Validation of the Prognostic Impact of a Retinal Photograph-based Cardiovascular Disease Risk Stratification System in de Novo HFrEF
"Despite significant advances in pharmacologic and device-based therapies, heart failure (HF) remains a major public health burden, with persistently high rates of hospitalization, impaired quality of life, and excess mortality-often exceeding those of leading malignancies. Prognosis in HF is shaped by its underlying etiology: ischemic HF often responds to revascularization …
Impella Reverse Remodeling in End-Stage Heart Failure
This observational study is being done to learn more about heart attack recovery in patients supported with the Impella 5.5 left ventricular assist device (LVAD) as part of their standard of care. There are three stages in this study: screening, treatment and post treatment. There will be two phases of …
Use of ReDS Technology in Patients With Acute Heart Failure
Background: Fluid overload, especially pulmonary congestion, is one of the main contributors into heart failure (HF) readmission risk and it is a clinical challenge for clinicians. The Remote dielectric sensing (ReDS) system is a novel electromagnetic energy-based technology that can accurately quantify changes in lung fluid concentration noninvasively. Previous non-randomized …
IEEM-Heat and Heart Failure
We will test the hypothesis that increasing skin wetness, and thus evaporative cooling, will attenuate the increase in core body temperature and accompanying cardiac stress during heat wave conditions in individuals with congestive heart failure. Secondly, we propose that wearing a water-saturated T-shirt will also be beneficial to attenuate the …
⁶⁸Ga-FAPI PET/CT for Cardiac Fibrosis in Heart Failure
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome with increasing incidence and prevalence, associated with high morbidity, mortality, and economic impact, despite therapeutic advances. Myocardial fibrosis is a common feature across different pathophysiological processes and plays a key role in HF development, with growing research interest specifically in non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy …
Vascular Complications After Kidney Transplantation
To determine the incidence of arterial inflow problems and venous outflow problems as causes of impaired renal function and/or treatment-resistant hypertension after kidney transplantation, when all kidney-transplant recipients in Denmark are evaluated according to uniform, well-defined clinical criteria. To investigate the efficacy and safety of catheter-based balloon treatment (percutaneous transluminal …
Comparison Between a Robotic Tele-echo-cardiography Technique and a Standard Echocardiography in the Management of Heart Failure in the Guadeloupe Archipelago Between the University Hospital of Guadeloupe and the Marie-Galante Hospital
The TERdeblue-S study is a feasibility study of robotic remote echocardiography, not only in terms of technology but also in terms of its integration into a telemedicine system to improve access to the heart failure management system in the Guadeloupe archipelago. The main objective of this study is to study …
18F-mFBG Imaging for Myocardial Sympathetic Innervation
This is a Phase 2 study evaluating the positron-emitting radiopharmaceutical 18F-mFBG as an imaging agent for quantification of myocardial sympathetic innervation. The study will examine a group of stable patients with heart failure (HF) from ischemic cardiomyopathy. All subjects will have left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤35% and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators …
The Role of CD34+ Stem Cells in the Pathogenesis of Takotsubo Syndrome
The underlying mechanisms of microvascular dysfunction in Takotsubo cardiomyopathy remain incompletely understood. As CD34+ cells are essential to coronary microvascular homeostasis we will investigate the potential association between CD34+ cell count and changes in left ventricular function in patients with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy at baseline and 6-month follow-up.
SHengXIaN-QuYu DEcoction in Heart Failure With Reduced and Mildly Reduced Ejection Fraction
The purpose of this study is to conduct a multicenter, randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effect of "ShengXian-QuYu Decoction" on quality of life , symptoms, and biomarkers in heart failure patients with reduced and mildly reduced ejection fraction.
