Novel Approaches for Improving Vascular Function in Veterans With HFpEF
This project will evaluate the impact of L-Citrulline, tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), and atorvastatin administration on physical capacity and vascular function in Veterans with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
Training Medical Residents in the Use of the Venous Excess UltraSound (VExUS) Score for Bedside Volume Assessment.
This randomized controlled trial evaluates the effectiveness of two training approaches (in-person versus remote) for teaching medical residents to apply the Venous Excess Ultrasound (VExUS) score for bedside volume assessment in patients with acute heart failure. Resident performance will be compared to that of expert physicians certified in abdominal and …
Optimising Pacing for Contractility 2
The investigators have demonstrated that they can reliably identify an optimum heart rate range for contractility of the left ventricle in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). They have also demonstrated in an acute cross-over and a small parallel group feasibility study that keeping the heart rate in this range …
Comparison of Cardiac Index and Stroke-volume-index Measured by Pulmonary Artery Catheter, FloTrac® and Argos® in Cardiac Surgery Patients.
A comparison of cardiac performance determined by stroke-volume-index measured by different mechanisms in patients during and after cardiac surgery: Pulmonary artery catheter Flo Trac Argos Monitor Investigations will be done in theater and on ICU in ventilated and spontaneously breathing patients.
Targeting Breathing Limitations to Improve Functional Outcomes in HFpEF
The overall purpose of this study is to investigate whether pulmonary limitations that increase the oxygen (O2) cost of breathing impact dyspnea on exertion (DOE) and peak exercise capacity in patients with HFpEF and obesity. As per investigator's hypothesis, obesity is likely a significant contributor to DOE and exercise intolerance …
SGLT2 Inhibitors, Ketones, and Cardiovascular Benefit Research Plan
The study team will examine the effects of SGLT2i (and SGLT2i-induced increases in plasma ketone concentrations) on skeletal muscle and cardiac ketone uptake, skeletal muscle bioenergetics, cardiopulmonary exercise capacity, and patient-reported functional outcomes.
A Study of IBI362 in Subjects With HFpEF or HFmrEF Combined With Obesity
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of IBI362 in Chinese subjects with heart failure with ejection fraction retention/mild ejection fraction reduction (HFpEF/HFmrEF) combined with obesity (BMI≥28kg/㎡). This study will enroll about 141 NYHA Class II-III HFpEF/HFmrEF subjects combined with obesity. Eligible …
Bariatric Surgery Evaluation and Assessment of Treatment Efficacy - Intervention Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if a bariatric surgery strategy will improve clinical endpoints, cardiac parameters and functional status in patients with obesity (with BMI 32-40 kg/m2) and symptomatic HF with preserved or mildly reduced LVEF in combination with AF, as compared to standard of care. …
Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation (WISE) Pre-HFpEF
The purpose of this study is to examine small vessel disease (a condition in which the small arteries in the heart become narrowed). The investigators want to know how the small vessel disease contributes to pre-HFpEF (a condition with inadequate heart muscle function in the setting of preserved muscle pumping) …
PReventive Effect Of Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing Versus righT vEntricular paCing on All Cause deaTh, Heart Failure Progression, and Ventricular dysSYNChrony in Patients With Substantial Ventricular Pacing (PROTECT-SYNC): Multicenter Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial
PROTECT-SYNC study is a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial. A total of 7 medical centers across Republic of Korea will enroll 450 patients during 2 years of enrollment period, and followed for 2 years of follow-up period. The purpose of this study to compare the clinical outcomes of Left Bundle Branch …
