Heart Attack Blood Oxygen Therapy Trial
'Heart attack', known as acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, is a leading cause of heart failure and death. A lack of blood and oxygen damages the heart muscle potentially causing heart failure and premature death. During the past 25 years, despite intensive research efforts, few, if any new medicines have …
COMPASSION S3 - Evaluation of the SAPIEN 3 Transcatheter Heart Valve in Patients With Pulmonary Valve Dysfunction
This study will demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards Lifesciences SAPIEN 3/SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) Systems in subjects with a dysfunctional right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) conduit or previously implanted valve in the pulmonic position with a clinical indication for intervention.
buRst-supprESsion TO Stop Refractory Status Epilepticus Post-cardiac Arrest
RESTORE is a randomized clinical trial investigating the safety and feasibility of using EEG treatment targets (burst suppression vs. seizure suppression) for post-cardiac arrest refractory status epilepticus treatment.
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 …
Efficacy and Safety of Edoxaban in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation and Mitral Stenosis
This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of the edoxaban and the warfarin in atrial fibrillation patients with mitral stenosis. The study design is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, investigator initiated phase 2 trial. The patients were randomly assigned to Edoxaban or Warfarin groups. Primary outcome was a composite …
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 …
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
Cardiac Sympathetic Denervation for Prevention of Ventricular Tachyarrhythmias
The purpose of this research study is to examine the effect of cardiac sympathetic denervation (CSD) surgery on life threatening abnormal heart rhythms called ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation that can lead to sudden cardiac death. Subjects will be asked to participate in this research study if they have recurrent …
Fear of MOVEment After MI and AF - InterneT Patient Education
The overall aim with the project is to evaluate if a digital patient group-education can reduce kinesiophobia and promote physical activity in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and/or atrial fibrillation (AF) Research questions Can a digital patient group-education reduce kinesiophobia and promote PA in patients with MI and/or AF? Is …
PLAI-AF Trial: Hybrid Endo-epicardial Partial Left Atrial Isolation vs. Endocardial Ablation in Patients With Persistent Atrial Fibrillation
In patients with symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF), current clinical guidelines recommend ablation for rhythm control. While percutaneous ablation has good results in patients with paroxysmal AF, it is not clear which is the best technique in patients with persistent or long-standing persistent AF. Our group performed the first randomized study …
