The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the inflammatory response associated with cardiometabolic diseases, and whether these can be reduced by ex vivo treatment with therapeutic agents. Briefly, the study involves two populations: healthy volunteers and severely obese patients undergoing weight-loss surgery. The main questions the study seeks …
This project will use a mixed design and will be conducted at the West Parry Sound Health Centre. Based on similar studies there is an expected 10% drop-out rate so 20 participants per group will be invited to aim to have 15 finish. Total participants invited over the two-year study …
Half of children with congenital heart disease develop specific neurodevelopmental disorders. Neurodevelopmental disorders are the leading cause of morbidity in these children. They can be increased by perioperative complications, the family and economic socio-economic environment and the level of parental stress. The stress perceived by parents of children with congenital …
The study will compare standard ultrasound images to high frame rate ultrasound images in patients with heart disease or with a low risk of heart disease to see if a higher frame rate of ultrasound adds to the information obtained from standard ultrasound.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare 2 different timepoints for clamping the umbilical cord at birth for term-born infants with a prenatal diagnosis of congenital heart disease (CHD). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does Delayed Cord Clamping at 120 seconds (DCC-120) or Delayed Cord …
Congenital heart disease (CHD), the most common birth defect, is present in nearly 1% of the population. CHD patients are associated with intense resource utilization and premature death in adulthood. The risk of premature death is linked with reduced exercise capacity, a finding consistently noted in youth with CHD. Reduced …
The EVIDENTIA Registry is a multicenter study designed to evaluate valvular heart disease (VHD) using cardiac CT. It aims to assess cardiac valve anatomy, function, and myocardial characteristics through detailed CT analysis. Assessing the accuracy of cardiac CT in evaluating cardiac structure, volume, function, and myocardium in VHD patients. Comparing …
This is a mono-center observational ambispective study in which adult patients with congenital heart disease evaluated at our institution will be enrolled. The primary endopoint is to assess the clinical and echocardiographic predictors of adverse events during follow-up (death, arrhythmias, cardiac hospitalization). The secondary endpoints are: 1) evaluation of the …
The VHD PV loop study intends to assess invasive right ventricular to pulmonary artery (RV-PA) coupling in patients with valvular heart disease (VHD). Invasive RV-PA coupling is measured by using conductance catheters, the gold standard assessment for ventricular physiology. Several non-invasive parameters have been reported as surrogates for this complex …
This study will compare the effects of two different types of training on exercise capacity in women with coronary heart disease (CHD). Participants will be randomized into either the virtual high-intensity interval training (HIIT) or the virtual moderate-to-vigorous intensity continuous training (MICT). After randomization, patients will exercise twice a week, …
