BiVACOR® Total Artificial Heart Early Feasibility Study
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of using the BiVACOR Total Artificial Heart (TAH) System to support adult patients with severe biventricular heart failure, or univentricular heart failure in which left ventricular assist device (LVAD) support is not recommended, who require mechanical circulatory support to sustain …
Optimizing Heart Failure Therapies Among Patients With Limited Access in Denver
Numerous pharmacotherapies have been proven to reduce mortality and hospitalization rates for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients. However, these are underutilized clinically, preventing realization of proven benefits. Simplified patient education tools and multidisciplinary teams including pharmacists have been used to improve medication optimization but in predominantly private …
PET Myocardial Fatty-acid Metabolic Imaging With XTR003 Injection and 18F-FDG to Assess Myocardial Viability in Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-controlled Phase IIb study to investigate the diagnostic-prognostic utility of XTR003 Injection integrated with 18F-FDG as an exploratory clinical trial. A total of 40-60 patients will be enrolled and randomized into two study groups as: fasting XTR003/18F-FDG group and glucose-loaded group at a …
Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block in Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study aims to evaluate the effect of the serratus posterior superior intercostal plane (SPSIP) block on postoperative pain and opioid consumption in patients undergoing minimally invasive cardiac valve surgery via mini-thoracotomy.
CAPRA-EVO: a Randomized Serial PCCT Trial of Early Evolocumab After ACS
The CAPRA-EVO trial is a single-center, randomized, open-label study with blinded endpoint assessment comparing early evolocumab plus standard lipid-lowering therapy versus standard-of-care lipid-lowering therapy in patients with acute coronary syndrome after successful percutaneous coronary intervention. The study will use serial photon-counting coronary computed tomography angiography at baseline and 52 weeks …
A Study Understanding How Much CDR132L Enters the Bloodstream After Injection Under the Skin Compared to Injection Into a Vein in Healthy Participants
This study is being done to understand how much of the medicine (CDR132L) enters the bloodstream after injection under the skin compared to injection into a vein in healthy people. This will help us find the best way to give the medicine to people living with heart failure. The study …
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 …
Evaluation of the BMPR2-Activin Signaling Pathway in Group II Pulmonary Hypertension.
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 …
Atrial Appendage Micrograft Transplants to Assist Heart Repair After Cardiac Surgery
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) leads the global mortality statistics. Atherosclerotic plaques in coronary arteries hallmark IHD, drive hypoxia, and may rupture to result in myocardial infarction (MI) and death of contractile cardiac muscle, which is eventually replaced by a scar. Depending on the extent of the damage, dysbalanced cardiac workload …
Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Supported by Cangrelor
The purpose of this study is to find out whether it is safe and practical to perform MIDCAB surgery (a minimally invasive heart bypass procedure) while patients receive a continuous cangrelor infusion during the operation. Cangrelor is a medicine that helps prevent blood clots and works quickly through a vein …
