This is a prospective, single-center, single-blind, two-arm, 1:1 randomized clinical trial. Patients who have undergone successful elective PCI will be screened with a lipid profile and eligible patients will be enrolled. Non-eligible patients will be enrolled in a registry. Randomization will be stratified by baseline LDL-C level and current statin therapy…
We are working with researchers at Columbia University to test whether text messaging can be used effectively to help people with hypertension to control their blood pressure. If you are between the ages of 18 and 85 years and have a cell phone, you may be eligible to participate in this study. The study would involve a telephone call that would last about…
This is a Prospective, multicenter, randomized, parallel-controlled, open-label two-arm trial with an adaptive design that will randomize about 1252 subjects at approximately 120 US and international centers. The study is looking to see if a device called the Impella device will improve the way the heart works as well as if health is improved as compared to…
The primary objective is to demonstrate that physiologically-guided stenting using the Philips SyncVision iFR co-registration is superior with respect to clinical outcomes compared to PCI guided by angiography alone. Secondary objectives include: To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of physiology guidance with SyncVision compared to a standard of care PCI…
We are conducting a research study in adults to test whether blood pressure (BP) measured in a clinic setting without a technician present is comparable to blood pressure levels while awake outside of the clinic on an Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) device. We will also test whether asleep blood pressure can be accurately determined using a home…
We are currently looking for men and non-pregnant women aged 40 years and above to participate in an at-home study on sleep and activity patterns in relation to blood pressure and blood glucose. Participants should not have critical/severe illness and should not be on dialysis or have a pacemaker or other implanted medical device. You must be willing to…
This study is trying to determine if using a Dynamic Coronary Roadmap (which is a software used along with an x-ray imaging system) reduces the total iodine contrast volume per Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) procedure compared to procedures performed without Dynamic Coronary Roadmap. This X-ray system provides imaging support while directing the…
RADIANCE II is a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, single cohort study designed todemonstrate the effectiveness (how well it works) and safety of the Paradise Renal Denervation System in hypertensive subjects (subjects with high blood pressure).
The purpose of this project is to collect more data about the safety and effectiveness of renal denervation (disabling of kidney nerves) for the treatment of uncontrolled hypertension. For therenal denervation procedure, the Vessix Renal Denervation System is used. The system consists of a catheter (a thin tube) and a radio frequency (RF) generator (power…
A study evaluating the placement of any guidewire beyond complex narrowed arteries that are relatively common in patients undergoing ballon angioplasty (a procedure where a balloon is used to stretch open narrowed arteries). At least one Teleflex guidewire and at least one Turnpike catheter is used. The guidewires and catheters that are being studied are…
The Saranas Early Bird Bleed The Saranas study uses a device is called the Early Bird Bleed Monitoring System (EBBMS) and it is intended to provide physicians with an early indication of a potential internal bleeding complication due to vessel injury that may occur during the procedure before any symptoms present.
This study has been designed to treat patient with coronary artery disease and demonstrate the superiority of the OCT device used to select and guide the stenting procedure when collecting images and flow measures inside the blocked artery.
The purpose of this study is to find out more about how physical activity monitors can help assess patients with pulmonary hypertension. We hope to find a relationship between the data on physical activity monitors and the tests that routinely done in patients with pulmonary hypertension.
This is a research study designed to look at the safety and effectiveness of the TriGUARD 3 cerebral embolic protection device in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The purpose of the study is to assess whether the TriGUARD 3 can prevent death, stroke, more subtle signs of brain injury, and/or silent brain injury as measured…
The study has been designed to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of the Paradise Renal Denervation System when treating patients with high blood pressure known as hypertension. When blood pressure is persistently elevated and pushes against the walls of the artery over a long period of time it is known to cause Hypertension. The Paradise Renal Denervation…
The purpose of this study is to collect data for evaluating VFR (Virtual Flow Reserve) in comparison with standard FFR (Fractional Flow Reserve) when patients undergo a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to treat blockage or narrowing in the heart artery or arteries.
