This study aims to evaluate the effect of angiotensin receptor/neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI) on improving ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) in patients with coronary artery disease undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) through a randomized controlled clincial trial.
"Despite significant advances in pharmacologic and device-based therapies, heart failure (HF) remains a major public health burden, with persistently high rates of hospitalization, impaired quality of life, and excess mortality-often exceeding those of leading malignancies. Prognosis in HF is shaped by its underlying etiology: ischemic HF often responds to revascularization …
This observational study is being done to learn more about heart attack recovery in patients supported with the Impella 5.5 left ventricular assist device (LVAD) as part of their standard of care. There are three stages in this study: screening, treatment and post treatment. There will be two phases of …
The purpose of this study is to compare changes in cardiac structure and function, biomarkers, and patient reported outcomes between adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD) randomized to angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) therapy vs placebo.
Evaluation of potential nerve damage after radial CAG/PCI.
Background: Fluid overload, especially pulmonary congestion, is one of the main contributors into heart failure (HF) readmission risk and it is a clinical challenge for clinicians. The Remote dielectric sensing (ReDS) system is a novel electromagnetic energy-based technology that can accurately quantify changes in lung fluid concentration noninvasively. Previous non-randomized …
The primary objective of this pilot study is to document the percentage achievement in effective HR control (average nighttime HR \< 70 bpm) during WCD use in a cohort of female patients with cardiomyopathy in an outpatient setting using continuous heart rate (HR) trends data from the WCD to optimize …
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of strict blood pressure control versus conventional care in patients with asymptomatic moderate to severe aortic valve stenosis. The study is a randomized (1:1), open label, controlled intervention trial. Hypothesis Strict BP control for 12 months reduces the progression of …
Rationale. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and heart failure (HF) coexist in approximately one third of patients presenting with one of these conditions. From a clinical standpoint, impaired tissue oxygen (O2) delivery stands as a common pathological mechanism of these cardiorespiratory diseases. Recent evidence suggest that muscle and cerebral blood …
We will test the hypothesis that increasing skin wetness, and thus evaporative cooling, will attenuate the increase in core body temperature and accompanying cardiac stress during heat wave conditions in individuals with congestive heart failure. Secondly, we propose that wearing a water-saturated T-shirt will also be beneficial to attenuate the …
