Correlation of FFR and iFR With Cardiac PET Perfusion in Patients With Severe Aortic Valve Stenosis
Aortic valve stenosis (AS) affects 2-7% of persons \> 65 years, symptoms include: angina and dyspnea, dizziness and syncope. Coincidence of coronary artery disease (CAD), also presenting with angina and dyspnea, in patients with AS between 40 - 65% . Angina in AS caused by significant reduction of coronary flow …
Understanding and Addressing Risks of Low Socioeconomic Status and Diabetes for Heart Failure
This study aims to determine whether a 6-month multilevel intervention involving problem-solving training, exercise training and support from community health workers is more effective in improving outcomes for individuals with low socioeconomic status, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and early cardiac dysfunction than receiving education and access to a community exercise …
Comparison of Moderate-Intensity Statin Plus Ezetimibe vs. High-Intensity Statin for Coronary Plaque Stabilization
This study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized clinical trial aimed at comparing the effects of moderate-intensity statin plus ezetimibe combination therapy versus high-intensity statin monotherapy on coronary plaque stabilization. Using advanced imaging techniques such as near-infrared spectroscopy-intravascular ultrasound (NIRS-IVUS), the trial evaluates whether the combination therapy is non-inferior to monotherapy …
Cardiac RadiothErapy For hEart faiLure
Preliminary data suggests that patients suffering from advanced refractory heart failure (HF) could benefit from single low dose whole heart external beam radiotherapy (EBRT). Objective: To explore in our center the efficacy of administering a EBRT treatment of 5Gy to the whole heart in patients with advanced and refractory HF. …
Digital Health Physical Activity Program for Older Family Care Partners of Patents With Heart Failure
The purpose of the Aim 3 study is to conduct a pilot randomized controlled trial to assess feasibility and preliminary effects of the TPA4You intervention.
Optimal Pediatric Heart Transplant Immunosuppression With MicroRNAs
This study aims to discover circulating microRNAs (associated with drug doses and levels) that can be used to characterize the overall immune state in pediatric heart transplant patients and predict patients that will go on to develop infection and rejection. MicroRNAs (miRs) are small, non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene …
Palliative Care for People With HF
Imagine having heart failure, a condition where the heart struggles to pump blood, making daily life hard. People with heart failure often don't feel well and end up going to the hospital a lot. Many of these people could feel better with extra help, but there aren't many programs that …
Spot Analysis of Natriuresis to Guide up- or Down-titration of Diuretic Therapy in Ambulatory Patients With Chronic Heart Failure
Heart failure is a chronic condition that causes congestion and frequent hospitalizations. Diuretic doses are usually adjusted based on clinical judgment without an objective measure of response. This study will test the feasibility of using point-of-care urine sodium measurements to guide up-titration or down-titration of loop diuretics in ambulatory patients …
Mechanisms of Semaglutide Therapy in Heart Failure Patients
Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, primarily used for treatment of type-2 diabetes mellitus. GLP-1 receptors are present on pancreatic islet β-cells, δ-cells and α-cells. Their stimulation increases insulin and somatostatin secretion, and decreases glucagon secretion. In addition, GLP-1 receptor agonists appear to have multiple extrapancreatic actions, which …
Cardiac Power Output in Cardiogenic Shock Patients
The main purpose of this study is to determine whether differences in myocardial reserve predict clinical outcomes for heart failure patients.
