A Monitoring System Based on the Multifactorial Dynamic Perfusion Index to Predict and Prevent the Onset of Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury After Cardiac Surgery, Based on a Dynamic Collection of Hemodynamic and Clinical Parameters During Cardiopulmonary Bypass
This project is based on a predictive alghorithm (Multifactorial Dynamic Perfusion Index-MDPI) already published and covered by a patent. The MDPI is based on a dynamic collection of 7 different variables during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and provides a probability index for postoperative acute kidney injury. The study design is a …
Risk Underlying Rural Areas Longitudinal Cohort Study (RURAL) Heart and Lung Study
The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSCSA) will serve as the site for the RURAL Study Coordinating Center, led by PI Vasan Ramachandran, MD. The primary function of the Study Coordinating Center (SCC) is to serve as an administrative liaison between all of the RURAL study's …
Goal-directed vs. Empirical Tranexamic Acid Administrationin Cardiovascular Surgery
The present study is a multi-center randomized prospective placebo-controlled non-inferiority trial. The study's primary objective is to compare the amounts of postoperative bleeding using two different TXA administration strategies: empirical TXA administration vs. viscoelastic test-based goal-directed TXA administration in cardiovascular surgery. The secondary objectives include comparing the incidents of hyper-fibrinolysis, …
Registry for the Improvement of Postoperative OutcomeS in Cardiac and Thoracic surgEry
The registry for the improvement of postoperative outcomes in cardiac and thoracic surgery aims to prospectively collect data in order to test the association between various preoperative and per-operative variables ; and several postoperative outcomes such as mortality, shock, redo surgery, sepsis and extracorporeal life-support.
Stroke-Card Registry
Stroke is the second leading cause of death and one of the main contributors to disability. Patients who survive the acute phase of ischemic stroke and those with transient ischemic attack (TIA) are at high risk of subsequent vascular events. Importantly, recurrent strokes are associated with a higher social and …
Accuracy of a Cuffless Photoplethysmography (PPG) Chest-Patch Monitor for 24-hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM)
This study aims to validate the accuracy and reliability of blood pressure (BP) estimates obtained over 24 hours using a PPG-based chest-patch device compared to the gold standard ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) method using an upper arm cuff-based oscillometric BP device, in both hypertensive and normotensive individuals referred by …
The Relationship Between Blood Flow Readings During Surgery and How Well the Graft Stays Open and How Patients Recover Afterward in Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery
The purpose of this study is to learn more about a tool called Transit-Time Flow Measurement (TTFM). TTFM uses sound waves during surgery to check how well blood is flowing through blood vessels. This helps doctors see if the blood flow is good during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), which …
NT-proBNP Selected Prevention of Cardiac Events in Diabetic Patients
Purpose and rationale The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of high dose Renin-Angiotensin System (RAS)-antagonists and beta-blocker treatment for the primary prevention of cardiac events in a population of patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with no evidence of a preexisting cardiac disease. An additional …
Acoramidis Transthyretin Amyloidosis Prevention Trial in the Young (ACT-EARLY) Study in Asymptomatic Carriers of a Pathogenic TTR Variant
Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) is a disease where the normally occurring transthyretin (TTR) protein falls apart and forms amyloid, a sticky plaque-like substance that accumulates in different organs in the body and can cause damage to the organ. There are two ways that the TTR protein can fall apart. One way …
Investigation of the BrioVAD System for the Treatment of Left Ventricular Heart Failure
The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the BrioVAD System by demonstrating non-inferiority to the HeartMate 3 Left Ventricular Assist System when used for the treatment of advanced, refractory, left ventricular heart failure.
