Observational Study of Patients Undergoing Diagnostic Right Heart Catheterization
The objective of this observational pilot study is to collect HemoCept device data from subjects undergoing diagnostic right heart catheterization (RHC) procedures.
DRAIN: DRainage in Acute Decompensated Heart faIlure With Pleural effusioNs
The goal of this study is to assess if removal of fluid around the lungs (pleural effusion) by a routine procedure called as thoracentesis is helpful to decrease shortness of breath in hospitalized patients with congestive heart failure and have pleural effusion. Researchers will compare thoracentesis with medical therapy to …
iFR Guided Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery
The expected outcome of better and improved patency of bypass grafts and its direct relation to pre-operative iFR measurements of stenosis as compared to direct visual physiology of stenosis in the coronary angiogram. To establish the correlation between the use of intracoronary physiology and improved graft patency at 12 months …
Multicenter Trial of ECMO in Children With Severe Cardiac Failure Using the Cardiohelp System
There are two primary goals of this multicenter clinical trial that combines an FDA device trial and a phase II drug trial in the same study cohort. These two goals are to: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Cardiohelp Device for VA-ECMO (heart-lung support) for up to 30 …
Prognostic Value of Hyperpolarized 13C MRI for Clinical Myocardial Viability
Heart failure due to coronary artery disease represents a significant cause of mortality. The detection of patients eligible for bypass surgery is a pivotal concern. Nevertheless, the optimal approach for patient selection based on conventional imaging scans remains unclear. The proposed method (Hyperpolarized 13C MRI) has gained extensive use in …
Ultrastructural Characteristics of Mitochondria in Cardiomyocytes in Heart Failure
According to modern concepts, mitochondrial dysfunction may be the fundamental basis for the development and progression of CHF, including in patients undergoing myocardial revascularization. The processes of mitochondrial fusion, division and mitophagy are aimed at maintaining cellular homeostasis. A change in the balance of these processes can lead to the …
Study on Optimal Temperature During Cardiopulmonary Bypass (THERMIC-4)
In order to perform heart surgery, a machine called cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), or more commonly known as a heart-lung machine, is used to maintain the circulation of oxygenated blood needed by the rest of the body and its organs. Historically, when a patient is connected to CPB, their body is …
Late Reperfusion With Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Although recommended therapy for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction is primary PCI, it remains unestablished whether patients with a symptom duration of more 12 hours benefit from acute revascularisation. This study aims to investigate whether acute intervention is superior to subacute intervention in these patients.
Efficacy of Carbohydrate Loading in Diabetic Type 2 Patients Undergoing CABG Surgery on CPB
Enhanced recovery after surgery protocols aim to optimize perioperative care and improve surgical outcomes. Preoperative carbohydrate loading has demonstrated benefits in reducing insulin resistance and improving patient outcomes. While non-diabetic patients benefit from this approach, its efficacy in diabetic type 2 patients undergoing CABG remains less understood. This study aims …
Community Exercise Treating Effect on Cardiopulmonary Disease Patients
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if community-based exercise training can benefit patients aged 18 to 85 with diminished cardiovascular and pulmonary function. The main aim of this study is: • Establish a community or home-based fitness training program for patients with cardiopulmonary insufficiency to improve adherence, …
