NCT ID: NCT03661827 Completed - Clinical trials for Coronary Artery Disease

Dobutamine vs Adenosine CMR Study

DISCORDANCE
Start date: February 5, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a single centre, prospective diagnostic accuracy study to assess the comparative sensitivity of dobutamine versus adenosine for detection of severe non-infarct epicardial coronary artery stenosis in subjects with reduced LV EF ( EFed referred for clinical coronary angiography for investigation of symptoms or to establish the cause heart failure. Study participants will be identified from hospital angiography referral waiting lists, or already known with CAD and from heart failure outpatient clinics at Glenfield General Hospital. Clinical and CMR data will be collated on-site (at Glenfield General Hospital) from medical records stored and stress cardiac MRI scans at Glenfield General Hospital. The analysis will occur over a 12-month period following study commencement.

NCT ID: NCT03031587 Completed - Cardiac MRI Clinical Trials

Validation of Thermometric Cardiac Imaging by MRI

VAIMTH-IRM
Start date: May 24, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Radiofrequency ablation is the primary treatment for atrial and ventricular arrhythmias resistant to medication. However, the absence of assessment of injury creation during radiofrequency application is an important issue. One of the objectives of the Institut Hospitalo-Universitaire (IHU) Liryc (l'Institut de Rythmologie et Modélisation Cardiaque) is to improve ablation procedures by radiofrequency of cardiac arrhythmias. This is based on thermometric imaging by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) which allows a real time visualization of tissue temperature in all the myocardium with sufficient spatial and temporal resolution to characterize the induced thermal lesion. Today, investigators have developed and validated a new method for cardiac thermometry, associating rapid MRI acquisition technique (4 to 5 slices per heart beat) with online image reconstruction and correction algorithms against residual motion, magnetic susceptibility, drift of the magnetic field, etc... Recent preclinical studies showed a precision of 1°Celsius in the myocardium, largely sufficient to characterize a thermal treatment induced by radiofrequency where typical temperature rises of 40°C are observed during ablation. Temporal evolution of the temperature in each pixel provides access to calculation of the accumulated thermal dose that is a relevant indicator of the induced necrosis. This imaging method must now be evaluated in humans in order to test its robustness under real conditions (presence of arrhythmias, corpulent patients, etc…) and to optimize acquisition parameters and image processing. The aim of this research is thus to obtain specific MRI sequence of images of patients, on which will be evaluated the different algorithms of reconstruction and processing for temperature imaging. This study is a mandatory step in the perspective of future clinical treatments of cardiac arrhythmia under MRI.

NCT ID: NCT02655770 Completed - Clinical trials for Diabetes Mellitus Type 2

Effect of Liraglutide on Diastolic Dysfunction on Cardiac MRI in Type 2 Diabetes Patients

Start date: February 2016
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether liraglutide a GLP-1 analogue are effective in the treatment of diastolic dysfunction in type 2 diabetes patients analyzed by cardiac MRI. Secondary if the treatment has any effect on the perfusion of the heart on a cardiac-MRI.
