POWER Myocardial Fatigue Study: a Biomechanical Assessment of Contractility of Human Myocardium
To gain a comprehensive understanding of the biomechanical behaviour of human heart to explore the concept of myocardial fatigue in response to a temporal range of preload, afterload and drug-induced inotropy using in-vitro contractile assays.
Association Between Sleep Quality and Self-Care in Heart Failure Patients
The research will be conducted as a prospective and relational study to longitudinally investigate the effect of sleep quality on self-care in patients with heart failure (HF) and to evaluate the relationship between self-care, sleep quality, and cognitive functions. The sample size was calculated using the multiple linear regression model …
Ultra-High Frequency - Electrocardiogram (UHF-ECG) for the Diagnosis of Ventricular Electrical Dyssynchrony (VED)
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the VDI UHF-ECG System in the diagnosis of ventricular dyssynchrony when compared to the 12-lead ECG in patients with bradycardia and heart failure indicated for pacemaker implantation.
WARRIOR Ancillary Study for CCTA Analysis
In this study, quantitative characterization of plaque using coronary computed tomographic angiography (CTA) will be used to determine if women who were treated with intensive medical therapy have a greater reduction in the amount and type of cholesterol plaque compared to women receiving usual care and if this results in …
Sleep Quality and Sleep-disordered Breathing in Bypass Surgery Patients
To this study is recruiting non- emergency patients to whom are planning to make coronary artery bypass intervention. From all patients are going to examine transthoracic echo, collect blood samples and register overnight sleep polygraph in a qualified sleep laboratory two times; first before cabg and second one after surgery.
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Studies of Cardiac Muscle Metabolism
The metabolism of the heart provides the chemical energy needed to fuel ongoing normal heart contraction. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a technique used in a MRI scanner that can be used to measure and study heart metabolism directly but without blood sampling or obtaining tissue biopsies. One of the hypotheses …
Recognition of a Cardiac Arrest Within the EMS
This study aims to evaluate the average time taken by the Medical Regulation Assistants (MRA) to detect a cardiac arrest during the call to the EMS as well as the factors influencing this delay. Its main objective is to evaluate the delay, in seconds, between the call being picked up …
Intravascular Clotting (POCUS) - Marker of the Timing and Severity of Cardiac Arrest; Indicator of Futile Resuscitation
The scientific goals of the project: ultrasound assessment of the incidence of clotting in deep veins in patients after cardiac arrest during resuscitation and after the declaration of death; comparison to the incidence of clotting in the heart cavities comparison of resuscitation results in patients with and without clotting detected …
Continuous Jugular Venous Oxygen Saturation (SjO2) Measurement After Cardiac Arrest
Patients successfully resuscitated from sudden cardiac arrest are often comatose, having suffered a period of low blood flow and oxygen delivery to the brain. They are also at risk of suffering further brain injury during the immediate period after resuscitation, in which the brain's normal regulatory functions are impaired. To …
Respiratory Parameters Using Advanced Airways During In-hospital Cardiac Arrest
The investigators aim to investigate the real life volumes of air delivered to the lungs when rescuers deliver these breaths by hand as part of resuscitation attempts during cardiac arrest. The study will compare the volumes achieved using different devices which are routinely used to provided an airway during routine …
