Feasibility and Efficacy Study of the CardioPulmonary Management (CPM) System in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure ( BETA )
The primary purpose for this study is to support the hypothesis (pilot data) that the use of the CPM system reduces the rate of HF related events and the related healthcare cost. The study will also measure the impact on quality of care and patient satisfaction. In order to support …
A Nurse-Led Weight Monitoring Intervention For Heart Failure Quality of LIfe and Self-Care
Ongoing self-care for heart failure is essential to avoid complications and hospitalization. Supportive strategies are needed; however, patients with heart failure may find many interventions complicated and overwhelming. The purpose of this pilot study is to implement a simple weight tracking tool (Wake and Weigh) to affect self-care and quality …
Pulsed Field Ablation for Post-Infarction Ventricular Tachycardia
ASCEND is a randomized controlled open-label pilot study evaluating the safety and effectiveness of pulsed field ablation (PFA) with the novel FARAPOINT catheter compared to the standard radiofrequency (RFA) ablation with FlexAbility SE or ThermoCool ST catheter for ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) in the patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy and …
Impact of Coronary Sinus Flow Reducer on Coronary Microcirculation and Myocardial Ischemia
The increasing number of coronary revascularization procedures, coupled with improvements in drug therapy, has significantly extended the lifespan of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, there remains a significant number of CAD patients who experience disability due to chronic refractory angina pectoris. These patients typically have severe diffuse CAD …
Effect of Left Posterior Pericardiotomy for the Prevention of POAF
This study is planned to evaluate the effect of left posterior pericardiotomy for the prevention of postoperative atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting. Eligible patients will be randomized to be created or not to be created the left posterior pericardiotomy at the end of the operation, and the incidence …
Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors for Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot Patients for Enhancement of Cardio-Pulmonary Status Trial
Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF) is the leading cause of congenital cyanotic heart disease worldwide, involving up to 7-10% of congenital heart disease. With advances in open-heart surgical repair techniques and medical therapies, there is a significant increase in patients with rTOF surviving till late adulthood. One sequalae that nearly …
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.
Assessment of Cutting-Balloon Angioplasty With Everolimus-Eluting Stent(EES) in the Treatment of Coronary Calcified Lesion(CCL) Guided by Intravascular Ultrasonography(IVUS)
The study seeks to address the clinical question of how effectively a novel cutting balloon (Wolverine™) can modify calcified lesions for stent implantation in comparison with a non-compliant (NC) balloon, particularly when used alongside a bioabsorbable polymer-coated everolimus-eluting coronary stent (Synergy™). Most previous researches on cutting balloons focused on only …
Effect of Beet Juice Supplementation on Vascular and Inspiratory Muscle Function
Older adults with coronary artery disease (CAD) have impaired vascular and inspiratory muscle function. The objective of this study is to examine the effect of beet juice supplementation on vascular and inspiratory muscle function in older adults with CAD.
The Effect of Structured Lifestyle Modification and Yoga Practice on Metabolic Processes Associated With Cardiovascular Disease
The aim of the prospective randomized single center study is to evaluate the effect of a short-term (16 weeks) yoga program on micro RNA (miRNA) expression and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in patients with CVD.
