In one of the most severe congenital heart defects, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), the left ventricle is underdeveloped and the prognosis is worse than in most other heart defects. The underdevelopment can occur gradually during fetal growth caused by a narrowing of the aortic valve. At some international centers, …
The purpose of this study is to evaluate long-term effectiveness and safety of patients with coronary disease treated with drug eluting balloon in real world practice.
A biobank has been created to investigate the prognostic value of biomarkers (mainly BNP) in patients implanted with durable mechanical assist devices comparing patients with advanced HF supported by MCS with those who are transplanted and those who remain on optimal medical therapy. Patients will be followed up for 25 …
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a condition where the heart loses its ability to pump blood throughout the body, is a common cause of death in the United States (US). It affects minorities more frequently and appears to causes greater harm than Whites. However, almost all research related to DCM has been …
A biobank within the Swedish national heart failure quality registry SwedeHF.
This retrospective, non-randomized cohort study will evaluate how well the Cordella PA Sensor System works compared to standard medication treatment in people with chronic heart failure. The study will track patients for two years to see if those using the Cordella system have fewer deaths and hospitalizations related to heart …
This clinical investigation will evaluate a novel contactless technology for assessing arterial stiffness and pulse wave characteristics and explore its potential in assessment of coronary artery disease, aortic stenosis and heart failure, in a population-based sample aged 58-72 years. It will be the first in clinical setting, pilot stage, observational …
This is an international, multi-center, prospective, randomized, open-label blinded endpoint study designed to demonstrate that use of the FIRE1 NORM™ System in the management of New York Heart Association Class II/III HF patients is superior for reducing the combined endpoint of worsening HF events and cardiovascular mortality compared to standard …
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is among the leading cause of death and disability. Identification of patients at high risk of cardiovascular events is pivotal. However, current risk stratification based on imaging and known biomarkers is suboptimal. The objective of this proposal is to develop a multicriteria decision model for non-invasive …
Patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) often have concomitant coronary artery disease (CAD) which may adversely affect prognosis. There is uncertainty about the benefits and the optimal timing of revascularization for such patients. There is currently clinical equipoise regarding the management of concomitant CAD in patients undergoing TAVR. Some …
