Echocardiography in Nursing Home
The study seeks to explore the implementation characteristics (acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, adoption, fidelity, penetration, implementation cost and sustainability) of systematic echocardiography in nursing homes and its impact on rates of heart failure flare-up and unscheduled hospitalization at 12 months among included nursing homes.
Goal-directed vs. Empirical Tranexamic Acid Administrationin Cardiovascular Surgery
The present study is a multi-center randomized prospective placebo-controlled non-inferiority trial. The study's primary objective is to compare the amounts of postoperative bleeding using two different TXA administration strategies: empirical TXA administration vs. viscoelastic test-based goal-directed TXA administration in cardiovascular surgery. The secondary objectives include comparing the incidents of hyper-fibrinolysis, …
Acoramidis Transthyretin Amyloidosis Prevention Trial in the Young (ACT-EARLY) Study in Asymptomatic Carriers of a Pathogenic TTR Variant
Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) is a disease where the normally occurring transthyretin (TTR) protein falls apart and forms amyloid, a sticky plaque- like substance that accumulates in different organs in the body and can cause damage to the organ. There are two ways that the TTR protein can fall apart. One …
NT-proBNP Selected Prevention of Cardiac Events in Diabetic Patients
Purpose and rationale The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of high dose Renin-Angiotensin System (RAS)-antagonists and beta-blocker treatment for the primary prevention of cardiac events in a population of patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with no evidence of a preexisting cardiac disease. An additional …
Investigation of the BrioVAD System for the Treatment of Left Ventricular Heart Failure
The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the BrioVAD System by demonstrating non-inferiority to the HeartMate 3 Left Ventricular Assist System when used for the treatment of advanced, refractory, left ventricular heart failure.
Trial to Evaluate Safety And Effectiveness of Mechanical Circulatory Support in Patients With Advancing Heart Failure
The purpose of TEAM-HF IDE clinical trial is to evaluate safety and effectiveness of the HeartMate 3 LVAS compared to guideline directed medical therapy (GDMT) in a population of ambulatory advanced heart failure patients who are not dependent on intravenous inotrope.
Comparison of the Outcomes of Single vs Multiple Arterial Grafts in Women
The central hypothesis of ROMA:Women is that the use of multiple arterial grafting (MAG) will improve clinical outcomes and quality of life (QOL) compared to single arterial grfating (SAG). The specific aims of ROMA:Women are: Aim 1: Determine the impact of MAG vs SAG on major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular …
The PulsePoint Study
This randomized controlled trial will evaluate whether use of the PulsePoint system increases bystander CPR or defibrillator use compared to standard dispatch procedures in patients who suffer non-traumatic, out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in a public location. Half of all suspected cardiac arrest 9-1-1 calls in a public location will receive PulsePoint …
A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial to Investigate the Value of Coronary CT Angiography in the Understanding and Management of Coronary Calcium (The Optimal Trial)
The OPTIMAL randomized clinical trial has been designed to compare two imaging strategies and to test the hypothesis that a calcium modification strategy informed by coronary CT angiography (CCTA) will improve procedural efficiency and effectiveness compared with the current standard of care (IVUS-guided PCI) while achieving similar clinical outcomes in …
Respiratory Muscles and Work of Breathing in Children
Respiratory muscle testing allows a quantitative assessment of inspiratory and expiratory muscles in children of any age with primary or secondary respiratory muscle impairment, in order to better understand the pathophysiology of respiratory impairment and guide therapeutic management. The use of an invasive technique (esogastric probe) makes it possible to …
