Effectiveness of Continuous Glucose Monitoring System Among Cardiac Surgery Patients
The aim of this study is to assess the level of glycemic control and the incidence of surgery-related complications in cardiac patients post-surgery when Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) is utilized, as compared to traditional methods of arterial/venous blood sampling and Point-of-Care Testing (POCT) for glucose monitoring.
Therapy to Maintain Remission in Dilated Cardiomyopathy
One third of patients diagnosed with heart failure demonstrate left ventricular reverse remodelling and recovery of cardiac function following a period of medical therapy. The TRED-HF trial investigated the impact of therapy withdrawal in this cohort and found that 40% of patients relapsed within 6 months of stopping treatment. In …
Accuracy of LAA Occluder Size Selection: CT vs. DSA During Combined AF Ablation and LAA Occlusion
This study is a prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled trial. The subjects are patients scheduled to undergo a combined procedure of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation and left atrial appendage (LAA) occlusion. After signing the informed consent form, the subjects will be randomly assigned to either the cardiac Computed Tomography (CT) group …
Feasibility Study SA of the Supira System for HRPCI
The objective is to assess the feasibility and safety of the Supira System in providing temporary cardiovascular hemodynamic support in patients undergoing high-risk percutaneous interventions (HRPCI).
Exparel vs. Marcaine ESP Block for Post-cardiac Surgical Pain
The goal of this pilot study is to describe and compare Ultrasound-Guided Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) Blocks using Exparel® (bupivacaine liposome injectable suspension) to Marcaine® (bupivacaine hydrochloride) for pain management and outcomes after cardiac surgeries.
The Leadless AV Versus DDD Pacing Study
Cardiac pacemaker (PM) implantation is the established treatment for relevant bradyarrhythmias. Conventional PMs require 1-3 pacing leads to register the heart's intrinsic activity ("sensing") and to deliver the electrical stimuli to the heart ("pacing"). These leads are responsible for the vast majority of morbidity after implantation and PM failures. Therefore, …
Focused Orticumab Research for Treating Inflammation in Coronary Arteries
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the clinical effect of orticumab treatment on inflammation in study participants with prior myocardial infarction who have elevated coronary inflammation based on CCTA. The main question it aims to answer is: Clinical effects of orticumab treatment on inflammation of the coronary …
High Versus Low Dose Serratus Anterior Plane Block After Minimally Invasive Valve Surgery.
This study aims to compare the efficacy and quality of pain relief provided by the high-dose serratus anterior plane (SAP) block with the standard SAP block in preventing and treating acute postoperative pain after total endoscopic aortic or mitral valve surgery.
Breastfeeding Planning Card Trial in Scotland
This study evaluates the efficacy of a "breastfeeding toolkit" card delivered as part of antenatal care in promoting breastfeeding maintenance.
Treatment of Adynamic Bone Disorder With Parathyroid Hormone in Chronic Kidney Disease
This study is a 1:1 randomized controlled trial with an intervention for 18 months and a follow up period of 12 months. The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of recombinant human parathyroid hormone for treatment of adynamic bone disorder in patients with chronic kidney …
