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 …
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, …
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 investigate the ability of the SpectroCor Tissue Oxygenation Monitor and its accessory SpectroCor Sensor to observe and monitor changes in cardiac oxygen availability in pediatric patients during open-heart surgery. Patients of less than 18 years old who, and whose guardian(s), when applicable …
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 …
SickKids and UHN have developed MedlyPeds which is a smart phone application designed to remotely monitor patients with heart disease. This is a feasibility study which will enroll up to 30 patients with different types of heart disease to see which patient types may benefit the most from MedlyPeds if …
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 evaluates a sensor-controlled digital game (SCDG) to motivate self-management behaviors of weight monitoring and physical activity in adults with heart failure (HF). Half of the participants will receive the SCDG app and weight monitoring and physical activity sensors and the other half will receive only the weight monitoring …
