The purpose of this protocol is to redefine the Heart Institute BioRepository (HIBR) to facilitate Investigator-initiated and programmatic basic, translational, clinical and outcomes research. For the purposes of this protocol, "tissue" will refer to any gross specimen obtained from a patient, including but not limited to blood, cardiovascular tissue, urine, …
This project is a single-center clinical evaluation study designed to validate a non-invasive mattress-based smart monitoring system. The system is intended for installation on standard hospital beds to provide continuous, contact-free monitoring of vital signs, including heart rate, respiration, body temperature, and posture, in patients with cardiovascular diseases. The system …
This study aims to establish a comprehensive, long-term clinical registry infrastructure for heart and brain vascular diseases (cardiovascular diseases and stroke) at Samsung Medical Center. In South Korea, these diseases are a leading cause of death, with a rapidly increasing burden due to an aging population and changing lifestyles. Despite …
The Genetics and Vascular Health Check study (GENVASC) is a large study run in conjunction with Clinical Commissioning Groups and Primary Care practices across Leicester, Leicestershire and Northamptonshire. The purpose of GENVASC is to help determine whether gathering genetic information can improve the prediction of risk of Coronary Artery Disease …
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital heart anomaly in the general population (1-2% of all individuals). In affected people, the aortic valve (the structure ensuring one way blood flow between the heart's left pumping chamber, the left ventricle and the main body artery, the aorta) consists of …
The identification of myocardial fibrosis in term of myocardial scar and extracellular matrix remodelling assessed respectively with the technique of Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE) and with the quantification of the Extracellular Volume Fraction (ECV) in Cardiac Magnetic Resonance has been demonstrated to be crucial in the diagnosis of different cardiomyopathy …
The SwissPR study is to continuously monitor patient characteristics and short- and long-term benchmark quality measures and outcomes of patients participating in a 12-week ambulatory CR program.
Despite the benefits of physical activity (PA) to prevent cardiovascular disease and other chronic diseases, few adult Latinas meet PA guidelines. Given the central role of churches within the Latino community and their commitment to the well-being of their members, they are ideal settings for health promotion. Evidence-based interventions (EBIs) …
The purpose of this observational, multi-center prospective, post-market registry is to confirm real-world device safety and performance, to ensure the continued acceptability of identified risks, and detect emerging risks.
The goal of this to determine the effect of tailored exergaming for inactive patients with heart failure to reduce their sedentary time, improve their daily physical activity, exercise capacity, decrease frailty and improve health-related quality of life. Participants will, on a background of standard guideline-directed medical therapy patients, be randomised …
