Filter by:This is an observational study in which data from Japanese people with chronic heart failure who will be receiving vericiguat is studied. Chronic heart failure (HF) is a long-term condition where the heart does not pump blood as well as it should. Heart failure can lead to other serious medical conditions, and it can lead to hospitalization or death. The drug vericiguat works by increasing the activity of an enzyme called soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC). The sGC enzyme helps regulate the heart and blood circulation. Vericiguat is already available and approved for doctors to prescribe to people who have heart failure. A limited number of patients have been treated with vericiguat. Therefore information about its safety in a broader population and especially among Japanese people as well as for prolonged periods of treatment is still missing. In this study, the researchers want to learn more about how safe vericiguat is if used in Japanese people with long term HF. To see how safe vericiguat is, the researchers will collect the medical problems the participants have during the treatment with vericiguat under real-word conditions. They will particularly focus on the following: - high blood pressure - any medical problems due to combination of the study treatment vericiguat with nitrates and nitric oxide (NO) donors or with PDE5 inhibitors - medical problems in participants with liver problems or with reduced kidney function - medical problems in participants with low blood pressure below <100 mmHg or with symptoms due to low blood pressure - any medical problems after prolonged periods of treatment with vericiguat. These medical problems are also known as "adverse events" (AEs) which may or may not be related to the study treatment. In addition, this study will gather information about how long vericiguat treatment can prevent death caused by cardiovascular problems such as heart attack and stroke compared to standard of care. Cardiovascular death (safety specification) will be assessed in a comparative manner with the control arm as the primary objective The participants will receive their treatments as prescribed by their doctors according to the approved product information. The data for this study will be collected using an electronic case report form (eCRF) and medical records. The following data from the study participants will be documented during visits that take place in routine practice: - underlying and concomitant diseases, - prior medication, - treatment duration, - laboratory parameters, - vital signs, - results of cardiac exams (e.g. cardiac ultrasound), - heart failure related hospitalization events, - adverse events. The data collection will start from the beginning of vericiguat/standard of care treatment and will cover a time period of 2 years unless no further information can be expected from the participant at a given point in time, or death. The total study duration will be six years, including data analysis and cleaning.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of high-intensity interval training and moderate intensity continuous training on cardiopulmonary functions in chronic heart failure.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single and multiple doses at escalating dose levels of mRNA-0184.
The progressive ageing of the population of industrialized countries is accompanied by a dramatic increase in the prevalence of chronic multi-pathologies. In the general population, HF is associated with a higher prevalence of T2DM compared with patients without HF and with marked regional differences observed in Europe and the rest of the world. In clinical trials of chronic HF patients, the prevalence of T2DM is approximately 30% in patients with reduced or preserved ejection fraction and rises to as much as 45% in hospitalized patient registries. A complex drug regimen is often associated with low adherence in patients with HF and T2DM and poor adherence is associated with adverse clinical events. Similarly, adherence to recommendations regarding lifestyle changes, such as increasing physical activity, is often limited despite these changes' favourable effects on the patient. Therefore, interventions are needed to improve all these factors and optimize adherence. The inclusion of telemedicine (telenursing, telerehabilitation, mHealth) focused on health and correct behaviour can create opportunities to implement customized and scalable solutions in populations at risk. The project will aim to evaluate for patients with chronic diseases with a complex phenotype (heart failure and type II diabetes mellitus) the effectiveness of a remote surveillance program with particular attention to lifestyle changes.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of allogeneic induced pluripotent cell derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) in treating patients with worsening ischemic heart failure undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery. After screening, iPSC-CMs will be administrated intramyocardially in consented and eligible patients undergoing open-chest CABG surgery and the estimated population size for the study will be 32 patients.
Aim of this prospective, interventional, single-center, randomized study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intermittent hypoxic-hyperoxic training (IHHT) as a rehabilitation method in patients with cardiovascular pathology in the early period after coronavirus infection. The study will include 60 patients with cardiovascular pathology who underwent confirmed by laboratory tests COVID-19 infection 1-3 months ago with the degree of lung lesion CT3, CT4, who were admitted to the University Clinical Hospital No. 4 of I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University. The patients will be divided into 2 groups (intervention and control groups). Intervention group will inhale hypoxic gas mixtures (10-12% O2) followed by exposure to a hyperoxic gas mixture with 30-35% O2 5 times a week for 3 weeks, while control group will undergo a simulated IHHT. All the patients will undergo identical laboratory and instrumental testing before IHHT, after the last IHHT procedure, in a month after the last IHHT procedure and in 6 months. Estimated result of the study is to confirm or refute the hypothesis of the study that a three-week course of IHHT in patients with cardiovascular pathology in the early period after coronavirus infection can improve exercise tolerance, as well as the quality of life and psychoemotional status, and affect the dynamics of laboratory and instrumental parameters.
The study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of the early initiation of canagliflozin treatment in hospitalized heart failure patients with volume overload (warm-wet) who require the use of I.V loop diuretic during the hospitalization period.
The objective of this prospective, multicenter controlled study is to assess the feasibility of a patient-tailored implantation by creating a cloud-based pre-procedural multimodality CRT-roadmap by integration of 3D images from 3D activation sequence from ECG, and coronary venous anatomy from cardiac computed tomography. This CRT-roadmap will be used to guide LV lead placement to a coronary vein in an electrically late-activated region. Study Hypothesis: At least 75% of patients undergoing a CRT implantation guided by non-invasive electrical and venous anatomy assessment (XSPLINE technology) will show a reduction of left ventricular end-systolic volume of 15% or more at 6-month evaluation.
Study Description: Background: Well-known fact that the number of cardiovascular diseases is on the rise during influenza epidemic. It is conceivable that influenza may precipitate plaque rupture, increase cytokines with central roles in plaque destabilization and trigger the coagulation cascade. A number of studies have shown that the risk of cardiovascular complications (ACS, stroke, CHF decompensation, cardiac arrhythmias) seem to be reduced following influenza vaccination. The Influenza Vaccination After Myocardial Infarction study data published in September 2021 have demonstrated a significant decrease of mortality (by 40%) during 1 year of follow-up in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) who has been vaccinated during the first 72 hours. Objective: the objective is to find out whether influenza vaccination protects against cardiovascular events and death in ACS & CHF patients vaccinated during hospitalization Methods: Population: 400 patients aged 65 and older with acute coronary syndrome are randomized 1:1 and followed up via telephone calls and registries (AIS "Mortality"). Patients will be included in the study in cardiology departments № 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 of the State Budgetary Healthcare Institution "Samara Regional Clinical Cardiology Dispensary named after V.P. Polyakov" Intervention: Influenza vaccination. Control: group of unvaccinated patients. Planned study period is 1 year.
A flexible energy metabolism matched with the contractile needs of the muscle is essential to a normal heart. Loss of metabolic flexibility and cardiac systolic efficiency coexist in Sepsis-induced Myocardial Dysfunction (SIMD), a phenomenon attributed to mitochondrial dysfunction and mishandling of energy substrates. Cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) could allow to quantify non invasively the selection of energy substrates by the hearts in sepsis and will be associated in parallel with functional status (ultrasound cardiography), injury biomarkers, apelinergic and metabolomic blood profiles. Comparisons will be performed between septic and acute on chronic heart failures, with or without systolic dysfunction.
