Cardiac events can often result in debilitating and persistent psychological symptoms. A key question involves whether optimal treatment of cardiac-induced posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) reduces PTSD symptoms and thereby may offset the risk of recurrent or worsening cardiovascular disease. Cardiac-induced PTSD 1) is prevalent, 2) features symptoms unique to internal …
The main objective of the study is to identify the optimal surgical timing for the treatment of intraventricular defects after acute myocardial infarction.
The EPISODE VT trial is designed to compare efficacy and safety of two modalities for interventional treatment - endocardial ablation and endo-epicardial ablation in a population of patients with post myocardial infarction (ICD 10 - I25.2) ventricular tachycardias (ICD 10 - I47.2), who are protected by an implantable cardioverter-defibrilator (ICD) …
Patients hospitalized for acute cardiac conditions-including acute myocardial infarction, acute heart failure, pulmonary embolism, arrhythmias, and hypertensive emergencies-represent a heterogeneous population at very high risk of recurrent cardiovascular events. Influenza infection may act as a trigger for adverse cardiovascular events. Given the persistently low influenza vaccination uptake despite evidence-based benefits …
The mini-crush technique is one of the leading 2-stent techniques frequently applied by interventional cardiologists to treat complex bifurcation lesions. In the last 20 years, many technical innovations and iterations of mini-crush technique have been developed, and it maintains its popularity among invasive cardiologists. Moreover, mini-crush and double kissing-crush techniques …
Acute myocardial infarction (MI) remains one of the leading causes of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide. It most commonly occurs due to acute coronary artery occlusion following rupture or erosion of an atherosclerotic plaque and subsequent thrombus formation. Despite significant advances in reperfusion strategies and guideline-directed pharmacological therapy, patients who …
The goal of this observational study is to analyze the relationship between various biomarkers (GDF-15, MR proADM, and Presepsin) in patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) who also have Pneumonia and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and have received Influenza vaccinations. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is …
The development of symptomatic heart failure is frequently preceded by a pre-clinical period of structural remodeling in the heart. The remodeling process driving this transition, however, remains poorly understood. The investigators hypothesize that imaging the diffusion of water in the heart with MRI will allow its microstructure to be resolved. …
This study investigates a new way to diagnose severe heart attacks in patients who have a specific electrical heart pattern called a Left Bundle Branch Block (LBBB). When patients present to the emergency department with chest pain, doctors routinely perform an electrocardiogram (ECG) to check for a heart attack. However, …
The purpose of this research study is to validate (check the accuracy of) laboratory assays, intravenous catheter insertion, and equipment or devices and their reproducibility, which is necessary to perform high quality research on chronic diseases, nutrition, and metabolism (the process by which a substance is handled in the body) …
