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.
Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy for the Treatment of Refractory Ventricular Tachycardia
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is an abnormal rhythm arising from the bottom chambers (ventricles) of the heart. The hearts of most patients who develop VT have been previously damaged by a myocardial infarction (heart attack) or other heart muscle diseases (cardiomyopathies). The damage produces scar or fatty deposits that conduct electrical …
Mind Your Heart-II
This projects studies the role of mindfulness training (MT) to improve self-care among patients with heart failure and cognitive impairment.
Effect of Resistance Training in Patients on the Waiting List for Heart Transplant
The present longitudinal, randomized, and blinded clinical trial aims to: Evaluate the effects of resistance training on the functional capacity, quality of life, and cardiac biomarkers of hospitalized patients with heart failure (HF) on the waiting list for heart transplantation (HTx). Evaluate the associations between Fried's frailty classification and functional …
COgnitioN With VERiciGuat Evaluation in Heart Failure
CONVERGE-HF is a 4-center pilot phase IIb randomized control trial in ambulatory patients with chronic heart failure (≥ 6 months) and mild-to-moderate cognitive impairment.
Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing or Biventricular Pacing in AF and Left Ventricular Dysfunction
It is unknown whether left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) or biventricular pacing best prevents or reverses left ventricular (LV) adverse remodelling in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who require ventricular pacing or CRT. This randomized non-inferiority cross-over trial will compare left ventricular end-systolic volume change and secondary endpoints between …
