Strategy for Prompt and Effective Thoracentesis in the Emergency Department
The SPEEDTAP-trial is a prospective, randomised, investigator-initiated, multicenter, clinical superior trial investigating two thoracentesis methods in four emergency departments (ED) in Central Denmark Region. Patients are randomised to either manual fluid removal in the ED or passively fluid drainage using gravity in the radiology department (standard of care). Primary outcome: …
Quantifying New Heart Muscle Cells
Regenerative therapies could provide new ways of treating heart failure. Unlike many organs in the human body, such as the skin and the GI tract, the ability to regenerate heart muscle decreases after birth, but the precise timing of this decrease and how this decrease is altered in heart disease …
EVOLVING AZIMUTH IN MUSA CONTEXT
Non-pharmacological, randomized, nonprofit medical device intervention. The study aims to identify the positive impacts (co-creation), and negative impacts (co-destruction), resulting from the use of telemedicine, and, in particular, the telemonitoring service for patients with heart failure
Reducing Right Ventricular Failure in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (RELIEVE-PAH)
The objectives of the RELIEVE-PAH study are to obtain first-in-human experience with the study device in patients with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension, including evidence of initial safety, device performance and possible signals of clinical effectiveness.
Baduanjin-eight-silken-movement With Self-efficacy Building for Patients With Chronic Heart Failure (BESMILE-HF Study)
Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a major and growing public health problem and poses economic burden on the society. There is a need for a safe, equipment-free, low-cost, and easily implemented exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation program for CHF patients in China. Baduanjin exercise, translated as 'eight silken movements', is one of …
A SkeleTal Muscle Recovery Intervention With Dietary Protein in Heart Failure
Severe skeletal wasting and catabolic weight loss are highly common among patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). This prospective randomized controlled trial will compare changes in the muscle mass in the arms and the legs (appendicular lean mass) in patients with HFrEF randomized between 3 groups of …
The Effect of Obesity and Weight Loss in Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction.
This study looks at the effects of weight loss in people who have heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFpEF) and are overweight or obese. The main questions it aims to answer are whether weight loss in this group of people improves The heart's shape and how well it pumps …
An Early Feasibility Study Evaluation of an Implant Free Interatrial Shunt to Improve Heart Failure
The purpose of this early feasibility study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the device for percutaneous shunting of the interatrial septum and improvement of heart failure related symptoms. The primary goal is to determine if the device is safe to use. The findings from this study may …
Doxycycline to Protect Heart Muscle After Heart Attacks
Current medical treatment allows more people to survive heart attacks than in the past. However, some of the survivors suffer heart disease and require hospitalization later on. The causes behind this heart disease (heart failure) after a heart attack are poorly understood. Matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) is a protein that …
Clinical Study of Endocardial Myocardial Biopsy
In this study, patients with endocardial myocardial biopsy were selected to observe the safety of the operation, and pathological examination was performed. If necessary, special tests such as viral examination, mass spectrometry and molecular biology were performed to confirm the diagnosis, and follow-up was performed.
