The investigators will conduct a two-phase pilot study to test the feasibility and acceptability of a 12-week Chair Yoga intervention for 20 heart-failure patients. Using a patient-centered approach, investigators will involve stakeholders in designing the protocol, gather patient feedback, and refine the protocol accordingly.
Perioperative hypotension is a risk factor for perioperative complications. Advances in machine learning and artificial intelligence have produced an algorithm that predicts the occurrence of hypotension episodes by analyzing an arterial pressure waveform. This technology has not been validated in thoracic surgical patients undergoing lung resections with the use of …
The overall objective of the planned future clinical trial is to test the investigator's central hypothesis that habitual singing over several weeks, similar to habitual exercise, will lead to sustained and favorable vascular adaptation, thereby lowering cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. The overall objective of this study is to refine and …
In this phase 2, single center, randomized clinical pilot trial, investigators will study the effect of a strategy involving a reduction of beta receptor (BR) stimulation (by decreasing dobutamine dosages) and subsequent BR inhibition (through ultra-short acting betablockers), versus a (routine) strategy with continued BR stimulation through dobutamine infusion, on …
The aim of the study is to provide information on the interaction between socioeconomic factors, daily physical activity, nutrition and lifestyle on loss of muscle mass and muscle function in patients with heart failure.
Participants in this study will either have heart failure (HF) and are scheduled to undergo pace maker (PM) implantation, cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker (CRT-P), cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D) implantation, His bundle pacing (HIBP) or left bundle area pacing (LBAP) (including HIBP/LBAP for patients with HF, for patients who have …
Pilot Prospective Randomized Unblinded Pragmatic Trial of Pulmonary Artery Hemodynamic Monitoring Following Hospitalization for Cardiogenic Shock
The primary objective of the PACCS trial is to assess if early invasive hemodynamic assessment and ongoing management with a PAC in patients with cardiogenic shock due to acutely decompensated heart failure (AHDF-CS) is associated with lower in-hospital mortality risk compared to the current standard of care with no or …
Congenital heart disease (CHD) affects approximately 1% of newborns in the US, with 25% of those affected having critical conditions requiring open heart surgery within one year of birth. Surgical and medical advances have allowed many patients to live beyond their fourth and fifth decades of life. Unfortunately, cardiac arrhythmias …
This study aims to investigate whether DCB angioplasty, compared to statin-based medical treatment alone, will lead to more reduction in plaque lipid burden as assessed by near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) at 6-9 months following the index procedure.
