IEEM-Heat and Heart Failure
We will test the hypothesis that increasing skin wetness, and thus evaporative cooling, will attenuate the increase in core body temperature and accompanying cardiac stress during heat wave conditions in individuals with congestive heart failure. Secondly, we propose that hand \& forearm cooling (via cool water immersion) will also be …
The 3D Stent Study
The goal of this observational study is to assess the diagnostic performance of 3D Stent to detect stent under-expansion in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. The main question it aims to answer is: The study hypothesis is that 3DStent technology will offer a comparable assessment of stent expansion compared to …
⁶⁸Ga-FAPI PET/CT for Cardiac Fibrosis in Heart Failure
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome with increasing incidence and prevalence, associated with high morbidity, mortality, and economic impact, despite therapeutic advances. Myocardial fibrosis is a common feature across different pathophysiological processes and plays a key role in HF development, with growing research interest specifically in non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy …
Comparison Between a Robotic Tele-echo-cardiography Technique and a Standard Echocardiography in the Management of Heart Failure in the Guadeloupe Archipelago Between the University Hospital of Guadeloupe and the Marie-Galante Hospital
The TERdeblue-S study is a feasibility study of robotic remote echocardiography, not only in terms of technology but also in terms of its integration into a telemedicine system to improve access to the heart failure management system in the Guadeloupe archipelago. The main objective of this study is to study …
Propranolol Treatment for Postoperative Chylothorax
Postoperative chylothorax is a serious complication after open heart surgery for pediatric patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). While it was thought to be mechanical injury to the thoracic duct, recent research demonstrated that there are intrinsically abnormal lung lymphatics in CHD patients, and after open heart surgery, the fluid …
Effect of PCSK9 Inhibitors on Coronary Atherosclerotic Plaques Derived From Optical Coherence Tomography
The presence of coronary atherosclerotic vulnerable plaque significantly impacts the clinical outcomes of patients diagnosed with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the influence of PCSK9 inhibitors on stabilizing coronary atherosclerotic plaques in individuals with early-onset CAD, evaluated through optical coherence tomography (OCT), remains inadequately understood. Moreover, there is a notable …
Evaluating the Reach of Clinical Decision Support for Patients With Heart Failure
To work best, clinical decision support tools (CDS) must be timed to provide support when healthcare decisions are made, which includes virtual visits (phone or video). Unfortunately, most CDS tools are either missing from virtual visits or not designed for the unique context of virtual visits (e.g., availability of physical …
Blood Pressure Reduction in Patients With Asymptomatic Aortic VALVE Stenosis
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of strict blood pressure control versus conventional care in patients with asymptomatic moderate to severe aortic valve stenosis. The study is a randomized (1:1), open label, controlled intervention trial. Hypothesis Strict BP control for 12 months reduces the progression of …
Development of Novel Physiological CMR Methods in Health and Disease
Physiological cardiovascular stress test plays a crucial role in the assessment of patients with suspected heart disease. There are several methods of cardiac physiological stress tests and each of them offer varied insight into cardiac physiological adaptation: passive leg raise, intra-venous fluid challenge, pharmacological stressors and physical exercise stress test. …
Lifestyle Medicine: Establishing Clinical Approaches to Chronic Disease for Rural Patients
Developed nations worldwide are currently enduring a health crisis, as chronic diseases continue to decrease quality of life and promote additional disease states or even death for much of the population. Rural populations are at a particular disadvantage, as they lack access to health clubs, wellness programs and similar resources …
