Remote Symptom Review in Patients With Implantable Diagnostic Holter
To study the clinical and organizational benefit of implementing a methodology for monitoring patients receiving an implantable diagnostic BIOMONITOR III holter and successive models, consisting of remote review of alerts sent by the device via the HOME MONITORING remote monitoring platform and the transmission of relevant patient symptoms through the …
Technological and Patient-tailored Innovations for Maximizing Effectiveness of Cardiac Arrest Resuscitation
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) affects 275,000 people in Europe every year. In Italy alone, 50,000 people experience OHCA annually, with only 9% surviving. Half of the survivors suffer severe brain damage. Immediate CPR and defibrillation by bystanders before the ambulance arrives can save lives, but often, CPR starts only when …
Measurement of Airway Opening Index During Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest: The Lazarus AOI Trial.
Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a leading cause of death worldwide. Despite constantly improving resuscitation techniques, the chances of survival remain limited. During cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), a closure of the airway may occur, impeding ventilation. This phenomenon also complicates the interpretation of the end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) in the capnogram. The …
Drug-Coated Balloon Primary PCI in ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Drug-eluting stent (DES)-based primary percutaneous intervention (pPCI) has been established as the standard of care for patients presenting with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), having demonstrated superiority over thrombolysis, plain balloon angioplasty, and bare-metal stents. Recently, the use of drug-coated balloons (DCB) has expanded dramatically across a variety of anatomical …
Ticino Artificial InTelligence integrAtioN for Occlusion Myocardial Infarction
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether an artificial intelligence (AI)-based ECG interpretation tool improves the early diagnosis and treatment of occlusion myocardial infarction (OMI) in adults presenting with suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who do not meet traditional ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) criteria. The main questions …
TeleheartCR vs. Clinic-Based Cardiac Rehabilitation After Acute Coronary Syndrome
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is an effective evidence-based intervention that improves outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), but many eligible patients do not complete the program. A hybrid CR intervention that combines telehealth, home-based, and clinic-based components (TeleheartCR) may increase participation by addressing barriers to access while maintaining the …
Hydrogen's Feasibility and Safety as a Therapy in ECPR
The purpose of this project is to test the feasibility and safety of inhaled hydrogen gas (H2) administration as a rescue therapy during cardiac arrest requiring extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR, i.e. mechanical circulatory support). Under exemption from informed consent, patients undergoing refractory cardiac arrest in the cardiac ICU at a …
Immunoinflammatory Response in Post Cardiac Arrest Syndrome (PCAS)
This is a prospective, observational study to investigate molecular mechanisms mediating the systemic inflammatory process, and changes to metabolism, and their impact on brain injury, survival, and functional outcomes after cardiac arrest. Investigators have shown that cardiac arrest induces changes in the numbers and properties of circulating immune cells, shifting …
Study of Circulating Monocytes in Patients With Ischemic Vascular Disease
The purpose of this research study is to discover the functions of circulating white blood cells, called monocytes, and associated circulating substances in heart attack and ischemic stroke patients. Ischemic Strokes (clots) occur as a result of an obstruction within a blood vessel supplying blood to the brain. A type …
The Sarcopenia Study
The goal of this cross-sectional study is to investigate the prevalence of sarcopenia in patients with Heart Failure. The main question it aims to answer is: Whether there is a difference in the prevalence of sarcopenia across the spectrum of HFpEF (Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction) and HFrEF (heart …
