Sodium Glucose Co-Transporter 2 (SGLT2) and STEMI
The purpose of the research is to determine whether a medication called dapagliflozin will improve the heart's function and reduce its enlargement after a heart attack. Participation in this study will involve taking the medication dapagliflozin (or a placebo) once daily for six months, one cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) …
Trans-coronary Cooling and Dilution for Cardioprotection During Revascularisation for ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction
A heart attack (myocardial infarction) occurs when an artery supplying blood to the heart is suddenly blocked resulting in damage to the heart muscle. Patients presenting to hospital with a heart attack undergo an immediate angiogram (x-ray of the arteries in the heart) and are usually treated immediately with a …
Lymphatic Organs and Myocardium After Myocardial Infarction
The adaptive immune response plays an important role in myocardial healing and remodeling after acute myocardial infarction in patients. Therefore, the involved lymphocytes represent a novel target for therapeutic interventions. However, there are no established blood-derived biomarkers to predict the quantity and quality of the adaptive immune response to cardiac …
Effect of L-Carnitine on Biomarkers of Myocardial Reperfusion Injury in Patients With STEMI
The study aims is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of L-Carnitine on biomarkers of myocardial reperfusion injury in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary PCI by the assessment of nitrotyrosine as an oxidative stress marker and Matrix metallopeptidase-2 (MMP-2) as a cardiac fibrosis marker
GSI Cardiac on Revolution Apex - US
The goal of this clinical data collection study is to collect raw CT scan data using a new GSI Cardiac mode on GE HealthCare's Revolution Apex CT system. Two groups of participants will be enrolled: Participants scheduled to undergo a Coronary CT Angiography (CCTA) as part of their standard of …
Peri-Procedural Transmural Electrophysiological (EP) Imaging of Scar-Related Ventricular Tachycardia
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) contributes to over 350,000 sudden deaths each year in the US. Malignant VTs involve an electrical "short circuit" in the heart, formed by narrow channels of surviving tissue inside myocardial scar. An important treatment is to use catheter ablation to "block" the channel that forms the circuit. …
Cardiac Radioablation for VT
The goal of this interventional study is to determine the minimum dose necessary for successful cardiac radioablation of refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT) and to study the utility of target volume definition using Delayed Enhancement Cardiac MRI (DE-CMR) .
Dapagliflozin in STEMI
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of SGLT2i in limiting infarct size in patients with STEMI referred for PPCI. Eligible STEMI patients enrolled into the trial will be randomized to a SGLT2i or placebo. Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) imaging will be used to …
Cohort Study - SBRT for VT Radioablation
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) contributes to over 350,000 sudden deaths each year in the US. Malignant VTs involve an electrical "short circuit" in the heart, formed by narrow channels of surviving tissue inside myocardial scar. Current treatment for VT consists of either implantable defibrillators (ICDs), suppressive drug therapy, catheter ablation or …
Tailoring Post Discharge (The TPD Study)
This randomized control trial seeks to better understand the educational needs of Acute Coronary Symptom (ACS) patients including the optimal timing and method of delivery as well as linkages with appropriate community resources and supports are important for cardiac patients to self-manage post hospital discharge to improve outcomes. While there …
