Serial Coronary CTA-based Plaque Progression Detection for Management of Coronary Heart Disease
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether a management strategy based on coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) for patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease can improve the LDL-C target achievement rate compared to a traditional management strategy without follow-up CCTA, thereby reducing the incidence of major adverse …
School-based Program for the Prevention of Rheumatic Heart Disease in Endemic Regions
The overall objective of the PREVENT trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of an integrated, school-based program for the prevention of rheumatic heart disease (RHD) in regions with an endemic pattern of RHD. We conduct a stepped wedge cluster randomized trial in randomly selected schools in Nepal and Zambia. The …
A Study Of Clinical Implications Of Pulmonary Vascular Disease In Valvular Heart Disease
The purpose of this study is to characterize pulmonary hemodynamic profiles, with a focus on PVR subtypes, in patients with left-sided valvular heart disease undergoing aortic or mitral valve intervention, and to identify patterns predicting reversibility of TR and RV dysfunction.
Clinical Implementation of a Novel Decision Support Tool in Patients With Ischemic Heart Disease
The PM-Heart algorithm (PMHeartIHD) is an in-house developed software that predict the survival prognosis for the individual patient hospitalized with ischemic heart disease (IHD) after a coronary arteriography has been performed. The software is intended to be used as a clinical decision support system i.e. the calculated survival prognosis is …
Effectiveness of a School-centered Prevention Program on Prevalence of Latent Rheumatic Heart Disease
The overall objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of a school-centered primary and secondary prevention program on the prevalence of latent rheumatic heart disease among schoolchildren in Nepal, and to investigate the role of socioeconomic and environmental factors in the development and progression of rheumatic heart disease.
Vibrometer Based Pulse Wave Analysis for Arterial Stiffness and Ischemic Heart Disease Risk Assessment
This clinical investigation will evaluate a novel contactless technology for assessing arterial stiffness and explore its potential in assessment of risk for and development of cardiovascular disease. The main aims of the study are: To assess device and method performance for assessment of arterial stiffness and cardiovascular risk, on a …
A Non-Inferiority Trial of Stopping Penicillin in Early Rheumatic Heart Disease: GOAL-Stop
GOAL-Stop is a randomized, controlled, non-inferiority trial designed to evaluate whether discontinuing secondary antibiotic prophylaxis (SAP) is non-inferior to continuing SAP in preventing progression of rheumatic heart disease (RHD) among children and adolescents. The trial will enroll participants aged 5-20 years with previously diagnosed mild RHD who have received at …
Psychological Trauma, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Resilience in Adults With Congenital Heart Disease
The purpose of this study, entitled "Psychological trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder, and resilience in adults with congenital heart disease in a large population sample", is to evaluate for exposures during a lifetime with congenital heart disease that may be associated with higher likelihood of developing PTSD. Primary aim: \- Identify …
Active Surveillance and Safety/Efficacy Evaluation of Innovative Devices for Structural Heart Disease Intervention
This study aims to establish an active surveillance system to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of innovative medical devices used in the interventional treatment of structural heart disease. The devices of interest include a biodegradable patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure device and a transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair system. Clinical …
Youth-Onset Type 2 Diabetes and Heart Disease: The Young at Heart Prospective Cohort Study
Background Type 2 diabetes is a disease that affects blood sugar levels. Complications can include heart and blood vessel (vascular) diseases. Rates of type 2 diabetes have tripled in children and young adults over the last 40 years. Vascular diseases are also increasing in young people. Objective To learn more …
