The investigators aim to prospectively evaluate the efficacy and mechanism of benefit of His-bundle pacing enhanced cardiac resynchronization therapy (His-CRT) vs. cardiac resynchronization therapy (BIV-CRT) in patients with heart failure and right bundle branch block (RBBB).
Maintaining physical activity after cardiac rehabilitation has a major role in disease progression and patient prognosis. 6 months after the cardiac rehabilitation, we find during a nursing interview that many patients do not maintain regular physical activity. 1 year after cardiac rehabilitation, between 30% and 60% of patients do not …
The goal of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial is to determine whether dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor, can help prevent anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity caused by anthracycline chemotherapy in adult women with breast cancer receiving (neo)adjuvant treatment. The main questions the study aims to answer are: i) Does dapagliflozin reduce …
The objective of this observational pilot study is to collect HemoCept device data from subjects undergoing diagnostic right heart catheterization (RHC) procedures.
This study investigates the impact and safety of wireless monitoring on the prognosis of heart failure patients with implanted pacemakers and defibrillators. It aims to examine the frequency of unplanned early hospital visits and the early diagnosis/intervention of disease exacerbation based on the presence or absence of wireless monitoring. Additionally, …
In recent years increasing number of mitral bioprosthesis implantation, especially in elderly population, is observed. Bioprosthetic valves are associated with a lower risk of thrombotic and bleeding adverse events compared with mechanical prostheses, but their use is limited due to their durability. After years numerous patients may develop bioprosthesis failure, …
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to determine whether an interdisciplinary, community-based intervention can reduce 30-day hospital readmissions and improve functional outcomes in patients aged 65 or older with chronic cardiac, respiratory, or mixed conditions following hospital discharge. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the …
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of strict blood pressure control versus conventional care in patients with asymptomatic moderate to severe aortic valve stenosis. The study is a randomized (1:1), open label, controlled intervention trial. Hypothesis Strict BP control for 12 months reduces the progression of …
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of VExUS guided organ decongestion compared to standard of care in patients hospitalized with acute decompensated heart failue (ADHF). 180 patients will be randomly assigned to either intervention (VExUS) arm or standard of care (SOC) arm. In …
\[Plain language\]: Heart failure (HF) patients often experience irregular heartbeats, known as arrhythmias. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is common among HF patients and can worsen their condition, leading to strokes and higher death rates. Most of what we know about arrhythmias in HF comes from patients with devices like ICDs or …
