Effect of a Quality Improvement Initiative to Address Social Determinants of Health on Rehospitalization Rates in Patients With Heart Failure
The objective of this program is to improve post-acute care coordination for necessary social services for patients leaving the hospital after recovering from an episode of decompensated heart failure.
Safety and Efficacy of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-derived Engineered Human Myocardium as Biological Ventricular Assist Tissue in Terminal Heart Failure
The BioVAT-HF trial will test the hypothesis that cardiomyocyte implantation via engineered heart muscle (EHM), the proposed investigational medicinal product (IMP; designated "Biological Ventricular Assist Tissue" or BioVAT), results in sustainable remuscularization and biological enhancement of myocardial performance in the failing heart. EHM are constructed from defined mixtures of induced …
Mechanisms of Diuretic Resistance in Heart Failure, Aim 2
Randomized placebo-controlled, double-blind, double-dummy, crossover design testing combinations placebo/placebo, bendroflumethiazide/placebo, amiloride/placebo, and bendroflumethiazide/amiloride added to bumetanide.
The Inorganic Nitrate and eXercise Performance in Heart Failure (iNIX-HF)
The goals of this project are to determine the effectiveness of acute (2 hours after a single dose) and chronic (after 6 weeks of once-a-day dosing) KNO3 treatment (10mmol) vs. placebo on quadriceps muscle power and on aerobic exercise performance (V̇O2peak) in patients with HFrEF (left ventricular ejection fraction \<45%). …
Lifestyle Behaviours of Women Newly Diagnosed With Heart Failure
Heart Failure occurs when the heart's ability to pump blood is reduced. Heart failure can lead to symptoms of breathlessness, fatigue and ankle swelling, and result in health complications including damage to other organs (e.g. kidneys), reduced function and quality of life. Although the symptoms of heart failure are similar …
Sensor-controlled Digital Game for Heart Failure Self-management: A Clinical Trial
This study evaluates a sensor-controlled digital game (SCDG) to motivate self-management behaviors of weight monitoring and physical activity in adults with heart failure (HF). Half of the participants will receive the SCDG app and weight monitoring and physical activity sensors and the other half will receive only the weight monitoring …
Elastic Band-Progressive Resistance Training (EB-PRT) for Sarcopenia Among Heart Failure Patients
Heart failure (HF) is a complicated clinical syndrome caused by structural and/or functional cardiac abnormalities that result in ineffective myocardial pumping. HF management has placed more emphasis on improving the prognostic factors which determine these poor clinical outcomes. More recently, the prognostic role of sarcopenia in HF has received particular …
Cardiac Hemodynamics During Left Ventricular Assist
The goal of this observational study is to exploratively investigate intracardiac geometry and hemodynamics in patients with ongoing HeartMate 3-therapy in the Swedish Southeast Healthcare region. The main question it aims to answer is: \- How do different flow levels in the HeartMate 3 left ventricular assist system influence intracardiac …
Voice Analysis for Monitoring Patients With Heart Failure
This observational study involves ADHF patients at two sites in the United States and Germany. After informed consent and screening assessments, participants will perform daily voice recordings during their hospital stay, from admission until discharge. Alongside voice data, additional clinical information such as left ventricular ejection fraction, NTpro-BNP levels, and …
Impella Pump Return Study to Analyze Deposits and Biomaterial in Used Pumps
Analysis of cell and protein deposits on the Impella Heart Pump.
