EFS of Posterior Leaflet Replacement to Reduce Mitral Regurgitation (United States)
The goal of this early feasibility clinical trial is to learn if the device MR-ace Implant and Delivery System works in patients with moderate or severe mitral valve regurgitation. It will also learn about the safety of the device MR-ace Implant and Delivery System. The main questions it aims to …
Association Between Changes in Aortic Valve Area and Pulmonary Congestion After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
This prospective, single-center observational study aims to evaluate the relationship between changes in aortic valve hemodynamics and pulmonary congestion in patients undergoing elective transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for severe symptomatic aortic stenosis. Pulmonary congestion will be assessed non-invasively using lung ultrasound, with particular emphasis on B-lines, at predefined …
The Asia-Pacific Mitral & Tricuspid Valve-in-Valve/Valve-in-Ring Registry
A significant number of patients with severe mitral and tricuspid valve disease have been previously treated with either valve repair with annuloplasty rings or valve replacement with bioprosthetic/mechanical valves. Over time, these bioprosthetic valves and rings may fail resulting in recurrence of the valvular disease. The technical aspects of a …
Early Triple Lipid-Lowering Therapy With Bempedoic Acid After Acute Coronary Syndrome
This randomized clinical trial will evaluate whether starting bempedoic acid in addition to high-intensity statin therapy and ezetimibe within 72 hours after percutaneous coronary intervention improves low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) control in adults with acute coronary syndrome. Participants will receive either triple therapy with a high-intensity statin, ezetimibe, and bempedoic …
Use of Force Feedback Instruments With the da Vinci Surgical System, Model IS5000 for Mitral Valve Repair
This study aims to test the safety and effectiveness of Force Feedback instruments used during robotic-assisted mitral valve repair with the da Vinci Surgical System, Model IS5000 (dV5).
Edge-to-edge Mitral Valve Repair in ATTR-CM
No previous study has evaluated the effectiveness of transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (TEER) in patients with ATTR-associated cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and significant mitral regurgitation, as this specific patient population was specifically excluded from previous large TEER trials. From a pathophysiological perspective, effective treatment of significant regurgitant volume and consecutive improvement …
Cardiac Biomarkers for the Quantification of Myocardial Damage After Cardiac Surgery
The aim of the study is to clarify whether the perioperative release of the cardiac biomarkers troponin I, troponin T and CK-MB consistently correlate with visualizable myocardial damage, and to what extent these biomarkers are comparable by means of their kinetics and dynamics. Due to the uncertainty regarding the validity …
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. …
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, …
