Transcatheter Mitral Valve Repair for Inotrope Dependent Cardiogenic Shock
Mitral regurgitation may be seen in the setting of cardiogenic shock. Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) has been shown to improve outcomes in patients with chronic heart failure. Observational studies suggest improvements in clinical outcomes in patients with mitral regurgitation in the setting of cardiogenic shock; however, there remains a lack …
Evaluation of the Prognostic Impact of a Neuro-vascular Examination Associated With Cerebral MRI in the Acute Phase of Infectious Endocarditis
Infectious endocarditis (IE) is a serious condition with an annual incidence of 3 to 10 per 100,000 people. Brain infarctions complicate approximately 20-40% of endocarditis. Brain MRI can detect the presence of recent ischemic lesions and asymptomatic microbleeds. Preoperative brain imaging is part of the recommended assessment in the management …
ElectroPhySiological Characterization Of the Arrhythmia Substrate for Sudden Cardiac Death PrEdiction
EP-SCOPE is a prospective, multicentric, non-randomized pilot study that aims to estimate the risk of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia through use of advanced electrophysiological studies in patients with ischemic or non-ischemic cardiomyopathy with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <50% and risk factors of ventricular arrhythmia, otherwise not considered for implantation of …
Tolerability and Safety of CARDIOMEMS™ Intracardiac Continuous Cardiac Hemodynamic Monitoring Device in Patients With Cardio Renal Syndrome With Severe Renal Impairment
Renal failure is present in 40% of heart failure patients, and is one of the main comorbidities of heart failure. Follow-up with pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) monitoring has shown a reduction in mortality and frequency of hospitalization in patients with heart failure alone in the CHAMPION trial. Patients with New …
Temporary MCS With the iVAC 2L Transaortic Device in High-risk PCI
Patients with coronary artery disease and undergoing high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are at increased risk of hemodynamic instability and poor outcomes. Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices may offer hemodynamic stabilization during PCI, potentially improving short- and long-term outcomes. The study rationale is to investigate the safety and clinical efficacy …
Effect of Dual Bronchodilation With Umeclidinium/Vilanterol on Patients With COPD, Hyperinflation and Heart Failure
Double-blind, randomized, two-period crossover, placebo-controlled, single-center study, to determine the effect of umeclidinium/vilanterol 55/22 μg compared with placebo on the increase in left systolic chamber function during exercise in patients with COPD, lung hyperinflation and mild to moderate left ventricular dysfunction.
The HIMALAYAS Trial and Lifestyle Changes in Pediatric, Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Survivors Study: A Multicentre Randomized Controlled Trial
Pediatric, adolescent and young adult cancer survivors (PAYA-CS) are at higher risk of cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality. This is a consequence of prior cancer-related therapies that have the potential of producing cardiac dysfunction, reducing cardiorespiratory fitness (reduced VO2peak) and psychosocial morbidities (i.e., anxiety and depression). A reduction of physical …
Prevent Cardiac Surgery Associated AKI Trial
Prevent CSA-AKI (Cardiac Surgery Associated Acute Kidney Injury) trial is a double blinded randomized controlled trial, 242 patients undergoing elective cardiopulmonary bypass surgery (CPB)will either receive a placebo or daily 1200 mg of Co enzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and 1000 mg of Glutathione (GSH), the first dose will be given the …
Venous Ultrasound Guided Organ Decongestion in Patients Hospitalized with Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of VExUS guided organ decongestion compared to standard of care in patients hospitalized with acute decompensated heart failue (ADHF). 180 patients will be randomly assigned to either intervention (VExUS) arm or standard of care (SOC) arm. In …
Breast cancEr, FITness and ExeRcise for Heart Health: The BE-FITTER Study
The chemotherapy medications used for breast cancer treatment are important for achieving a cure, but a potential side effect is that they can cause a decline in functional capacity (reduced exercise tolerance and impaired physical function) and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. The risks of decreased functional capacity and …
