First-In-Human Clinical Study for Treatment of Severe Mitral Valve INsufficiency With Epygon™ TRanscatheter Mitral VAlve System
The EPYGON VALVE is an innovative mitral valve, intended for valve replacement of a native mitral valve through a minimally invasive implant procedure by means of a dedicated implant device. The EPYGON VALVE is a bio prosthesis, composed by a functional assembly of bovine pericardium on a NiTinol stent. The …
To Evaluate Safety and Effectiveness of Transcatheter Aortic Valve System in Patients With Severe Aortic Stenosis
To Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of Transcatheter Aortic Valve System ( Chengdu Silara Medtech Inc. ,Chengdu, China)in Patients with Severe Aortic Stenosis with or without Moderate or Lower Degree Regurgitation
Correlation Between an Impedance Cardiography Test for Decompensation and the Development of Left Ventricular Replacement Fibrosis
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of impedance cardiography (ICG), the HYPERGRAPH test, in detecting left ventricular decompensation in patients with aortic stenosis, compared to cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging findings. The study aims to obtain usable ICG test data on six patients with aortic stenosis …
Effect of Colchicine on the Progression of Aortic Valve Stenosis - A Pilot Study
COPAS pilot is a pilot single center double blinded randomized study to determine the effect of targeted anti-inflammation therapy using colchicine, on valvular calcification activity using imaging, i.e. aortic valvular NaF uptake. The current proposal uses a randomized design to evaluate the effect of colchicine vs. placebo on valvular calcification …
Myocardial Protection Effect of Simvastatin Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
Statins have been used to low cholesterol to prevent and treat coronary artery diseases. It was also reported that statins could protect endothelial function and cardiac function during coronary artery bypass graft. The investigators recent found simvastatin reduced myocardial injury during noncoronary artery cardiac surgery in single medical center. The …
Short-term Exposure to High Altitude in Patients With Asymptomatic Aortic Stenosis
Aortic stenosis is a common disease with increasing prevalence due to an aging population. Aortic valve replacement is indicated for symptomatic severe aortic stenosis. Leisure activities and tourism at high altitude destinations are popular but may impose a higher risk to patients with aortic stenosis. Pathophysiological considerations led to an …
Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair for Inotrope Dependent Cardiogenic Shock
Mitral regurgitation may be seen in the setting of cardiogenic shock. Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) has been shown to improve outcomes in patients with chronic heart failure. Observational studies suggest improvements in clinical outcomes in patients with mitral regurgitation in the setting of cardiogenic shock; however, there remains a lack …
Warfarin Patient Self-management Implementation in the US Healthcare System
In the US, patients receiving warfarin therapy are rarely allowed to engage in patient self-management (PSM) which is less burdensome, less expensive, and safer than standard clinic-directed warfarin management. The long-term objective of our application is to improve the safety of ambulatory warfarin therapy through increasing the implementation of PSM.
Bicuspid Aortic Valve Replacement: Evaluation of Transcatheter Versus Surgery-Pilot Trial
The study protocol is a randomized trial of standard of care therapies for severe aortic stenosis (AS) in patients with a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV). Namely, the therapies to which patients will be randomized will be transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) or surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR), in patients deemed …
CardioHeartConnect: Commercially Available Fitness for Cardiac Rehabilitation
This trial evaluates the effectiveness of CardioHeartConnect, an eight-week mobile cardiac rehabilitation intervention using Peloton fitness modules, compared to educational control among patients recovering from transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). The study aims to improve physical activity, functional capacity, quality of life, and cardiovascular health using wearable devices and a …
