Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) decreases heart failure hospitalizations and mortality and increases left ventricular Ejection Fraction (EF) in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, left bundle branch block and QRS duration \>130msec. His bundle pacing has a similar effect in this category of patients. However, CRT is not beneficial in heart failure …
In this single-centre, cross-sectional study, the investigators aim to assess the prevalence of asymptomatic echocardiographic structural and functional cardiac abnormalities in adult CKD patients with additional cardiovascular risk factors. Furthermore, with the use of Olink technology, analyses of the plasma proteome will be performed to identify potential protein pathways associated …
Heart failure (HF) and Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients are frequently not administered renin-angiotensin aldosterone system inhibitor (RAASi) therapies at recommended doses due to hyperkalaemia, despite proven mortality and morbidity benefits. Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (SZC) is a nonabsorbed potassium binder proven to lower serum potassium (S-K) and maintain normokalaemia. The …
The objective of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the effects of a standardized exercise program alone versus the same program combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation in patients undergoing heart failure . The main questions it aims to answer are: Assessing the ultrasonographic parameters: echo intensity (echogenicity), cross-sectional area, …
Evaluation of pericoronary adipocyte gradient (PCAT) in relationship with local atherosclerotic changes in a patient undergoing heart transplantation.
Frailty, an aging-related syndrome of physiological decline characterized by marked vulnerability to adverse health outcomes, has attracted increasing attention in cardiology due to the growing elderly population with heart failure. Frail patients are mainly excluded from large cardiovascular intervention studies, and clinical trials addressing frailty and showing an impact on …
There are two primary goals of this multicenter clinical trial that combines an FDA device trial and a phase II drug trial in the same study cohort. These two goals are to: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Cardiohelp Device for VA-ECMO (heart-lung support) for up to 30 …
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and feasibility of the Supira System in heart failure patients with low LVEF, undergoing HRPCI with use of mechanical circulatory support who may benefit from cardiovascular hemodynamic support beyond the PCI procedure.
Why Is This Study Important? The heart has valves that help control blood flow. Aortic regurgitation (AR) is a condition where one of these valves (the aortic valve) doesn't close properly, causing blood to leak back into the heart. Over time, this makes the heart work harder and grow larger …
According to modern concepts, mitochondrial dysfunction may be the fundamental basis for the development and progression of CHF, including in patients undergoing myocardial revascularization. The processes of mitochondrial fusion, division and mitophagy are aimed at maintaining cellular homeostasis. A change in the balance of these processes can lead to the …
