This trial aims to prove non-inferiority of concomitant usage of low dose rosuvastatin and ezetimibe among patients with acute myocardial infarction who went …
Aggressive Smoking Cessation Trial (ASAP)
The ASAP Trial is a 5-year, multi-centre, randomized controlled trial that will assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of aggressive smoking cessation therapy among people at elevated cardiovascular risk. It will recruit 798 adult patients smoking on average at least 10 conventional (tobacco) cigarettes per day who are motivated to …
Biobank for "Arrhythmia and Conduction Disorders: TowArd Pathophysiology Based Treatment"
The 'ADAPT' Biobank is a collection of body material and data from patients with or at risk of cardiac arrhythmias who underwent or will undergo (non-) invasive treatment for this disease. Its main objective is to obtain a comprehensive collection of patient information and material to facilitate research and gain …
