Characterization of Patients With Cardiomyopathy to Identify Critical Patients Candidates for Cardiac Transplantation
The study aims to identify new diagnostic and prognostic markers for CMP that can help predict disease progression. In particular, the study will focus on microRNAs (miRNAs) and spatial transcriptomics, which are emerging techniques that may provide insights into the underlying disease mechanisms. By understanding these markers, the investigators hope …
Stress Echo 2030: the Novel ABCDE-(FGLPR) Protocol to Define the Future of Imaging
With stress echo (SE) 2020 study, a new standard of practice in stress imaging was developed and disseminated: the ABCDE protocol for functional testing within and beyond CAD. ABCDE protocol was the fruit of SE 2020, and is the seed of SE 2030, which is articulated in 12 projects: 1-SE …
Cardiac REhabilitation COhort at the Medicine Campus DaVos to invEstigate Recovery
The RECOVER study, titled Cardiac Rehabilitation Cohort at the Medicine Campus Davos for Exploration of Recovery, is a prospective, non-interventional, monocentric cohort study conducted at the Hochgebirgsklinik Davos. The study is sponsored by Medicine Campus Davos AG and the Kühne Foundation, with an estimated start date in July 2025 and …
Magnetic Resonance Elastography as a Method to Estimate Stiffness of Soft Tissues
Magnetic resonance elastography is a novel non-invasive MRI technique to obtain stiffness of soft tissues such as liver, heart, kidneys, etc. In this imaging technique a person is laid in an MR scanner and a paddle (plastic drum) is put on the area of interest to send sound vibration via …
The Evolution of Systemic Microvascular Reactivity in Heart Transplant Patients
The evolution of systemic microvascular reactivity may aid in the comprehension of cardiovascular physiology in heart transplantation patients, and possibly suggest the non-invasive evaluation of skin microcirculation as an ancillary tool in the clinical evaluation of these patients.
IMPact of Donor Heart Function on Recipient Outcomes - a prospectiVE Study to Increase the Utilization of Donor HEARTs
Severe heart failure is a diagnosis with a very poor prognosis. Heart transplantation is the best treatment for terminal heart failure but this type of treatment is limited by the number of available organs. About 20-25% of possible donor hearts are not considered for transplantation because they have some form …
Precision Medicine in the Management of Heart Transplant Recipients
The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate that a multiparametric approach, based on the integration of biomolecular, histological, imaging, and clinical information, along with the use of machine learning methods, can identify among heart transplant patients those at higher risk of rejection, infectious events, and chronic graft dysfunction. …
Exercise MRI to Evaluate Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Children With Heart Disease
There are many barriers to heart-healthy lifestyles in pediatric patients with acquired and congenital heart disease. Investigators want to further understand how participants heart and skeletal muscles work together during exercise and evaluate the impact on cardiac function. To do this, the investigators will use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to …
A Study of AI in Cardiac Transplant in Echocardiographic Analysis (ORACLE)
The purpose of this research is to detect episodes of rejection versus non-rejection after cardiac transplant and the diagnostic accuracy of an Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm using the data from an ECG (electrocardiogram) and Cardiac Ultrasound (Echocardiogram and/or point of care ultrasound).
ZeroHeart Biopsy - Prediction of Deceased Donor Heart Transplant Performance From Organ Donors Using Pre-Transplant Biopsies - A Pilot Study
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate whether molecular analysis of donor heart biopsies taken at the time of organ removal ("Time Zero") can help predict the future function and rejection risk of the transplanted heart in adult transplant recipients. The main questions it aims to answer are: …
