Filter by:Patients with cardiac pathology and arrhythmias including those who have indications for pacemakers implantation will be included in the study. We will determine the influence of pacemaker implantation with the localization of the ventricular electrode in the top of the right ventricle or the middle third of the right ventricle according to echocardiographic and electrocardiographic parameters, congestive heart failure progression, patients' quality of life and follow-up therapy of patients with identified myocardial fibrosis with existing pacemaker. Study of changes in echocardiography, electrocardiography, myocardial fibrosis markers, the quality of life of patients will allow to choose the most optimal localization of the ventricular electrode during implantation of the permanent pacemakers system in order to improve the quality of life of the patients.
This study is proposed herein is to gather clinical data on the safety and performance of the CRYOF device. Specifically, data from this study will be used for submission to regulatory authorities in Europe, China and other geographies as needed.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major public health problem: it impairs quality of life and independently heightens the risks of ischemic stroke, heart failure and all-cause mortality. AF is a common reason for presenting to emergency departments (ED) in Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC) and is associated with frequent hospitalization. Additionally, inter-facility hospitalization rates for AF vary across KPNC. Improvements in modifiable components of ED AF care could potentially reduce low-yield hospitalizations and the associated costs, patient inconveniences, and complications that can ensue. Real-time clinical decision support systems (CDSS) can transform entrenched physician practices and improve patient outcomes. The investigators will conduct a stepped-wedge cluster randomized trial of a CDSS intervention across 13 KPNC EDs for the comprehensive management of acute AF with the following three aims: 1) To evaluate the impact of the CDSS intervention on index hospitalization rates; 2) To evaluate the impact of the CDSS intervention on ED AF rate and rhythm control process-of-care metrics; and 3) To evaluate the impact of the CDSS intervention on AF stroke prevention actions for eligible participants at the time of ED discharge. The investigators hypothesize that the CDSS intervention will safely reduce index hospitalization rates, improve rate and rhythm control process-of-care metrics, and increase stroke prevention actions for eligible participants at ED discharge and within 30 days.
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a prevalent cause of ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA) in young patients. Its role as a cause of cerebrovascular events in the older population is more controversial because of other competing causes are more frequent in the elderly. Recent randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have shown that PFO closure is associated with a 59% relative risk reduction in the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke. As such, the number of PFO closure procedures are expected to increase substantially in the upcoming years. Real world data (RWD) informing on the medical management, the risk of stroke recurrence, incident atrial fibrillation, and other outcomes in stroke patients with PFO, with and without PFO closure, will become crucial for understanding how results from RCTs are translated into clinical practice globally. The IMPROVE (International Multicenter Patent foRamen OVale & strokE) Registry is an observational, multicenter, international registry of men and women with an ischemic stroke or TIA. The aim is to enroll 8,800 patient-years at ≥50 sites in ≥20 countries. The IMPROVE Registry will provide important information about the management and related outcomes of patients with ischemic stroke or TIA and PFO throughout different regions of the world and across a wide spectrum of healthcare systems.
Primary objective: To compare the safety and efficacy of closure strategies post venous access procedures. Hypothesis: We anticipate that the use of a venous closure device will decrease the time to hemostasis (TTH), time to ambulation (TTA) and time to discharge (TTD) compared to conventional methods of closure following venous access procedure.
The purpose of this study is to better understand the following aims: 1. Aim 1: To evaluate the rate of recurrent Atrial Fibrillation (AF)/Atrial Flutter (AFL) in hematopoietic stem call transplant (HCST) patients with incident AF/AFL identified during the initial 30 days of the transplant 2. Aim 2: To evaluate incident episodes of 1) stroke/TIA; 2) other thromboembolic events (not stroke/TIA); 3) Heart failure events; 4) Ischemic heart events 3. Aim 3: To evaluate overall implantation safety in this population
Atrial fibrillation (AF), a condition where the top chambers of the heart beat irregularly, is a major health problem. The long-term goal of this project is to use a personal, mobile heart monitor to help patients better recognize recurrent AF and improve patients' ability to better manage their condition. A total of 300 patients with a history of AF will be included in the study, with 150 patients receiving an iPhone with the mobile monitoring device and educational text messaging and the remaining 150 patients continuing with their regular medical care. Each patient will be included in the intervention period for 6 months. The rate of recurrent AF and treatments meant to manage AF and other heart conditions will be determined for both groups. Patients in both groups will complete a series of questionnaires at the start and end of the 6 month study period to look at differences in quality of life and knowledge of AF.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the Thermocool SF ® system is at least as effective and safe as regular 8mm catheters and irrigated tip catheters in the treatment of cavo-tricuspid isthmus dependent atrial flutter.
The Fetal Atrial Flutter and Supraventricular Tachycardia (FAST) Therapy Trial is a prospective multi-center trial that examines the efficacy and safety of standard prenatal antiarrhythmic treatment. Study components of FAST include three prospective sub-studies to determine the efficacy and safety of commonly used transplacental drug regimens in suppressing fetal AF without hydrops (Randomized Clinical Trial (RCT) A), SVT without hydrops (RCT B), and SVT with hydrops (RCT C). All RCTs are open label phase III trials of standard 1st line therapy, which either is started as monotherapy (no hydrops) or as dual therapy (hydrops).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate major adverse bleeding risks, and thromboembolic event rates post radiofrequency (RF) ablation. The primary goal is to establish safety of dabigatran use for peri-procedural anti-coagulation after left atrial catheter radiofrequency ablation, or cryoablation procedures.
