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 …
An Evaluation of the KCCQ Score in Predicting Cardiovascular Risk in Dialysis Patients
Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is the main complication and the most important cause of death in CKD patients. As the disease progresses, the incidence of cardiovascular disease in CKD patients gradually increases, especially in End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients receiving dialysis treatment, where the prevalence of cardiovascular disease reaches its highest …
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 …
MRI to Predict Rejection and Failure in Transplant and Cardiomyopathy Patients
Overall Research Strategy of this protocol is to refine and validate noninvasive CMR imaging sequences with invasive hemodynamic and pathology results to create a comprehensive, noninvasive, radiation-reduced regimen for pediatric cardiomyopathy and cardiac transplant assessment. We were the first to perform MR-guided cardiac catheterization in US children, and have accumulated …
Real-time Pressure Volume Loop Monitoring as a Guide for Enhanced Understanding of Changes in Elemental Cardiovascular Physiology During Therapeutic Strategies Aiming for Hemodynamic Optimization. Cohort II: Structural Heart Interventions (PLUTO-II)
The aim of PLUTO-II is to use biventricular pressure-volume (PV) loop measurements to improve the understanding of direct changes in cardiac and hemodynamic physiology induced by transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) or tricuspid edge-to-edge repair (TEER). These procedures evoke immediate changes in cardiac mechanoenergetics, ventricular-vascular interaction as well as ventricular …
