Clinical and Diagnostic Features of Endocarditis
The burden of endocarditis has changed in the last years due to an increase in percutaneous valve procedures offered to a more fragile, and old population. Therefore an update in epidemiology data is necessary. The Observational prospective multicenter study to characterize the cLinical ANd DiagnoStiC feAtures of endocarditis in the …
Evaluation of Home-based Sensor System to Detect Health Decompensation in Elderly Patients With History of CHF
Sensorum Health (Sensorum) is conducting a pilot study to determine if Sensorum's proprietary passive sensor network can be used to identify signals of early health decompensation in subjects prior to a hospitalization for chronic disease exacerbation or other ambulatory care sensitive conditions. Successful early detection would provide a window of …
Pulmonary Determinants of Cardiorespiratory Fitness in Fontan Patients
This study will examine and record the patient's medical information and medical records (patient files, computer records, etc.). Physical examination, echocardiographic, electrocardiographic, laboratory, radiological, etc. evaluations are made during the routine controls of the patients. Within the scope of this study, no attempt will be made on the patients, no …
iFR Guided Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery
The expected outcome of better and improved patency of bypass grafts and its direct relation to pre-operative iFR measurements of stenosis as compared to direct visual physiology of stenosis in the coronary angiogram. To establish the correlation between the use of intracoronary physiology and improved graft patency at 12 months …
Ultrastructural Characteristics of Mitochondria in Cardiomyocytes in Heart Failure
According to modern concepts, mitochondrial dysfunction may be the fundamental basis for the development and progression of CHF, including in patients undergoing myocardial revascularization. The processes of mitochondrial fusion, division and mitophagy are aimed at maintaining cellular homeostasis. A change in the balance of these processes can lead to the …
Evaluating Pulse Oximetry Bias in Children With Darker Skin Pigmentation
In this prospective study, the investigators will enroll 154 children with arterial lines to determine the accuracy of pulse oximeters in children with darker skin pigmentation. Studies in adults suggest pulse oximeters may overestimate the true level of oxygenation in the blood as measured directly by co-oximetry. However, pediatric data …
ChAracterization of Patients and Treatment OUtcomes in Severe Tricuspid Regurgitation
The goal of this observational study is to characterize the population of patients qualified for transcatheter tricuspid valve interventions (TTVI). It is expected to: Describe the profile of patients qualified for TTVI Establish the most common causes for disqualification from TTVI Evaluate the immediate and long-term efficacy of TTVI Evaluate …
Stunning in Takotsubo Versus Acute Myocardial Infarction
The Stunning in Takotsubo versus Acute Myocardial Infarction (STAMI) Study Background: Acute myocardial stunning, herein defined as the reversible loss of myocardial function, occurs in both takotsubo syndrome (TS) and ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), and can be life-threatening in both conditions. However, despite typically having considerably more pronounced myocardial stunning, …
Clinical Phenotypes in Pericarditis: IL-1RA Antibodies and suPAR Levels
This study aims to investigate the pathophysiology of recurrent pericarditis (RP) by testing for neutralizing autoantibodies against interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) and measuring soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) levels. The hypothesis is that these tests will provide insights into both the inflammatory and non-inflammatory phenotypes of RP, shedding light …
Lifestyle Behaviours of Women Newly Diagnosed With Heart Failure
Heart Failure occurs when the heart's ability to pump blood is reduced. Heart failure can lead to symptoms of breathlessness, fatigue and ankle swelling, and result in health complications including damage to other organs (e.g. kidneys), reduced function and quality of life. Although the symptoms of heart failure are similar …
