Elastic Band-Progressive Resistance Training (EB-PRT) for Sarcopenia Among Heart Failure Patients
Heart failure (HF) is a complicated clinical syndrome caused by structural and/or functional cardiac abnormalities that result in ineffective myocardial pumping. HF management has placed more emphasis on improving the prognostic factors which determine these poor clinical outcomes. More recently, the prognostic role of sarcopenia in HF has received particular …
Mechanisms of Diuretic Resistance in Heart Failure, Aim 2
Randomized placebo-controlled, double-blind, double-dummy, crossover design testing combinations placebo/placebo, bendroflumethiazide/placebo, amiloride/placebo, and bendroflumethiazide/amiloride added to bumetanide.
Interleukin-1 Blockade in Acute Myocardial Infarction to Prevent Heart Failure
Patients who have a heart attack are at high risk for future development of heart failure ('weakening of the heart'). The researchers believe that the reaction of the heart muscle to injury (inflammation) during a heart attack may be contributing to the risk of heart failure. The current study will …
The Inorganic Nitrate and eXercise Performance in Heart Failure (iNIX-HF)
The goals of this project are to determine the effectiveness of acute (2 hours after a single dose) and chronic (after 6 weeks of once-a-day dosing) KNO3 treatment (10mmol) vs. placebo on quadriceps muscle power and on aerobic exercise performance (V̇O2peak) in patients with HFrEF (left ventricular ejection fraction <45%). …
Lymphatic System Stimulation in Heart Failure
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to obtain preliminary data on the effects of lymphatic exercise training in patients with heart failure. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Does performing lymphatic exercise decrease fluid overload symptoms (shortness of breath, lower legs swelling, fatigue), thoracic fluid content, …
Physiological Versus Right Ventricular Outcome Trial Evaluated for Bradycardia Treatment Upgrades
Guidelines for patients having first-time implants advocate that even when heart function is only mildly impaired, modern pacing approaches should be utilised to avoid the potentially damaging effects of RV pacing to preventing symptoms from pacing induced or worsened cardiomyopathy. However, once a traditional (RV) pacemaker is implanted, development of …
Utility of Some Novel Biomarkers of Patients With Chronic Heart Failure
Clinical and Economic study of some new biomarkers in chronic heart failure.
Evaluation of the Jarvik 2000 Left Ventricular Assist System With Post-Auricular Connector--Destination Therapy Study
This investigation will be conducted as an interventional intention-to-treat clinical study in a population of end stage heart failure patients who meet specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. The multi-center study will be prospective, dual-armed, non-blinded (open-label) and randomized, comparing a treatment group receiving the Jarvik 2000 LVAS with Post-Auricular Connector …
Evaluation of the Effect of Liposomal L-Arg and Vit C Integration on Mitochondrial Function in Patients With Heart Failure
Pilot study to assess the effect of L-Arg and Vit C liposomal supplementation on mitochondrial function in patients with heart failure, through analysis of the viability of mitochondria isolated from peripheral blood of mononucleate cells (PBMC).
Safety and Efficacy of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-derived Engineered Human Myocardium as Biological Ventricular Assist Tissue in Terminal Heart Failure
The BioVAT-HF trial will test the hypothesis that cardiomyocyte implantation via engineered heart muscle (EHM), the proposed investigational medicinal product (IMP; designated "Biological Ventricular Assist Tissue" or BioVAT), results in sustainable remuscularization and biological enhancement of myocardial performance in the failing heart. EHM are constructed from defined mixtures of induced …
