Initial Double Sequential External Defibrillation in Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest
Double Sequential External Defibrillation (DSED) represents an alternative treatment of refractory ventricular fibrillation (rVF) in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The procedure consists of two defibrillators that administer shocks at the same time. Currently, the procedure is not initiated before at least three failed attempts with one defibrillator. This can delay …
Remote ECG Monitoring Post TAVI
The DRAGON TAVI study is a multicenter, prospective, open, randomised trial, which will enrol 250 patients, randomized 1:1 to the study group (continuous 30-day ECG monitoring with visits triggered by ECG findings) and standard care (ie. control group, which will receive the standard post op 24-48h ECG monitoring and a …
Brain Blood Flow and Cerebral Autoregulation Monitoring in Critically Ill Children
This study uses a non-invasive (external) ultrasound test called Transcranial Doppler (TCD) to measure how blood flows through the major arteries of the brain of children receiving care in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). TCD is already used for clinical reasons in many children, but it is not part …
Coronary Rotational Atherectomy Elective vs. Bailout in Severely Calcified Lesions and Chronic Renal Failure
The current role of the rotational atherectomy is for non-dilatable coronary lesions and for severely calcified lesions that may interfere with optimal stent expansion. Severely calcified coronary lesions are associated with worse outcomes. In this regard, chronic kidney disease is associated with severely calcified coronary arteries. Some evidence suggests that …
Staged Kidney Transplantation During Combined Heart/Kidney Transplantation
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ex vivo machine perfusion with staged implantation of kidney allografts during combined heart/kidney transplantation.
PRimary IndividualiZed Evaluation of Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Diabetes Mellitus Using hemoTAG
To evaluate the proportion of diabetic mellitus patients with CV events as measured by HEMOTAG.
Reversibility of Cardiac Conduction Disturbances Following TAVI
The management of patients with conduction disturbances (CDs) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is unclear, especially in those with de novo electrocardiographic CDs (ECG-CDs) such as left bundle branch block. In this study, the investigators will evaluate the incidence of retrogradation of infra-Hisian CDs in patients with de novo …
Pediatric Cardiomyopathy Mutation Analysis
The goal of this protocol is to obtain information from individuals with cardiomyopathy and from their families in order to elucidate the molecular genetics of this disorder. This will provide the basis for future genetic counseling as well as contribute to elucidating the biology of normal and abnormal cardiac function.
Ventricular Arrhythmias in Patients Undergoing Mitral Valve Surgery
Study objectives: To assess the impact of mitral valve surgery for mitral regurgitation on ventricular arrhythmic burden and surrogate markers of fibrosis in patients with arrhytmogenic mitral valve prolapse (MVP) from baseline to 6 months after surgery To characterize the molecular landscape of arrhytmogenic MVP Study design: -Prospective explorative observational …
Cardiomyopathies and Heart Muscle Diseases: Cardiac Imaging in the Evaluation of Myocardial Fibrosis Transition
Heart scarring, also known as fibrosis, plays a major role in a lot of heart muscle abnormalities. These abnormalities of the heart muscle can lead to major issues such as symptoms of heart failure, dangerous heart rhythm disturbances and even death. However, a lot of these conditions are still not …
