Visa-versa! Breaking Instead of Pushing the Pedals-C
Eccentric muscle work is defined as lengthening of a muscle while applying force. It was shown that with eccentric work, muscles are able to perform four times as much power compared to usual concentric work, which results in huge training gain with a highly decreased oxygen demand and thus lower …
HF vs NIV in Acute Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema
The study's primary aim is to compare the effects of two different ventilation modalities, non-invasive positive-pressure ventilation (NPPV) and high-flow nasal cannulae (HFNC), in the acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema (ACPE) setting, in terms of echocardiographic parameters of RV systolic and RV strain. to determine the differences of the two interventions …
Social Prescribing to Improve Adherence and Outcomes in Women With Heart Failure
Background: Heart Failure (HF) is the second most common cause of hospitalizations for women in North America. Non-adherence to guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) is associated with 50% of all treatment failures and high rates of hospitalizations and death. A recent Canadian study showed that adherence to three or more GDMT …
Safety and Feasibility of the CorVad Percutaneous Ventricular Assist System in Refractory Right Heart Failure
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the CorVad Percutaneous Ventricular Assist System (Device model: CorVad RS) in patients with right heart failure who continue to experience hemodynamic instability despite best medical therapy.
Community-Informed Interventions for Equitable Congestive Heart Failure Management in Primary Care
The purpose of this study is to expand subject matter expertise and sustained capacity for equity-oriented care within the Advanced Care Ecosystem (ACE) by engaging patients, caregivers, community health workers (CHW), and care-team stakeholders in development work focused on adults living with congestive heart failure (CHF) and adverse social determinants …
Cholate Clearance in Fontan and Heart Failure
The goal of this study is to use the HepQuant dual cholate clearance assay, which has been shown to measure liver function in people with known chronic liver conditions, to assess severity of Fontan-associated liver disease (FALD). This study aims to understand the role impaired blood flow to the liver …
Hemodynamic Assessment of underLying myocyTe Function in Right Heart Failure
Right ventricular (RV) failure is recognized to worsen patient outcomes in the setting of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF)-related pulmonary hypertension (PH), yet the investigators fall short in trying to identify and treat it. The current proposal will (1) determine the best clinical indicators of intrinsic RV myocyte …
Remote Ischemic Preconditioning for Renal and Cardiac Protection in Congestive Heart Failure (RICH) Trial
This is a prospective, double-blind, sham-controlled, multicenter, randomized clinical trial is to study the effects of remote ischemic preconditioning on contrast-associated acute kidney injury, functional capacity, and major adverse kidney events in in patients with congestive heart failure undergoing cardiac catheterization and/or percutaneous coronary intervention.
The Impact of Volume Overload on Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Patients With Congestive Heart Failure
The goal of this observational study is to learn how removing extra fluid from the body (diuresis) affects sleep apnea in adults hospitalized with heart failure. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does sleep apnea severity improve after fluid removal? Is the improvement in sleep apnea related to …
Observational Study Designed to Detect Decompensation of Congestive Heart Failure (dCHF) Using a Non-Invasive Wearable Device
This is a prospective, observational pilot study designed to develop a mathematical algorithm capable of predicting decompensation of congestive heart failure (dCHF) using physiologic data collected from a non-invasive wearable device. Participants with a remote hemodynamic pulmonary artery pressure monitor will wear a wearable device continuously for up to 12 …
