A Randomised, Controlled Trial of a Low-energy Diet for Improving Functional Status in Heart Failure With PRESERVED Ejection Fraction Preserved Ejection Fraction
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a common and serious complication of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D). HFpEF occurs when the heart muscle unable to relax efficiently to pump the blood around the body. This leads to fluid build-up, breathlessness and inability to tolerate physical exertion. People …
Comparing the Effects of Cognitive Training and Physical Exercise on Cognition, Cerebral Autoregulation and Cerebral Vasoreactivity in Men and Women With Heart Failure
The objective of this project is to assess the effects of combined physical exercise and cognitive training interventions on cognitive and brain health in patients with heart failure (HF). Also, the role of sex on the effects of the interventions will be assessed.
Pulmonary Artery DenerVation Clinical Study Using the Gradient Denervation System in Heart Failure Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension Group 2 (PreVail-PH2 OUS Study)
Characterize the impact of pulmonary artery denervation on the quality of life in Heart Failure Patients with Group 2 Pulmonary Hypertension
Mangafodipir - an Intracellular Contrast Agent for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI): Measuring Manganese Uptake Rate in Heart Failure Patients With Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) Patients.
More than half of heart failure patients have preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), a condition caused by increased wall stiffness that impairs proper heart filling. Two types of cardiac fibrosis, replacement fibrosis and interstitial fibrosis, contribute to this stiffening. In addition, altered calcium handling in the cardiomyocytes is relevant. The currently …
A Trial Comparing High-Flow Nasal Cannula Versus Noninvasive Ventilation on Reintubation and Post-Extubation Respiratory Failure in High-Risk Patients With Systolic Heart Failure
This prospective, open-label randomized controlled pilot trial will enroll participants at the Yale New Haven Hospital. Patients with systolic heart failure, defined as an ejection fraction ≤40%, who require invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) and are admitted to either the cardiac intensive care unit (CICU) or medical ICU (MICU) will be …
SGLT2 Inhibitors in Patients With ADHF During Ventilator Weaning
This study will explore the potential benefits of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors in preventing cardiac ischemia and cardiopulmonary edema in patients with acute decompensated heart failure during weaning from ventilators.
Evaluation of a Non-invasive Urinary Collection Technique for the Adaptation of Diuretic Treatment in Incontinent Heart Failure Patient Over 75 Years of Age in the Acute Phase
Heart failure is a general disease affecting many organs and regulatory systems with a prevalence of 10% after 75 years of age, leading to significant hospitalization in the elderly. This generates a significant cost for our health system. The management of patients over 75 years of age in acute heart …
Using Electrical Impedance Tomography to Investigate the Relationship Between Airflow Rate During High-flow Oxygen Therapy and Pressure in Patients With Heart Failure Compared to Non-invasive Ventilation
Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has been widely used in heart failure patients with supporting evidence. However, the drawbacks and contraindications associated with NIV limit its applicability in certain patients. Recently, high-flow oxygen therapy (HFOT) has gained popularity, particularly in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, due to its documented benefits, improved …
Paced Heart Rate Acceleration for Cardiac Conditioning
A clinical trial of exercise-similar heart rate acceleration delivered via cardiac pacing vs. sham intervention in subjects at rest will be performed. The study population comprises subjects with guideline-directed medically managed left ventricular dysfunction due to ischemic or non-ischemic cardiomyopathy and an existing implantable cardioverter defibrillator or biventricular implantable cardioverter …
Atrioventricular Node Ablation and Conduction System Pacing in Patients With Well Controlled Permanent Atrial Fibrillation (AF), Heart Failure and Preserved Ejection Fraction: Heart Rate Regularization Versus Medical Rate Control
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the clinical efficacy of physiological pacing combined with atrioventricular node ablation, in patients with Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) and well controlled permanent atrial fibrillation.The main question it aims to answer is that heart rate regularization added to physiological …
