Anomalous aortic origin of the coronary arteries (AAOCA) is a rare congenital disease and one of the leading causes of sudden cardiac deaths (SCD) in young athletes but also has a lethal presentation in adult age with myocardial infarction, even if not related to obstructive coronary arteries. Unfortunately, diagnostic imaging …
The aim of this observational study was to detect myocardial damage by monitoring high-sensitive troponin I levels in patients undergoing below-knee extremity surgery with peripheral nerve block. The primary question it aims to answer is: How effective are peroperative high-sensitive troponin I levels in predicting myocardial damage? High-sensitive troponin I …
The goal of this observational study is to characterize the population of patients qualified for transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions (TTVI). It is expected to: Describe the profile of patients qualified for TTVI Establish the most common causes for disqualification from TTVI Evaluate the immediate and long-term efficacy of TTVI Evaluate …
To investigate patients suffering from iHF and a LVEF of equal or less than 40% despite best medical treatment safety and efficacy of a single retrograde intra-cardiac venous (i.cv.) injection of UA-ADRCs isolated from lipoaspirate at the point of care, using the Transpose® RT / Matrase System (InGeneron, Houston, TX, …
The Stunning in Takotsubo versus Acute Myocardial Infarction (STAMI) Study Background: Acute myocardial stunning, herein defined as the reversible loss of myocardial function, occurs in both takotsubo syndrome (TS) and ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), and can be life-threatening in both conditions. However, despite typically having considerably more pronounced myocardial stunning, …
This study aims to investigate the pathophysiology of recurrent pericarditis (RP) by testing for neutralizing autoantibodies against interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) and measuring soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) levels. The hypothesis is that these tests will provide insights into both the inflammatory and non-inflammatory phenotypes of RP, shedding light …
Valvular heart disease (VHD), caused by abnormalities in heart valves, can lead to severe complications such as heart failure and death, with approximately 220 million affected patients worldwide. The prevalence of VHD continues to grow alongside the aging global population. Transcatheter heart valve interventions have emerged as minimally invasive alternatives, …
This prospective, multicenter, open-label, randomized-controlled trial compares two treatment strategies in high-risk ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) patients referred for primary ICD implantation. Participants will be randomized to receive either prophylactic VT ablation within three months of ICD implantation or continued medical management. The primary objective is to assess the efficacy of …
The Multicenter Italian Study on Radial Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support (MIRAMACS) is an independent, non-sponsored, nationwide observational study designed to evaluate the clinical outcomes and device performance of continuous-flow ventricular assist devices (VAD), including both second and third-generation axial and centrifugal pumps, in the adult population. Coordinated by the Cardiac …
HOPE for All is a clinical investigation to support the use of hypothermic oxygenated perfusion (HOPE) using a revised XVIVO Heart Assist Transport System in a real- world setting. The trial will investigate the application of HOPE in a broad population of Donation after Brain Death (DBD) and Donation after …
