Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Stress-perfusion Study in Patinets with Fontan Circulation
Univentricular heart (UVH) is a severe congenital heart disease. Accurate advanced non-invasive diagnostic methods is limited. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging has evolved as a particularly useful tool for the study of patients with adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) considering its ability to determine detailed anatomy and detect early cardiac …
Myocardial Mechanisms in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
The purpose of this study is to identify changes in heart tissue structure and biological function in patients with heart failure by performing an endomyocardial biopsy (EMB or heart biopsy) during a right heart catheterization (RHC). The ultimate goal is to use this information to develop new treatments for heart …
Changes in Skeletal Muscle Thickness in Patients With Acute Heart Failure
This study aims to determine, via skeletal muscle ultrasound (US), the extent, timing and relationship between skeletal muscle mass loss and outcomes after orthotropic heart transplantation (OHT) and left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation amongst patients with cardiogenic shock. Advanced therapies such as OHT and VADs in the heart failure …
Association Between the Sit-To-Stand Test and the Prognosis of Patients With Heart Failure
Introduction: Heart failure (HF), among cardiovascular diseases, is the disease that has been increasing its incidence and prevalence the most in recent years in the world population, due to the aging of the population. In addition, HF is the most frequent hospital diagnosis in the elderly, and is the main …
Heart Failure and Aortic Stenosis Transcriptome
This study is aimed to investigate the global transcriptome in order to determine the expression profile of messenger RNAs (mRNAs), as well as long noncoding- (lncRNAs) and micro noncoding-RNAs (miRNAs) in heart failure (HF) and in aortic stenosis (AS). The aim is to clarify their role in cardiac disease pathogenesis, …
Cancer Therapy Effects on the Heart
Anthracycline chemotherapies (e.g. doxorubicin, daunorubicin) are commonly given to treat pediatric cancer, and carry a risk of cardiotoxicity. Over the long term, children who receive these therapies have an increased risk of heart failure and early cardiovascular death. However, current strategies for identifying patients who are at risk prior to …
The Role of Cardiac Mechanics, Biomarkers and Frailty in Aortic Stenosis
The role of cardiac mechanics, circulating biomarkers and frailty in predicting outcomes in patients with aortic stenosis after aortic valve replacement (SCRABLES -The 2-Parts Study) Part I: Observational study to characterize phenotypes, structural alterations and biomarkers profiles in a broad spectrum of patients with aortic stenosis and heart failure with …
In Search of Best Practices for Patients With Heart Failure and Secondary Mitral Regurgitation: An Evaluation of the Inova Heart Failure Treatment Algorithm
The overarching goal of this research proposal is to study the feasibility and clinical impact of implementing an Inova system-wide heart failure treatment algorithm for patients with symptomatic heart failure due to reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFreF) and secondary MR Aim is to check the effectiveness of the IHFTA …
Impact of COVID19 Outbreak in Cardiac Acute Care
This registry will evaluate the impact of the COVID19 outbreak on Cardiac patients admitted in the Intensive Care Unit of the Pitie-Salpetriere Hospital in Paris, France
NIVIA-Hemodynamics
This is an investigator-initiated, single-center, single-arm prospective study to compare non-invasive hemodynamic assessment using transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and lung ultrasound (LUS) and hemodynamic assessment using PAC. Patients who have been hemodynamically assessed using PAC will be invited to participate. Each patient will undergo TTE and LUS immediately after first invasive …
