Active clinical trials for "Ischemia"

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the plasticity of autologous intrathecal hematopoietic cells would improve the neurologic evolution of the pediatric patients with hypoxic/ischemic brain injury.

Prospective, randomized, controlled, single-blinded, parallel two-arm, multicenter trial. Test arm: XIENCE V® Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System(stent length: 18mm, diameter: 3.0mm) Control arm: Metallic stent (MULTI-LINK VISION® metallic stent(stent length: 18mm, diameter: 3.0mm) Follow-up angiographic imaging and intra vascular ultra sound (IVUS) at 180 days and 1 year

Injections of concentrated bone marrow mononuclear cells into ischemic tissues will result in vasculogenesis

The purpose of this study is to see if early INTEGRILIN® (eptifibatide) therapy in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (ACS) reduces the occurence of death, heart attack and urgent cardiac intervention (surgery) compared to placebo (with delayed provisional use of eptifibatide).

This is a research study of head cooling. Its goal is to determine whether cooling babies' heads can reduce or prevent brain damage that may have resulted from temporarily reduced oxygen supply to the brain. In this study, half of the babies (selected at random) will have a special cooling cap with circulating water placed on their head for 72 hours to lower the temperature of their brain. The rest of the baby's body will be maintained at a defined temperature by a standard overhead radiant heater. The study protocol includes the taking and analysis of blood samples, performance of brain wave tests, imaging of the brain by ultrasound, and other tests as clinically indicated. Neurodevelopmental outcome will also be assessed at 18 months of age.

This study examines the potential benefits of a home stimulation program to treat infants who have suffered from brain asphyxiation (lack of oxygen). The program involves one year of stimulatory activities. Progress will be evaluated through neurological and behavioral exams.

This study proposes ischemic preconditioning (IPC) as a novel intervention to improve walking distance in patients with intermittent claudication.

This study aims at identifying the etiology of troponin-T elevations in patients with atrial fibrillation visiting the emergency department.

The objective of this post-approval study is to confirm that the clinical performance of the Orsiro stent in a real-world setting is similar to the clinical performance observed for Orsiro in the BIOFLOW-V Investigational Device Exemption pivotal trial, as a condition of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval (P170030).

Thrombolysis and endovascular thrombectomy are the most efficient treatments for acute ischemic stroke patients in time window. However, sufficient recanalization (mTICI2b-3) can 't be acquired in all patients under thrombectomy. The EXTEND-IA TNK study indicated that tenecteplase before thrombectomy was associated with a higher incidence of reperfusion and better functional outcome than alteplase among patients with ischemic stroke treated within 4.5 hours after symptom onset. This study intends to explore whether a combination of thrombectomy and intra-arterial TNK administration can increase recanalization rate after the first attempt of thrombectomy device pass for ischemic Stroke.
