Peri-Procedural Transmural Electrophysiological (EP) Imaging of Scar-Related Ventricular Tachycardia
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) contributes to over 350,000 sudden deaths each year in the US. Malignant VTs involve an electrical "short circuit" in the heart, formed by narrow channels of surviving tissue inside myocardial scar. An important treatment is to use catheter ablation to "block" the channel that forms the circuit. …
Phase 3 Study of KP-100LI in Subjects With Vocal Fold Scar
The purpose of this study is to confirm the efficacy and safety of KP-100LI, a intracordal formulation containing recombinant human dHGF as the active pharmaceutical ingredient, for voice function improvement therapy in patients with vocal fold scar (including vocal fold sulcus).
High Relaxivity Contrast Agent for Cardiac MR in the Myocardial Scar Assessment
Elucirem (Gadopiclenol) is a new macrocyclic gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) with high relaxivity indicated for use in adults and children aged 2 years and older for contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. The product was approved in 2022 by FDA to be used to detect and visualize lesions with abnormal vascularity in …
The Role of Pulsed Dye Laser Therapy in the Management of Burn Scars
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects (good or bad) of pulsed dye laser treatment in burn scar height, texture, redness and pliability in acute burn injury.
The Role of Fractional Vascular Laser Therapy in the Management of Burn Scars
While the literature tends to support the use of laser therapy in the management of burn scars, there is a definite lack of appropriately powered, randomized controlled trials. Laser therapy can be quite expensive when compared to other treatment modalities for burn scars, and while promising, its true usefulness has …
Shock Wave Therapy Versus Conventional Physical Therapy for Partial- Thickness Forearm Burn Scars
Burn injuries can lead to significant physical and psychological challenges, particularly when they result in scarring. Burn scars can lead to a variety of complications that significantly impact a patient's quality of life1. Physical complications often include restricted range of motion and contractures, which can hinder mobility and daily activities, …
The Relationship Between Scar Formation and ESD Depth in Therapy for Gastric Carcinoma
This study is a single-center, prospective, group-controlled clinical trial, aiming to clarify the relationship between the depth of dissection and scar formation in the treatment of early gastric cancer by ESD, and to provide high-quality evidence-based medicine for the treatment of early gastric cancer.
Ablation-Index Guided Scar-Mediated Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation in Patients With Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
Over the last decade, radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) has become an established treatment for ventricular arrhythmias (VA). Due to the challenging nature of visualizing lesion formation in real time and ensuring an effective transmural lesion, different surrogate measures of lesion quality have been used. The Ablation Index (AI) is a …
Effect of Onion Extract Nanoparticle Gel Phonophoresis on Postsurgical Scar of Cesarean Section.
Cesarean section is one of the most common abdominal operations performed on women. The cesarean section rate is rising rapidly and continuously in many parts of the world. The cesarean-section surgery leaves a scar that requires special care. A horizontal skin incision approximately 10-15 cm long is usually performed during …
SCAR Burden of Left Atrium Guided cathEter Ablation sTrategy for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
This is a multicenter, randomized controlled trial to compare the recurrence of 1-year atrial arrhythmia after catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) between pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and PVI with additional left atrial (LA) substrate modification based on the left atrial low-voltage area (LA LVA) in patients with persistent AF …
