Heart Attack Research Program- Imaging Study
The HARP study is a multi-center, diagnostic observational study employing standardized imaging protocols in patients with MINOCA (MI with Non Obstructive Coronary Arteries) to determine the underlying diagnosis in each participant. Participants will be followed for recurrent clinical events, every 6 months, for a maximum of 10 years.
Leg Ischaemia Management Collaboration
Single-centre prospective cohort study of patients presenting with severe limb ischaemia (SLI). The primary outcome measure will be 12 month major amputation rate. A historical cohort of patients identified retrospectively will be the comparitor group used to assess the impact of a newly-established rapid-access limb salvage clinic. Primary aim: Determine …
Iron Deficiency in Pediatric Heart Surgery
The prevalence of iron deficiency in pediatric cardiac surgery patients is not very well known. Iron deficiency can lead to anemia, higher transfusion rates and possibly higher complication rates. In this retrospective study, the iron status of all patients undergoing pediatric cardiac surgery at our institution between January 2019 and …
Predictors for Survival and Good Neurological Outcome in E-CPR and Non CPR Treated Patients
In ECPR, where CPR times often range from 30 to 120 minutes, only patients with good circulation during CPR survive, while non-survivors commonly suffer from anoxic brain injury. The selection process during CPR is challenging causing a general survival rate of just 2 out of 10, and the urgent need …
Fetal Assessment of the Myocardium and Evaluation of the Neonate
FAME-n aims to improve perinatal care by introducing new approaches to fetal and neonatal heart assessment. Better identification of high-risk deliveries requiring intervention will reduce perinatal asphyxia-related illness and death. Neonatal hemodynamics may be improved by early detection of instability of the heart and circulation. Innovative use of technology enables …
Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Associated Cardiovascular Adverse Events in Patients With Cancer
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have revolutionized cancer treatment and are now approved for various types of cancer. The most common side effects of ICI are immune-related adverse events which can affect any organ or system in the body. Recently, concerns have also risen about cardiovascular effects of ICI. Retrospective studies …
Phenotyping Heterogeneity and Regionality of the Aorta
The aorta distributes cardiac stroke volume into the whole body through its finetuned conductance function, that is propagation and modulation of flow pattern. Physicomechanic properties of the aortic wall assure continuous and homogenous blood flow distribution to organs. The physicomechanic properties of the aortic wall are heterotopic: The collagen/elastin ratio …
Implementing Spiritual Care in Inpatient Palliative Care
The goal of this observational study is to is to ascertain the spiritual needs of palliative patients in a standardized manner using the Spiritual Needs Questionnaire and to promptly address those needs by (specialized) spiritual care. To determine whether the effort of implementing the Spiritual Needs Questionnaire on a sustainable …
Chronical Illness-related Limitations of the Ability to Cope With Rising Temperatures, Third Wave
The CLIMATE-III Observational Study examines to what extent chronically ill patients experience adverse health effects because of heat and whether the patients' specific health behavior, somatosensory amplification, risk and benefit perception, self-efficacy, health literacy, and the degree of urbanisation of the patients' administration district are associated with these effects. Study …
Sepsis in the ICU-II
Sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction (SIMD) is a well-known phenomenon yet its diagnosis remains elusive with no accepted definition, or defining pathophysiological mechanism associated with this disease. Systolic dysfunction occurs in 20-70% of patients, and may be severe, yet does not appear to have any prognostic value for mortality. Diastolic function has …
