Role of Endomyocardial Biopsy and Aetiology-based Treatment in Pediatric Patients with Inflammatory Heart Disease in Arrhythmic and Non-arrhythmic Clinical Presentations: an Integrated Approach for the Optimal Diagnostic and Therapeutic Management (MYOPED)
Myocarditis is a complex inflammatory disease, usually occurring secondary to viral infections, autoimmune processes or toxic agents. Clinical presentations are multiple, including chest-pain, heart failure and a broad spectrum of arrhythmias. In turn, outcome is largely unpredictable, ranging from mild self-limiting disease, to chronic stage and progressive evolution towards dilated …
Implementation of a Standardized Algorithm for Coronary Calcification With Plaque Modification
In this study, the doctors will follow a set of rules that is called an algorithm. An algorithm is a step-by-step approach that doctors use to guide them when making decisions about the best way to treat their patients. Algorithms are useful because they help doctors decide on the best …
Predicting the Risk of Non-culprit Coronary Artery Disease After a Heart Attack
Heart attacks caused by the complete blockage of a heart artery are treated by opening it with a stent. However, most people will also have 'non-culprit' narrowings found in their other arteries at this time. Although in general people do better if these non-culprit narrowings are also treated with stents …
Suppressive Antibiotic Therapy for Endocarditis
Endocarditis are deadly infections, which nowadays occurs mainly among older patients with multiple comorbidities. The incidence is notably high among patients with valvular prosthetic or implantable devices. Management of such situation usually requires intravenous antibiotic therapy along with removal of the infected prosthetic or device. However, such invasive procedures and …
Clinical and Diagnostic Features of Endocarditis
The burden of endocarditis has changed in the last years due to an increase in percutaneous valve procedures offered to a more fragile, and old population. Therefore an update in epidemiology data is necessary. The Observational prospective multicenter study to characterize the cLinical ANd DiagnoStiC feAtures of endocarditis in the …
Evaluation of Home-based Sensor System to Detect Health Decompensation in Elderly Patients With History of CHF
Sensorum Health (Sensorum) is conducting a pilot study to determine if Sensorum's proprietary passive sensor network can be used to identify signals of early health decompensation in subjects prior to a hospitalization for chronic disease exacerbation or other ambulatory care sensitive conditions. Successful early detection would provide a window of …
Pulmonary Determinants of Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Fontan Patients
This study will examine and record the patient's medical information and medical records (patient files, computer records, etc.). Physical examination, echocardiographic, electrocardiographic, laboratory, radiological, etc. evaluations are made during the routine controls of the patients. Within the scope of this study, no attempt will be made on the patients, no …
the "Level of Resilience" Influencing Self-care in Heart Failure Patients
Adaptation to the new health condition and self-care skills allow people to be able to adhere to the therapeutic treatment in the most correct way possible, but there are many cases in which subjects do not show adherence to it, and for this reason the risk increases to manifest acute …
iFR Guided Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery
The expected outcome of better and improved patency of bypass grafts and its direct relation to pre-operative iFR measurements of stenosis as compared to direct visual physiology of stenosis in the coronary angiogram. To establish the correlation between the use of intracoronary physiology and improved graft patency at 12 months …
Epitranscriptomic Blood Biomarkers for Coronary Artery Disease - A Prospective Cohort Study (IHD-EPITRAN)
Despite advancements in medical care, ischemic heart disease (IHD) remains the leading global cause of death. IHD develops through lipid accumulation into the coronary arteries with subsequent formation of larger atherogenic plaques. During myocardial infarction (MI), a plaque ruptures and subsequent occlusion leads to a death of the heart muscle. …
