Prospective Observational Study of the ICD in Sudden Cardiac Death Prevention
The overall hypothesis of this study is that subtle interactions between structural (substrate) and functional (trigger) abnormalities of the heart, some of which are genetically-determined, can be used to identify patients at high risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). Such information may be used to better define patients most likely …
UK Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
Heart failure occurs when the heart is no longer able to pump blood around the body properly. It can cause breathlessness, swollen feet and ankles, and tiredness. In about half of patients with heart failure, one measure of the heart's pumping function, called the 'ejection fraction', is normal. This type …
Copenhagen Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has grown to become the dominant form of heart failure (HF) worldwide, in tandem with ageing of the general population and the increasing prevalence of obesity, diabetes mellitus and hypertension. In 2020, > 70% of patients with heart failure had preserved ejection fraction. …
Village-Based Management of Chronic Cardiovascular Disease in Qu Jiang Elderly Population Registry: The BOUQUET Cohort Study
This is a prospective observational cohort study conducted in Qujiang District, Zhejiang Province, China, aiming to evaluate the effectiveness of a comprehensive management program for elderly patients with chronic cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The program integrates pharmacological treatment, lifestyle modification, health education, and long-term follow-up, with enhanced monitoring using 7-day ECG …
A Cohort Study on Early Stages of Heart Failure
The main goal of this observational study is to learn about the epidemiological characteristics of heart failure among elder population in Beicai community in Shanghai and construct a community-based database and biobank. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the prevalence and prognosis of different stages of …
Outcome of Patients Treated With IABP
Intra-Aortic Balloon Pumps (IABP) is a widely used and effective left ventricular adjuvant therapy. IABP is an inflatable device placed in the aorta that inflates with diastole and deflates with systole. The aim of this study is to investigate the outcome of patients treated With IABP, and to evaluate the …
Effectiveness of Yiqi Fumai Lyophilized Injection for Acute Heart Failure
The goal of this cohort study is to observe the effectiveness of Yiqi Fumai Lyophilized Injection (YQFM) in patients with acute heart failure (AHF). It mainly aims to assess the effectiveness of YQFM on the 90-day mortality or readmission rate in patients with AHF and compare the results with AUGUST-AHF …
Stress Echo 2030: the Novel ABCDE-(FGLPR) Protocol to Define the Future of Imaging
With stress echo (SE) 2020 study, a new standard of practice in stress imaging was developed and disseminated: the ABCDE protocol for functional testing within and beyond CAD. ABCDE protocol was the fruit of SE 2020, and is the seed of SE 2030, which is articulated in 12 projects: 1-SE …
Development of CIRC Technologies
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Advanced cardiovascular imaging using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has proven to be effective in providing gold standard myocardial tissue characterization. Moreover, the intrinsic advantage of MRI's lack of exposure to ionizing radiation is particularly beneficial. At the same time, blood work …
Mechanisms And Prognosis of Stroke-Heart Syndrome
The incidence of stroke-heart syndrome following acute stroke, which encompasses both acute ischemic stroke and acute intracerebral hemorrhage, is notably high and is strongly associated with increased mortality and poor outcomes in stroke patients. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear, and there are currently no effective prevention or treatment strategies. …
