Neuromuscular Fatigue During Exercise in COPD-HF Overlap
Rationale. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and heart failure (HF) coexist in approximately one third of patients presenting with one of these conditions. From a clinical standpoint, impaired tissue oxygen (O2) delivery stands as a common pathological mechanism of these cardiorespiratory diseases. Recent evidence suggest that muscle and cerebral blood …
activeDCM - Interventional Clinical Trial of Individualized Activity and Exercise Programs to Improve Outcome in Dilated Cardiomyopathy Guided by Longitudinal Biosensing With Apple Watch
The influence of an individualized sports program on dilated cardiomyopathy patients will be investigated in a randomized, prospective intervention study. 300 patients with dilated cardiomyopathy are included and examined over a period of 13 months. All participants will receive an Apple Watch, which serves for monitoring of activity and symptoms.The …
Metformin for Pulmonary Hypertension HFpEF
The main objective of this study is to determine the clinical efficacy of metformin versus placebo and the therapeutic response with regards to functional capacity and hemodynamics in PH-HFpEF.
Treating Heart Dysfunction Related to Cancer Therapy With Sacubitril/Valsartan
To determine feasibility of recruitment and tolerability of treatment with sacubitril-valsartan among adult age survivors of cancer diagnosed at or before age 39 who have stage B heart failure.
Improving Medication Adherence Using Family-focused and Literacy-sensitive Strategies
People with heart failure who do not take their medications as prescribed are at high risk of complications leading to hospitalization, death and poor quality of life. In the proposed intervention, nurses will use easy-to-understand language to coach patients and their care partners to help them work together and build …
Home-based Cardiac Rehabilitation With Spot-jogging
The first purpose of this study is to investigate the physiological changes of heart failure patients during cardiopulmonary exercise test with spot jogging and compare them with the standard stationary bike cardiopulmonary exercise test. The second one is to compare the effect between home-based cardiac rehabilitation using different step frequency …
Evaluating the Reach of Clinical Decision Support for Patients With Heart Failure
To work best, clinical decision support tools (CDS) must be timed to provide support when healthcare decisions are made, which includes virtual visits (phone or video). Unfortunately, most CDS tools are either missing from virtual visits or not designed for the unique context of virtual visits (e.g., availability of physical …
IEEM-Heat and Heart Failure
We will test the hypothesis that increasing skin wetness, and thus evaporative cooling, will attenuate the increase in core body temperature and accompanying cardiac stress during heat wave conditions in individuals with congestive heart failure. Secondly, we propose that hand \& forearm cooling (via cool water immersion) will also be …
⁶⁸Ga-FAPI PET/CT for Cardiac Fibrosis in Heart Failure
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome with increasing incidence and prevalence, associated with high morbidity, mortality, and economic impact, despite therapeutic advances. Myocardial fibrosis is a common feature across different pathophysiological processes and plays a key role in HF development, with growing research interest specifically in non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy …
Comparison Between a Robotic Tele-echo-cardiography Technique and a Standard Echocardiography in the Management of Heart Failure in the Guadeloupe Archipelago Between the University Hospital of Guadeloupe and the Marie-Galante Hospital
The TERdeblue-S study is a feasibility study of robotic remote echocardiography, not only in terms of technology but also in terms of its integration into a telemedicine system to improve access to the heart failure management system in the Guadeloupe archipelago. The main objective of this study is to study …
