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.
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 …
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 …
The goal of this observational study is to assess the diagnostic performance of 3D Stent to detect stent under-expansion in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. The main question it aims to answer is: The study hypothesis is that 3DStent technology will offer a comparable assessment of stent expansion compared to …
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome with increasing incidence and prevalence, associated with high morbidity, mortality, and economic impact, despite therapeutic advances. Myocardial fibrosis is a common feature across different pathophysiological processes and plays a key role in HF development, with growing research interest specifically in non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy …
To determine the incidence of arterial inflow problems and venous outflow problems as causes of impaired renal function and/or treatment-resistant hypertension after kidney transplantation, when all kidney-transplant recipients in Denmark are evaluated according to uniform, well-defined clinical criteria. To investigate the efficacy and safety of catheter-based balloon treatment (percutaneous transluminal …
The TERdeblue-S study is a feasibility study of robotic remote echocardiography, not only in terms of technology but also in terms of its integration into a telemedicine system to improve access to the heart failure management system in the Guadeloupe archipelago. The main objective of this study is to study …
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled trial comparing two strategies for optimizing stent implantation during bifurcation stenting of the left main coronary artery (LM): an intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided approach versus a "IVUS-trained eye" approach based on angiographic assessment and operator experience. All patients receive the same stent brand and procedure …
This is a Phase 2 study evaluating the positron-emitting radiopharmaceutical 18F-mFBG as an imaging agent for quantification of myocardial sympathetic innervation. The study will examine a group of stable patients with heart failure (HF) from ischemic cardiomyopathy. All subjects will have left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤35% and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators …
Acute heart failure (AHF) is the leading cause of hospitalization in people over 65, with the group with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) being the most closely related to aging. Among its comorbidities, sarcopenia stands out, and its assessment requires measurement of muscle mass. Muscle ultrasound is an accessible and economical …
