To compare clinical outcomes of myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) according to the coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD), evaluated by optical coherence tomography (OCT), invasive and non-invasive coronary physiologic assessment.
Congestive heart failure (CHF) occurs when the heart is weak and not able to effectively pump blood to the body. One of the common manifestations of CHF is fluid overload and swelling of the legs. Diuretics or "water pills" are usually the treatment for fluid overload and leg swelling; however, …
Whereas PCI before TAVR was previously recommended despite its uncertain prognostic role, recent data underline the possibility of a postponed coronary intervention using a commissural alignment technique. This approach allows easy coronary re-engagement through the valve stent frame with a trade off paid of procedure complexity. Considering the prevalence of …
The Primary Objective is to determine if a new nuclear tracer (named 18F-Florbetaben) used with nuclear imaging (PET imaging) can detect inflamed plaque in patients with recent ACS or stroke/TIA.
The issue of valve durability has become one of the most important aspects in the TAVR field in recent years since transcatheter aortic valve replacement has been progressively applied to younger patients with a low co-morbidity burden. The SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA valve represents the last generation of the SAPIEN …
An out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a sudden event where the heart stops beating and a person becomes unresponsive. During this event, vital organs in the body receive no blood flow, causing them to shut down. Without intervention to restart the heart, a person effectively dies. In the UK, around 60,000 …
This study will be conducted in the coronary intensive care unit of Dr. Siyami Ersek Chest, Heart and Vascular Surgery Training and Research Hospital. It aims to investigate the effect of hand fan therapy on ticagrelor-associated dyspnea in patients receiving ticagrelor.
Mitral and tricuspid valve disease represents an increasing challenge in the management of patients with heart failure and other cardiovascular diseases. In recent years, the introduction of transcatheter techniques for valve repair and replacement (TVI) has revolutionised the treatment of these diseases, particularly for patients at high surgical risk or …
The main aim of the research is to investigate whether patients undergoing pulmonary vein isolation with catheter ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) will have lower rates of AF recurrence than those treated by DC cardioversion without an ablation procedure.
Double Sequential External Defibrillation (DSED) represents an alternative treatment of refractory ventricular fibrillation (rVF) in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The procedure consists of two defibrillators that administer shocks at the same time. Currently, the procedure is not initiated before at least three failed attempts with one defibrillator. This can delay …
