INTEgRated Health CARE for Patients With Frailty and Heart Failure
Frailty, an aging-related syndrome of physiological decline characterized by marked vulnerability to adverse health outcomes, has attracted increasing attention in cardiology due to the growing elderly population with heart failure. Frail patients are mainly excluded from large cardiovascular intervention studies, and clinical trials addressing frailty and showing an impact on …
Isolated Resistance Training and Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation in Patients With Femoral Intra Aortic Balloon Pump.
The objective of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the effects of a standardized exercise program alone versus the same program combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation in patients undergoing heart failure . The main questions it aims to answer are: Assessing the ultrasonographic parameters: echo intensity (echogenicity), cross-sectional area, …
Learning by Heart: The Effectiveness of an EF Training Program for Pre-schoolers With a Severe CHD
Advances in prenatal and neonatal care have improved outcomes in children with severe congenital heart disease (CHD). With the increase in survival, neurocognitive problems such as executive functioning (EF) impairments have become more apparent in these children. EF problems have cascading negative effects on a child's development. New insights in …
A Clinical Trial to Define the Best Strategy for the Management of Heart Failure in Elderly Patients
Heart failure (HF) and Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients are frequently not administered renin-angiotensin aldosterone system inhibitor (RAASi) therapies at recommended doses due to hyperkalaemia, despite proven mortality and morbidity benefits. Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (SZC) is a nonabsorbed potassium binder proven to lower serum potassium (S-K) and maintain normokalaemia. The …
SPAGO: Sirolimus Paclitaxel Angiographic Gain Objective
The objective of the study is to compare angiographic outcomes of Selution sirolimus coated balloon (MedAlliance) versus SeQuent Please Neo paclitaxel coated balloon (Bbraun) for the treatment of de novo coronary artery lesions in medium size vessels (\>2.00 mm and ≤3.00 mm) with respect to Net Gain (mm) and Fractional …
Pericoronary Adipocyte Size Gradient
Evaluation of pericoronary adipocyte gradient (PCAT) in relationship with local atherosclerotic changes in a patient undergoing heart transplantation.
Diffusion MRI in Heart Failure
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. …
Drug-Eluting Balloon Treatment vs. Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy for the Treatment of Lipid-Rich Plaques
The goal of this clinical trial is to find out whether treating vulnerable plaques in the coronary arteries with a drug-coated balloon can make them less dangerous than using standard medication alone. The study includes adults with acute coronary syndrome (a type of heart problem caused by reduced blood flow …
His-Bundle Corrective Pacing in Heart Failure
The investigators aim to prospectively evaluate the efficacy and mechanism of benefit of His-bundle pacing enhanced cardiac resynchronization therapy (His-CRT) vs. cardiac resynchronization therapy (BIV-CRT) in patients with heart failure and right bundle branch block (RBBB).
Effects of Left Atrial Appendage Resection and Marshall Ligament Amputation on Clinical Outcome in Patients Undergoing Off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass
Surgical occlusion of the left atrial appendage (LAAO) is sometimes performed during the cardiac surgery to reduce long-term risk of stroke.A previous study found that LAAO may be associated with increased risk of postoperative atrial fibrillation.New-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) after coronary artery bypass graft is related to an increased short-term …
