Filter by:This study will assess the feasibility and efficacy of using serum assay developed by Quest Diagnostics to detect the presence of beta blockers, specifically carvedilol and metoprolol succinate, in patients with heart failure.
This is a two-armed, parallel-design, pre-/post-intervention assessment study. The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial for ED GOAL on a cohort of 120 older adults with serious illness to collect patient-centered outcomes and determine preliminary efficacy on increasing advance care planning engagement (self-reported and/or in the electronic medical record) one month after leaving the emergency department. The investigators will also conduct qualitative interviews with participants of ED GOAL.
The JVPHome is a novel medical device that utilizes machine vision in order to facilitate assessment of jugular venous pressure (JVP) height relative to the sternal angle with the ultimate goal of enabling remote JVP monitoring. The current study aims to evaluate the ability of an enhanced version of the JVPHome to enable remote identification of JVP height relative to ultrasound among congestive heart failure (CHF) patients when the device is applied by the study team in the clinic.
This trial will study the safety and efficacy of intravenous infusion of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of congestive heart failure and angina
Heart failure is the primary cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Currently drug treatments for heart failure manage the symptoms, but not restore the loss cardiomyocytes due to the very limited regenerative capability in the adult heart. Novel reparative therapies that replace the cardiomyocytes loss are highly demanded to restore the cardiac function. The main purposes of this explanatory study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of the catheter-based endocardial delivery of human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes in patients with congestive heart failure.
Invasive pulmonary capillary wedge pressure measurements using a Swan-Ganz catheter (SGC) is considered the gold standard for cardiac output (CO) monitoring. In this prospective study, we will compare CO measurements between a PPG-based wearable monitor and a SGC in ambulatory CHF patients.
Acupuncture is believed to increase blood pressure in people who struggle with low blood pressure. This is a common problem facing people with heart failure, and sometimes these people need to take medications to artificially increase their blood pressure. This study is designed to determine if using acupuncture in people with heart failure can improve their blood pressure enough to not require medications to artificially increase blood pressure.
Chronic heart failure (CHF) is characterized by limited exercise performance, which is mainly determined by disease-specific factors, such as diminished cardiac output, abnormal ventilatory response, and low perfusion in skeletal muscles, which lead to skeletal muscle dysfunction.1 Exercise intolerance and symptoms may lead to activity restriction and further functional deterioration with the progression of CHF. There is some evidence that disease-specific self-report measures more quantify clinically relevant domains than measures of general health status and are generally more sensitive to clinical change. aim of the study is to investigate the validity and reliability of the PMADL-8 questionnaire in the Turkish population.
In this project, Institute of Bioengineering & Bioimaging (IBB), A*STAR would like to collaborate with Massachusetts General Hospital to aggregate patient data and to further develop its software algorithm using machine learning and statistical models for predicting exacerbations and deterioration on 60 patients with cardiopulmonary diseases.
