Polish Transcatheter Transfemoral Mitral Valve-in-Valve Implantation (Mitral ViV) Registry
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, …
CV Imaging of Metabolic Interventions
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. It is becoming clearer that heart failure (HF) is closely associated with body's metabolism. Even before the heart becomes weaker, it responds to the stresses by changing the fuels it burns, which results in a reduction in the heart's metabolic efficiency …
Incidence and Predictors of Post-TIPS Heart Failure in Patients With Cirrhosis
The purpose of this study is to conduct a prospective trial to investigate the incidence of heart failure in cirrhosis patients undergoing transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt ,and to analyze the the predictors and modififications of cardiac function.
Novel Echocardiographic Biomarkers Assessing the Myocardial Work in Heart Failure
This study seeks to investigate the clinical value of novel echocardiographic indices, including myocardial work parameters, during the acute phase of heart failure hospitalization. The trajectory of novel echocardiographic indices from the start to the end of hospitalization will be captured, as a means to unravel and subsequently better understand …
TRAnscranial Doppler CErebral Blood Flow and Cognitive IMPAIRment in Heart Failure
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 …
Breast Cancer Long-term Outcomes on Cardiac Functioning: a Longitudinal Study
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 …
BIO-2-HEART: Identification of Biomarkers in T2DM and Heart Failure
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 …
Retrospective Prospective Multicentric Clinical Follow up of Patients After Being Treated With TricValve®
Retrospective prospective Multicentric clinical follow up of patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation after being treated with the TricValve® Transcatheter Bicaval Valves System.
Understanding CARdiac Events in Breast Cancer
In Ireland, over 3,000 patients are diagnosed with breast cancer annually, and 1 in 9 Irish women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. There is evidence that female breast cancer survivors are more likely to die of cardiovascular disease than their age-matched counterparts. This research is focused …
Absolute Coronary Flow in Patients With Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction and Left Bundle Branch Block With Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an effective therapeutic strategy in patients with symptomatic heart failure (HF) patients with LVEF of ≤35% and left bundle branch block (LBBB). However, approximately one-third of CRT-recipients do not improve after therapy (non-responders), despite meeting the required criteria. Previous studies have documented that the positive …
