Hyperpolarized MR Imaging with Carbon-13 Pyruvate in the Human Body
Positron emission tomography with 18F fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is the conventional imaging technique to provide information regarding tissue glucose uptake and has been highly clinically successful. However, it cannot assess downstream metabolism, which may be useful in the diagnosis and assessment of treatment response in a variety of diseases. Patients will …
The Role of Right Atrial Ectopy Triggering Ganglionated Plexuses in AF
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common rhythm disturbance of the heart. It can affect people of any age but usually happens as we get older. It can cause palpitations, breathlessness, lethargy, and fainting attacks. It is also associated with an increased risk of strokes. The best treatment for it …
Modifying Working Memory With Brain Stimulation
The investigators want to investigate the effect of rTMS on working memory measured by the N-back task. This is a single case experimental design, ABAB.
Structured Shared Decision Making for Patients Undergoing SAVR or TAVR
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a well-established alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) for the treatment of patients with severe aortic stenosis regardless of surgical risk. While TAVR and SAVR share some of the benefits and risks, they importantly differ with regards to invasiveness, time to recovery, hemodynamics, …
AHEAD: European Feasibility Study of the Cardiovalve Transfemoral Mitral Valve System
This study will evaluate the safety of the Cardiovalve Transfemoral Mitral Valve System with its associated procedure, and observe the device performance in reducing mitral regurgitation. Data collected in this clinical study will include 30-day safety and performance, and long-term clinical outcomes over a follow-up of 2 years.
Cytokine REmoval in CRitically Ill pAtients Requiring Surgical Therapy for Infective Endocarditis (RECReATE)
Infectious endocarditis (IE) and other severe infections are well-known to induce significant changes in the immune response including immune functionality in a considerable number of affected patients. In fact, numerous patients with IE develop a persistent functional immunological phenotype that can best be characterized by a profound anti-inflammation and/or functional …
Antibacterial Tactics Based on Presepsin Level in Thoracic Aorta Surgery Patients
According to the literature, presepsin was recommended not only as an effective indicator in the diagnosis of sepsis in intensive care units, but also as a reliable prognostic marker of postoperative inflammatory processes in cardiac surgery. Previous study carried out in Petrovsky NRCS related to biomarkers in cardiac surgery and …
RescueDoppler- a Disruptive Ultrasound Solution for Improved Outcome After Cardiac Arrest.
RescueDoppler is an innovative, hands-free Doppler system designed for continuous monitoring of blood flow in the carotid artery, distinguishing between the presence and absence of a pulse. It is non-invasive, user-independent, and does not require specialized ultrasound expertise. The primary goal of this study is to assess the feasibility and …
Colchicine After Electrocardioversion for Atrial Fibrillation
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether a 3 month treatment course of low-dose Colchicine decreases the recurrence of Atrial fibrillation (AF) after electrocardioversion (ECV) in patients with AF.
Ablation of Focal Activation in Atrial Fibrillation
Recurrent focal electrical activation (or ectopy) superseding sinus activation is the only mechanism proven to drive paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). However, it has not been possible to show similar focal drivers during AF, owing to the limitations of mapping in persistent AF. RETRO-Mapping has been developed as a method to …
