This is a prospective, single-arm clinical trial in which participants with dilated cardiomyopathy will invite their first degree relatives to undergo mobile cardiac, electrocardiogram screening.
TRACE-IMPAIR is a prospective, clinical study of consecutive patients that evaluates the relationship between heart failure (HF) and cognitive impairment in relation to carotid and cerebral flow. The carotid and cerebral flow will be assessed using Doppler ultrasonography, and cognitive function will be estimated during routine neuropsychological tests. It is …
The chemotherapy medications used for breast cancer treatment are important for achieving a cure, but a potential side effect is that they can cause a decline in functional capacity (reduced exercise tolerance and impaired physical function) and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. The risks of decreased functional capacity and …
Rationale: In addition to surgery, effective breast cancer (BC) treatment typically requires chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or both. However, it is still unclear whether patients with BC are at increased risk of long-term cardiac dysfunction due to the adverse effects of these therapies. In a cross-sectional study in primary care, a comparison …
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is recommended after myocardial infarction (MI) or heart failure (HF), yet the added value of core muscle endurance training within CR remains uncertain. This randomized, three-arm trial will enroll 60 adults with stable MI or HF who are referred to Phase II CR. After consent and baseline …
The primary aim of the current study is a better understanding of the role of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) in heart failure and, in particular, changes in cardiac metabolism, which may contribute to heart failure. Various biomarkers in the coronary artery blood, as well as in the arterial and …
Investigators will determine whether N-of-1 trials, as a pragmatic, participant-centered approach to medication optimization that can overcome key barriers of deprescribing, can lead to increased participant confidence regarding their preference to continue or discontinue beta-blockers in older adults with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF).
Retrospective prospective Multicentric clinical follow up of patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation after being treated with the TricValve® Transcatheter Bicaval Valves System.
Heart failure (HF) is the most common nosology encountered in clinical practice. Its incidence and prevalence increase exponentially with increasing age and it is associated with the increased mortality, more frequent hospitalization and decreased quality of life. An initial approach to the treatment of HF patients with reduced left ventricular …
Cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) is when the heart's ability to pump oxygenated blood to the body is compromised. It is a side effect of cancer therapy which can occur as commonly as in 1 in 5 patients. When this occurs, heart failure medications are started to protect the heart …
