Promoting Physical Activity and Fitness Among Underserved Latino Families Living in U.S.-Mexico Border Regions
This study has the goal to increase physical activity and fitness among Latinos in San Diego, California and Mexicali, Baja California (U.S.-Mexico border) since these cities have similar diseases such as high rates of heart disease and obesity. Therefore there is a need to have physical activity programs for children …
To Compare and Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety Between TS-RF System and BRK Transseptal Needles Used for Transseptal Puncture for Left Atrial Access.
The purpose of this study is to compare and assess efficacy and safety between the study device "TS-RF system consisting of a electrosurgical system, general-purpose (TS-RF Generator) and a electrosurgical system electrode, hand-controlled, general-purpose, single-use (TS-RF Needle)" and the control device "needle, puncture, single-use (BRK Transseptal needle)", both of which …
Hot Water Immersion After Myocardial Infarction
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of death in developed countries, including Sweden. Standard treatment for patients after MI includes exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation which contributes to improved cardiovascular function and reduces the risk of hospital readmissions, new cardiovascular events and mortality. Thermotherapy may also have beneficial effects on cardiovascular …
Can Tiny Bubbles Offer an Alternative to Catheters for Assessing Pressures Inside the Heart? Investigating Ultrasound Contrast Agents as Pressure Sensors Against Gold Standard Catheter Pressures in Cardiac Catheterisation Patients.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate if ultrasound contrast agents can be used to estimate filling pressures inside the heart in patients with suspected heart disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is there a strong correlation between the contrast signal and filling pressures inside …
Sex Differences in Barriers and Participation in Physical Activity During and Following Cardiac Rehabilitation
The SPARC study will measure physical activity and functional fitness during cardiac rehabilitation, right after completion of cardiac rehabilitation, and 6 months later. This will help investigators learn if men and women maintain physical activity levels and functional fitness differently during and after they complete cardiac rehabilitation. Participants in this …
One-year Patency Comparison Between Radial Artery and No-touch Saphenous Vein Grafts in Women Undergoing Isolated CABG
The use of a graft from the left internal thoracic artery to the left anterior descending artery has become the gold standard for the indication of coronary artery bypass grafting. However, choosing a graft for the second-best coronary artery, focusing on long-term patency, is still a challenge. The saphenous vein …
Fresh Autologous Whole Blood Transfusion After Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Autologous blood transfused at the end of cardiopulmonary bypass will reduce total blood loss 24 hours after surgery and improve mitochondrial oxygen delivery measured by plasma succinate levels. The study design is a prospective randomized interventional trial of transfusion of fresh autologous whole blood versus standard of care expectant management …
Feasibility Study of the Supira System in Patients Undergoing HRPCI With Support Beyond the PCI Procedure
The objective of this study is to assess the safety and feasibility of the Supira System in heart failure patients with low LVEF, undergoing HRPCI with use of mechanical circulatory support who may benefit from cardiovascular hemodynamic support beyond the PCI procedure.
Comparison of the Effects of Inspiratory Muscle Training and Baduanjin Exercises in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Patients
The study aims to compare the effects of inspiratory muscle training and Baduanjin exercises on pulmonary function, exercise capacity, and quality of life in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. By investigating these interventions, the investigators seek to introduce novel approaches that can enhance pulmonary function, exercise capacity, and overall quality of …
Rectus Sheath Block in Cardiac Surgery
This is a prospective, randomized study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of post-surgical pain control of a type of peripheral nerve block, Rectus Sheath Block. Does the rectus sheath block decrease opioid consumption postoperatively after cardiac surgery? Does the rectus sheath block decrease VAS pain …
