The purpose of this study is to evaluate prospectively the safety and performance of the MOBYBOX System in the veno-arterial configuration in patients with cardiorespiratory failure or in the veno-venous configuration in patients with severe respiratory failure.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the cardiac electrical characteristics in different pacing outputs and body positions in LBB area pacing (LBBAP), from which the findings may help to develop and support data validation of a novel algorithm for LBB capture determination for LBBAP.
This study is testing a lab-made antibody called ePGT121v1-LS that targets a specific part of HIV. Researchers will give it by vein (IV) and under the skin (SC), both on its own and together with two other antibodies, VRC07-523LS and PGDM1400LS, which target different parts of the virus. They will …
Heart disease is the leading cause of death globally, accounting for 16% of the world's total deaths. The number of cases is expected to increase as our population ages. Heart disease also results in large economic burden. It costs the United States about $219 billion per year. Some patients have …
This study aims to determine if patients with higher BMI can tolerate higher doses of Entresto (sacubitril/valsartan) and experience better symptomatic and functional outcomes compared to patients with lower BMI.
This study aims to develop and refine a microRNA (miR) biomarker panel that can be used to phenotype net immune state after heart transplantation using circulating miRs (associated with drug doses and levels). These miRs will be used to characterize the overall immune state in adult heart transplant patients and …
Advances in flow cytometry techniques have led to a better understanding of platelet phenotypes and have revealed the existence of four major platelet populations with distinct functional properties (native, proaggregating, procoagulating, or apoptotic). These phenotypes have a significant impact on the hemostatic capacity of blood platelets, and a proportional change …
Background: Heart Failure (HF) is the second most common cause of hospitalizations for women in North America. Non-adherence to guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) is associated with 50% of all treatment failures and high rates of hospitalizations and death. A recent Canadian study showed that adherence to three or more GDMT …
This study aims to evaluate the clinical impact of an optimized pacing strategy in patients with heart failure. Intervention: Adjustment of the pacemaker lower rate limit to an individualized, hemodynamically optimized heart rate. Primary Endpoint: Heart failure symptoms, assessed by the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire score. Hypothesis: In patients with …
Previous data from our group showed reduced BMPR2 isoform A in pulmonary hypertension associated with left heart disease (PH-LHD) of valvular origin. Focusing on dysregulation of the BMPR2-activin pathway, a key regulator of vascular homeostasis, this project uses a multimodal approach combining molecular biology, advanced cardiac imaging, and histology. Its …
