Filter by:This is a prospective cohort to describe clinical characteristics, predictors of poor outcomes both during hospitalization and at home, functional status, and quality of life among patients aged 13 years or more, consecutively admitted with acute decompensated heart failure at Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital.
Study will compare measurements made with Necklace device for stroke volume/cardiac output with values from a FDA-approved reference device. The gold standard that will be used is Cardiac MRI. Subjects will be measured with both the Necklace, reference device, and the Cardiac MRI. Values calculated by the Cardiac MRI analysis will be compared with the reference device and the Necklace.
Participants with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction will undergo 12 weeks of cardiac rehabilitation for exercise training (ET) and be randomized to either sodium nitrite or placebo through the training period. Study drug is administered 3 times daily with one of these doses being 30 minutes prior to onset of ET sessions throughout the12 week trial. The objective is to determine if the sodium nitrite improves the clinical responses and tolerability of ET.
Assess whether high doses of ?-3 fatty acids added to standard treatment of patients with acute hearta failure, hypoalbuminemia and high inflammatory activity, promotes an increase in serum albumin
Using a 2-arm, randomized controlled trial (RCT) among CHF patients at the University of Pennsylvania Health System (UPHS), to test the effectiveness of applying automated hovering to improve outcomes among CHF patients at high risk of readmission.
It is an observational study in patients with heart failure investigating the incidence of arrhythmias using a wearable device which can monitor heart rhythm for up to 14 days. In addition to gathering routine clinical information, research assessments include a symptoms questionnaire and a corridor walk test. Patients will be followed for clinical events (interventions for arrhythmias, hospitalisation, death) for 1 year.
The WEARIT-III registry enrolls subjects with ischemic cardiomyopathy and heart failure (including NYHA II, III, IV and an ejection fraction ≤ 35%) who wear a medically prescribed ZOLL LifeVest Wearable Defibrillator. The primary objective of the WEARIT-III Registry is to prospectively document the clinical course of high-risk cardiac patients with heart failure and ischemic cardiomyopathy prescribed with Wearable Cardioverter Defibrillator (WCD), such as left ventricular function recovery, arrhythmia, Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD), Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT), Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD), heart transplantation, and to assess the benefit of WCD in heart failure patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy.
The goal of this study is to compare the effectiveness of pacing from a physiologic His bundle (HB) lead position versus with the standard coronary sinus (CS) lead position in subjects with heart failure undergoing cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). While placement of left ventricular leads via the coronary sinus has anatomic limitations, we hypothesis that the achievement of QRS narrowing with His bundle capture will be superior for improving systolic function by echocardiographic indices (ejection fraction and strain) and quality of life and decreased rehospitalization and mortality.
Despite advancements in implant technology and various techniques of optimization, there is still around 30% non-responder rate to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). This study will assess the potential benefit of a body surface mapping technology to optimize CRT devices in the chronic sub-optimal responder setting.
The purpose of this study was to determine the safety and tolerability of CLR325 intravenous (i.v.) infusion in patients with stable heart failure to determine if further clinical development of the drug in this indication was warranted.
