Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common valvular heart disease, affecting approximately 24.2 million people worldwide (with a higher prevalence in older age groups). Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) is now a well-established strategy in high-risk patients with MR. Globally, over 250,000 patients have benefited from the TEER technique. However, no …
The study is a prospective, crossover, cluster randomized trial in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). The study tests whether cephalosporin plus beta-lactam antibiotic with spectrum for Enterococcus faecalis as per procedural prophylaxis is superior to cephalosporin alone in reducing the composite outcome of bacteremia or death at 6 …
HeartShare is a comprehensive study of heart failure, a common and serious medical condition which occurs when the heart is unable to keep up with the demands of the body, resulting in shortness of breath, fluid retention, and fatigue. HeartShare aims to better classify heart failure into subtypes to help …
Metabolic abnormalities (e.g., hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and obesity) and unhealthy lifestyle behaviors (e.g., smoking and drinking habits, sedentary behavior, sleep disorder and physical inactivity) and unhealthy diet (e.g., high sugar and high fat) are major risk factors for cardiovascular diseases mobility and mortality. The investigators sought to estimate the …
This is an international prospective, multicentre, unblinded, randomised-controlled trial. The primary aim is to assess a targeted screening strategy to detect undiagnosed heart failure in high-risk patients.
Recent studies have shown that transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) can sometimes cause a type of heart failure where the pumping function of the heart is normal, also known as Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) or diastolic heart failure. In this single center diagnostic study, we will evaluate for ATTR …
The goal of this observational study is to create an electronic registry of patients diagnosed with Advanced Heart Failure or Heart Transplant, starting from 01/01/1985 and to assess the incidence of Advanced Heart Failure and Heart Transplant, and characterize patients affected by the first or undergoing the second procedure, starting …
The aim is to investigate whether screening with long-term ECG monitoring in individuals with elevated NT-proBNP leads to a lower incidence of ischeamic stroke and death from vascular causes. The project is a sub-study within the 8th wave of the population based Tromsø Study. Information on previous diseases, medication use, …
Identify factors that contribute to perioperative morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing cardiac surgery that involves cardiopulmonary bypass. Identify factors that affect perioperative morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
The investigator aims to prospectively enroll patients who were referred for coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) for the assessment of stable chest pain (SCP) suspected of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). All patients underwent CCTA according to established guidelines and local institutional protocols. The imaging data were evaluated using different …
