Exercise Intolerance in Heart Failure
The investigators are studying whether metabolic abnormalities in cardiac and skeletal muscle in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are associated with debilitating exercise intolerance.
Registry to Assess the Safety and Feasibility of the Subpulmonary Support With the Novel Venous Cannula in Patients With Failing/Absence of the Right Heart
The purpose of the study is to monitor the clinical safety and performance of the EXCOR Venous Cannula in context of an EXCOR VAD therapy to ensure continued acceptability of identified risks, to enable detecting emerging risks and to assess clinical improvement on both short- and long-term.
Correlation Between PLA Levels and Disease Severity in Patients With Sepsis Cardiac Insufficiency
Sepsis cardiac insufficiency is characterized by high morbidity and mortality. Studies have shown an association between elevated PLA levels in patients with sepsis and clinical outcomes of cardiac dysfunction. This study will explore the correlation between circulating PLA levels and organ dysfunction and disease severity in SIMD patients in the …
MitraClip in Patients With Heart Failure
Multicenter observational study. The study does not involve any interventions in routine clinical practice, the choice of treatment method (including the type of medical device used and the method of surgical intervention) and the methods of examination and postoperative management of patients will not differ from the standard of care …
Non-Invasive Method for Evaluation of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy
Left bundle branch block (LBBB) exists in about 25% of patients with congestive heart failure and is associated with worsened prognosis. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has been one of the most important advancements in the past two decades for patients with LBBB heart failure. However, 30-40% of patients receiving a …
Respiratory Virus Infections in Acute Heart Failure
Patients admitted to the cardiology department with acute heart failure who have a nasopharyngeal respiratory virus PCR test performed within 72 hours of admission will be enrolled in the study cohort. The detection rate of respiratory viruses including influenza virus, RSV, and coronavirus will be analysed. The investigators will also …
Implementing Spiritual Care in Inpatient Palliative Care
The goal of this observational study is to is to ascertain the spiritual needs of palliative patients in a standardized manner using the Spiritual Needs Questionnaire and to promptly address those needs by (specialized) spiritual care. To determine whether the effort of implementing the Spiritual Needs Questionnaire on a sustainable …
HFPEF-project: Heart Failure Phenotyping - Exploring the Fingerprints
With an ageing population, the number of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) or diastolic heart failure is increasing rapidly. This condition is associated with significantly increased morbidity and mortality, but effective treatment options that improve prognosis are very limited. Further understanding of the nature and determinants …
Human/Machine Interface: What the HeartMate 3 ® Device Tells Us About the Future
Durable left ventricular assist devices (dLVAD) have been increasingly utilized since the mid to late 1990s, with an uptick of utility starting in 2010 following expanded indications for therapy to not only include a bridge to transplantation strategy, but also for those individuals who suffer from advanced heart failure (HF) …
Comparing N-terminal-proB-type Natriuretic Peptide With Other Criteria in Pleural Fluid Analysis
To assess the discriminative properties of pleural fluid (PF) N-terminal-proB-type-natriuretic-peptide (NTproBNP) levels in identifying heart failure (HF)-associated pleural effusions (PE).
