Florbetaben for Imaging of Vascular Amyloid
The Primary Objective is to determine if a new nuclear tracer (named 18F-Florbetaben) used with nuclear imaging (PET imaging) can detect inflamed plaque in patients with recent ACS or stroke/TIA.
Valve Performance of the SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA Valve: A Prospective Registry With Central Echocardiography Analysis.
The issue of valve durability has become one of the most important aspects in the TAVR field in recent years since transcatheter aortic valve replacement has been progressively applied to younger patients with a low co-morbidity burden. The SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA valve represents the last generation of the SAPIEN …
Cardiac Arrest Bundle of cARE Trial
An out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a sudden event where the heart stops beating and a person becomes unresponsive. During this event, vital organs in the body receive no blood flow, causing them to shut down. Without intervention to restart the heart, a person effectively dies. In the UK, around 60,000 …
Effect of Fan Application in Preventing Ticagrelor-Associated Dyspnea
This study will be conducted in the coronary intensive care unit of Dr. Siyami Ersek Chest, Heart and Vascular Surgery Training and Research Hospital. It aims to investigate the effect of hand fan therapy on ticagrelor-associated dyspnea in patients receiving ticagrelor.
Transcatheter Mitral and Tricuspid Interventions: a Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Study
Mitral and tricuspid valve disease represents an increasing challenge in the management of patients with heart failure and other cardiovascular diseases. In recent years, the introduction of transcatheter techniques for valve repair and replacement (TVI) has revolutionised the treatment of these diseases, particularly for patients at high surgical risk or …
Investigation of Cardioversion Versus Therapeutic Ablation for Persistent AF (ORBICA-AF)
The main aim of the research is to investigate whether patients undergoing pulmonary vein isolation with catheter ablation for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) will have lower rates of AF recurrence than those treated by DC cardioversion without an ablation procedure.
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 …
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.
