Filter by:The overall hypothesis is that treatment with the SGLT2 inhibitor Ertugliflozin induces a differential regulation in interstitial fluid vs plasma volume, with more reduction of the volume from the interstitial fluid than from the circulating plasma volume, which results in Ertugliflozin inducing more potent congestion relief with minimal impact on blood volume and organ perfusion. Ertugliflozin reduces the levels of sodium and water from the skin and the interstitial tissue (which improves tissue congestion).
The purpose of this randomized trial is to investigate the effect of the complete removal of pharmacological treatment in patients responding to cardiac resynchronization therapy with recuperated LVEF in terms of imaging parameters (changes in LVEF and LV volume), as well as, clinical parameters that translate into worsening of heart failure.
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
This study has been implemented to evaluate cardiac resynchronization therapy pacemaker (CRT-P) implantations on a same-day basis
SGLT2 inhibitor is a new type of sugar-lowering medicine and is recommended to treat heart failure. eGFR lower than 30ml/min/1.73M2 is contraindication of SGLT2 inhibitor. Heart failure is one of the most frequency CVD events for hemodialysis patients. But hemodialysis patient is unable to be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors as the contraindication. However, solute and fluid clearance are dependent on dialysis, but not renal function in hemodialysis patients. There is no data of SGLT2 inhibitor on hemodialysis patients. The aim of the present study is evaluate the safety of Dapagliflozin in hemodialysis patients with heart failure. This is a randomized, control, open study. 20 hemodialysis patients with heart failure will be recruited. 10 of 20 subjects will be treated with dapagliflozin 10mg everyday for 12 weeks. The primary outcome is the number of patients with hypoglycemia or urinary infection. The secondary outcomes is the changes of NT-.
This study will assess the functionality and tolerability of an automated continual water removal system in up to 8 patients with HF and diuretic resistance. intervention: Implanted absorption chamber, connected to an external pump. Follow up: 3 months post activation.
To determine whether an integrated AI decision support can save time and improve accuracy of assessment of echocardiograms, the investigators are conducting a blinded, randomized controlled study of AI guided measurements of left ventricular ejection fraction compared to sonographer measurements in preliminary readings of echocardiograms.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and effect on cardiac function of intravenous APD418 in adult participants with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors generally and empagliflozin specifically have shown cardiovascular benefits in patients with heart failure (HF), but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Empagliflozin use resulted in lower pulmonary artery diastolic pressures in patients with HF, suggesting a beneficial diuretic effect. Other potential mechanisms include increased blood volume, decreased blood pressure, and changes in sympathetic and neuro-hormonal activation. This study is a single-arm, open label, prospective interventional study of 8 subjects with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Before and after 12 weeks of daily empagliflozin, participants with undergo comprehensive invasive exercise testing with a right heart catheter. Our goal is to evaluate the effects of empagliflozin on fitness, assessed by peak VO2, and peak left ventricular filling pressure, assessed by pulmonary capillary pressure at peak exercise.
This study will test whether pharmacologic agents that may improve mitochondrial function and energy fuel metabolism [Empagliflozin (Empa)], with and without additional supplements that increase perfusion and fatty acid oxidation [Potassium Nitrate (KNO3)], improve submaximal exercise endurance and skeletal muscle oxidative phosphorylation capacity (SkM OxPhos) in participants with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF).
