Evaluating Residual Congestion at Discharge in Acute Heart Failure Patients
Treatment of congestion is one of the main goals in patients hospitalized for acute heart failure. Nevertheless, current evidence shows that decongestion is often not achieved and that residual congestion at discharge is strongly associated with poor outcomes. While this association has been demonstrated, previous studies have primarily focused on …
ChAracterization of Patients and Treatment OUtcomes in Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation
The goal of this observational study is to characterize the population of patients qualified for transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions (TTVI). It is expected to: Describe the profile of patients qualified for TTVI Establish the most common causes for disqualification from TTVI Evaluate the immediate and long-term efficacy of TTVI Evaluate …
Prediction of Heart-Failure with Machine Learning
In this monocentric observational study the research question is to what extent data collected via Apple Watch can predict the heart failure status of decompensated HF patients. For this purpose, physiological data from the Apple Watch (such as single-lead electrocardiogram, SpO2, respiratory rate, step count, nighttime temperature, etc.) will be …
Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Stress-perfusion Study in Patinets with Fontan Circulation
Univentricular heart (UVH) is a severe congenital heart disease. Accurate advanced non-invasive diagnostic methods is limited. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging has evolved as a particularly useful tool for the study of patients with adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) considering its ability to determine detailed anatomy and detect early cardiac …
Mechanisms of Pulmonary Vascular Dysfunction in Heart Failure
Heart failure (HF) patients often develop pulmonary hypertension (PH) that leads to transition into a biventricular HF with poor prognosis. There are two PH components: 1) passive transmission of increased left atrial pressure, 2) heart failure (HF) related pulmonary vascular dysfunction (PVD) with increased vascular resistance. Intriguingly, only some, but …
SNORD3A IN ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE AND HEART FAILURE
This is a prospective, non-randomized, single center, open label clinical study enrolling patients affected by 1) chronic ischemic heart disease with evidence or suspect significant myocardial ischemia (group 1, CCS) or 2) acute coronary syndromes (group 2, ACS), both undergoing coronary angiography and eventually coronary revascularization at the Department of …
Myocardial Mechanisms in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
The purpose of this study is to identify changes in heart tissue structure and biological function in patients with heart failure by performing an endomyocardial biopsy (EMB or heart biopsy) during a right heart catheterization (RHC). The ultimate goal is to use this information to develop new treatments for heart …
Changes in Skeletal Muscle Thickness in Patients With Acute Heart Failure
This study aims to determine, via skeletal muscle ultrasound (US), the extent, timing and relationship between skeletal muscle mass loss and outcomes after orthotropic heart transplantation (OHT) and left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation amongst patients with cardiogenic shock. Advanced therapies such as OHT and VADs in the heart failure …
Association Between the Sit-To-Stand Test and the Prognosis of Patients With Heart Failure
Introduction: Heart failure (HF), among cardiovascular diseases, is the disease that has been increasing its incidence and prevalence the most in recent years in the world population, due to the aging of the population. In addition, HF is the most frequent hospital diagnosis in the elderly, and is the main …
The Role of Cardiac Mechanics, Biomarkers and Frailty in Aortic Stenosis
The role of cardiac mechanics, circulating biomarkers and frailty in predicting outcomes in patients with aortic stenosis after aortic valve replacement (SCRABLES -The 2-Parts Study) Part I: Observational study to characterize phenotypes, structural alterations and biomarkers profiles in a broad spectrum of patients with aortic stenosis and heart failure with …
