  1. 16. Studies of platelet function, and effects of aspirin and clopidogrel treatment

    Författare :Christina Perneby; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and clopidogrel is a cornerstone in cardiovascular prevention and lowers cardiovascular mortality and morbidity in patient with coronary artery disease (CAD). Mental stress and physical exertion can trigger acute coronary events and prothrombotic responses to stress may contribute to such triggering. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Invasive treatment of coronary artery disease : Aspects on antithrombotic and percutaneous treatment options

    Författare :Per Grimfjärd; Stefan James; Christoph Varenhorst; P Hedberg; Lene Holmvang; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :PCI; STEMI; stent thrombosis; bivalirudin; heparin; bioresorbable scaffold; cangrelor; drug eluting stent; DES; Cardiology; Kardiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The outcome after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has improved considerably thanks to more effective antithrombotic treatment strategies and improved coronary stents. Stent thrombosis (ST) is a rare complication to PCI associated with considerable mortality and morbidity. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Population-based analyses of incidence, prognostic determinants and outcome of aortic dissection

    Författare :Christian Smedberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Aortic dissection (AD) is a potentially life-threatening disease caused by a tear in the innermost layer of the aortic wall, the intima, resulting in blood flow between the layers of the aortic vessel wall. Main risk factors are hypertension, male sex and smoking. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Platelet inhibition and secondary prevention in cardiac surgery patients

    Författare :Erik Björklund; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; coronary artery bypass grafting; secondary prevention; bleeding complications; impedance aggregometry;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Background and objective Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is the most common cardiac surgery procedure. Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) reduces the risk for ischaemic events in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) but increases the bleeding risk, both for spontaneous bleedings and procedure-related bleedings for the subset of ACS patients undergoing urgent CABG.

  7. 20. Person-centred, nurse-led follow-up programme after surgical treatment for intermittent claudication

    Författare :Sara Tibebeslassie Haile; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Intermittent Claudication (IC) is a common symptom of peripheral arterial disease with a prevalence of 5-10% among people 70 years of age or older. The symptoms of IC are discomfort or pain in the lower extremities, which is induced by exercise and relieved by short rest. LÄS MER
