Non-invasive Coronary Thrombus Imaging to Define These Cause of Acute Myocardial Infarction
We now have very sensitive blood tests that can pick up damage to the heart and find patients who have had a heart attack. However, whilst this is welcome, it does not identify what causes the heart attack and can sometimes pick up other conditions that cause a strain on …
Resting Energy Expenditure and Substrate Consumption in Cardiac Arrest Patients Under Target Temperature Management
This study is a single-center, prospective, observational study. According to the sample size formula, an estimated 40 cases should be collected, all of whom are from the emergency intensive care unit. After successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation, the enrolled patients will be transferred to the emergency intensive care unit for further standardized …
Hypertonic Lactate After Cardiac Arrest
The study is intended to test the hypothesis that sodium lactate infusion after resuscitation from a cardiac arrest will decrease the magnitude of brain damage, as measured by the serum biomarker concentration of NSE.
Left Ventricular Reverse Remodeling Evaluation After Surgical Correction of Aortic Regurgitation
Investigators assume that surgical correction approach to functional mitral regurgitation during intervention for chronic aortic regurgitation in patients with severe enlargement of the left heart chambers influences reverse remodeling of the left ventricle (LV) in the postoperative period. It is suggested that functional mitral regurgitation (MR) provides supra-physiological left ventricle …
GLS in Difficult CPB Weaning
The goal of this observational study is to learn whether global longitudinal strain (GLS), measured by echocardiography, can predict difficulty separating from cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in adults undergoing elective cardiac surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can preoperative GLS measurement predict difficult separation from CPB? Are GLS …
Cohort Study - SBRT for VT Radioablation
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) contributes to over 350,000 sudden deaths each year in the US. Malignant VTs involve an electrical "short circuit" in the heart, formed by narrow channels of surviving tissue inside myocardial scar. Current treatment for VT consists of either implantable defibrillators (ICDs), suppressive drug therapy, catheter ablation or …
Long Term Evaluation of Cardiac Arrhythmias After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation -The LOCATE Registry
The purpose of the Long term Evaluation of Cardiac Arrhythmias after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (LOCATE) Registry is to perform long-term ambulatory monitoring of patients with severe aortic stenosis who undergo trans-catheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and develop new onset conduction system abnormalities post-procedure that do not require urgent permanent …
Peri-Procedural Transmural Electrophysiological (EP) Imaging of Scar-Related Ventricular Tachycardia
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) contributes to over 350,000 sudden deaths each year in the US. Malignant VTs involve an electrical "short circuit" in the heart, formed by narrow channels of surviving tissue inside myocardial scar. An important treatment is to use catheter ablation to "block" the channel that forms the circuit. …
Dapagliflozin in STEMI
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of SGLT2i in limiting infarct size in patients with STEMI referred for PPCI. Eligible STEMI patients enrolled into the trial will be randomized to a SGLT2i or placebo. Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) imaging will be used to …
Technological and Patient-tailored Innovations for Maximizing Effectiveness of Cardiac Arrest Resuscitation
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) affects 275,000 people in Europe every year. In Italy alone, 50,000 people experience OHCA annually, with only 9% surviving. Half of the survivors suffer severe brain damage. Immediate CPR and defibrillation by bystanders before the ambulance arrives can save lives, but often, CPR starts only when …
