Association Between Sleep Quality and Self-Care in Heart Failure Patients
The research will be conducted as a prospective and relational study to longitudinally investigate the effect of sleep quality on self-care in patients with heart failure (HF) and to evaluate the relationship between self-care, sleep quality, and cognitive functions. The sample size was calculated using the multiple linear regression model …
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: …
Cardiac Remodelling Following Endovascular Repair of the Aorta
To assess the effects of endovascular aortic repair on cardiac morphology and function
Effects of Negative Pressure Ventilation Onto Hemodynamics and Right Ventricular Funktion in Patients After Implantation of a Left Ventricular Assist Device.
All patients undergoing an implantation of a durable left ventricular assist device and monitored by pulmonary artery catheter showing no adverse events after surgery are included in the study and ventilated for 15 minutes using extra thoracic negative pressure ventilation and usual intrathoracic positive pressure ventilation. Hemodynamics changes between both …
The Cardio-share Telemedicine Cross-sector Collaboration Model for Managing Vulnerable Patients With Heart Failure
The goal of this observational study is to explore the potential of implementing a telemedicine-based cross-sector collaboration model to manage patients with frequent admissions with decompensated heart failure. The main question(s) it aims to answer are: Characterization of conditions that make these patients vulnerable Description of key-elements that makes possible …
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 …
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.
Evaluating Residual Congestion at Discharge in Acute Heart Failure Patients
Treatment of congestion is one of the main goals in patients hospitalized for acute heart failure. Nevertheless, current evidence shows that decongestion is often not achieved and that residual congestion at discharge is strongly associated with poor outcomes. While this association has been demonstrated, previous studies have primarily focused on …
ChAracterization of Patients and Treatment OUtcomes in Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation
The goal of this observational study is to characterize the population of patients qualified for transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions (TTVI). It is expected to: Describe the profile of patients qualified for TTVI Establish the most common causes for disqualification from TTVI Evaluate the immediate and long-term efficacy of TTVI Evaluate …
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 …
