Pulmonary Artery Catheter in Cardiogenic Shock Trial
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 …
ATrial Tachycardia PAcing Therapy in Congenital Heart
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 …
STabilization of Atheroma by Lipid-reducing Effect of Drug-Coated Balloon (STABLE-DCB)
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.
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 …
