Pressure-Volume Loop Assessment in Valvular Heart Disease
The VHD PV loop study intends to assess invasive right ventricular to pulmonary artery (RV-PA) coupling in patients with valvular heart disease (VHD). Invasive RV-PA coupling is measured by using conductance catheters, the gold standard assessment for ventricular physiology. Several non-invasive parameters have been reported as surrogates for this complex …
Optimal Pediatric Heart Transplant Immunosuppression With MicroRNAs (OPTIMA)
This study aims to discover circulating microRNAs (associated with drug doses and levels) that can be used to characterize the overall immune state in pediatric heart transplant patients and predict patients that will go on to develop infection and rejection. MicroRNAs (miRs) are small, non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene …
Pforzheim Tricuspid Valve Registry - Outcomes of Percutaneous Tricuspid Valve Repair
The Pforzheim Tricuspid Valve Registry study is designed to confirm the safety and performance of the TriClip™ device in a contemporary real-world setting in critically ill patients. The observational trial is a prospective, single arm, open-label, single-center, post market registry.
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Studies of Cardiac Muscle Metabolism
The metabolism of the heart provides the chemical energy needed to fuel ongoing normal heart contraction. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a technique used in a MRI scanner that can be used to measure and study heart metabolism directly but without blood sampling or obtaining tissue biopsies. One of the hypotheses …
Whole Exome Sequencing in Finding Causative Variants in Germline DNA Samples From Patients With Congestive Heart Failure Receiving Therapy for Breast Cancer
This research trial studies whole exome sequencing in finding causative variants in germline deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) samples from patients with congestive heart failure receiving therapy for breast cancer. Studying samples of germline DNA in the laboratory from patients with congestive heart failure receiving therapy for breast cancer may help doctors …
Circulating Markers That Underlie the Transition From Compensated Hypertrophy to Heart Failure
The purpose of this research is to determine if two proteins in the blood are increased during acute heart failure. These two proteins are produced when the heart becomes dysfunctional and unable to contract normally. They may then be released into the blood and be detected by standard method in …
The Impact of Atrial Pressure Change Before and After Combined Procedure
One-stop procedure combining catheter ablation (CA) and left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) has been a feasible treatment for patients with atrial fibrillation at high risk of stroke and/or bleeding. Although it could achieve considerable rhythm control and stroke prophylaxis, a number of patients has experienced progressive heart failure after the …
The Follow-up System of Pediatric Heart Failure and the Establishment of End-stage Heart Failure Registry
Establish a follow-up management system for pediatric heart failure and a registration platform for end-stage heart failure
Follow-up of the Cardiomyopathy Cohort SFB/TR19
Follow-up of a cohort of inflammatory cardiomyopathy patients (suspected or validated inflammatory cardiomyopathy) recruited at baseline by the SFB-TR19 project. Standardized protocols will be used for the assessment of medical history and examinations, laboratory biomarkers, and the collection of various biomaterials for biobanking purposes.
Validation of the Prognostic Impact of a Retinal Photograph-based Cardiovascular Disease Risk Stratification System in de Novo HFrEF
"Despite significant advances in pharmacologic and device-based therapies, heart failure (HF) remains a major public health burden, with persistently high rates of hospitalization, impaired quality of life, and excess mortality-often exceeding those of leading malignancies. Prognosis in HF is shaped by its underlying etiology: ischemic HF often responds to revascularization …
