The Effect of phoSPHocreatine on mEdical Emergency Team (Met) tREated Patients
Unexpected deaths and unplanned intensive care unit (ICU) admissions are common during hospital stay and are often preceded by warning abnormalities in patients' vital signs. These abnormalities trigger Medical Emergency Team (MET) activation and up to 15% of patients visited by the MET is admitted to the ICU with an …
Feasibility of a Multifaceted Program to Reduce Cardiovascular Complications of Air Pollution
The main goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a large-scale clinical trial testing a program containing several aspects for reducing the effects of air pollution on cardiovascular health (which is named the hybrid program hereafter) in adult patients (18 years or older) with atherosclerotic …
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.
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 …
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 …
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, …
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 …
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 …
Butylphthalide's Safety and Efficacy for Improving Neurological Function Prognosis in Patients With Cardiac Arrest (BNCA Trial)
Butylphthalide (NBP) is a neuroprotective medication capable of ameliorating neurological dysfunction induced by ischemia, hypoxia, and reperfusion injury in the brain. However, evidence regarding the improvement of neurological function prognosis in patients with return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after cardiac arrest (CA) by NBP is limited. This study aims to …
Cholesterol Self-testing in Patients Post Acute Coronary Syndrome
The pharmacological reduction of LDL-C lowers cardiovascular risk and is therefore a priority in cardiovascular secondary prevention. The achievement of LDL-C target levels in Germany, Europe, and worldwide is inadequate, despite a wide array of lipid-lowering medications. Only a small proportion of post-myocardial infarction patients reach their LDL-C target range …
