Filter by:The purpose of this study is to understand the impact of beta-blockers on physical function in older adults with heart failure. We will achieve this objective by conducting N-of-1 trials. N-of-1 trials are personalized experiments that test different treatment options in an individual patient.
This is a Phase 2a proof-of-concept study to assess safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of mavacamten treatment on biomarker levels in participants with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and elevation of NT-proBNP with or without elevation of cTnT. Data from this study will inform future study designs of mavacamten in patients with HFpEF.
In this study, we will test the feasibility of N-of-1 trials for deprescribing beta-blockers in patients with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction. To achieve this objective we will conduct 16 4-period N-of-1 trials (on vs. off) and subsequently interview participants to better understand feasibility and pragmatism. The N-of-1 trials will be iteratively refined in real-time based on this feedback.
The subject of the study is the factors of unfavorable prognosis in heart failure. We would like to identify independent variables associated with a bad prognosis of patients hospitalized for heart failure with a reduced vs. a mid range and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction based on specific predictive models. It is planned to create multifactorial models that can be used to predict prognosis for individual patients.
To evaluate the effects of cycle ergometer training on heart rate recovery in Newyork Heart Association (NYHA) class I and II heart patients. To evaluate the effects of cycle ergometer training on mind fullness in NYHA class I and II heart patients. Previous studies were designed to target only cardiac functions and no psychological aspect was studied so this study cover this aspect as well so from the outcomes of this study we can determine both psychological satisfaction and cardiac function as well.
Metabolic alkalosis (MA) is the most common acid-base disorder and when it's severe it can have effects on cellular function and contribute to an increase in mortality. MA is a common complication of heart failure (HF) especially when patients are treated with diuretics, but few studies have analyzed the prevalence of acid-base disorders in patients with HF. All these studies have shown that MA is more common in patients with HF in more advanced stages and that the use of diuretics increases the prevalence of MA. The study hypothesis, based on clinical experience and the few data that exist in the scientific literature, is that MA is a frequent analytical disorder in patients admitted for decompensated HF and that its presence entails a worse short-term vital prognosis. The ALCALOTIC study is an observational cohort and prospective study. The main objectives of the study are the following: 1. To determine the prevalence of MA in patients admitted for decompensated HF 2. To analyze if there are differences in patients admitted for HF according to the presence of MA on admission 3. To determine if the presence of MA has an influence on the short-term prognosis in patients admitted for decompensated HF
This is a multi-site, non-randomized, data collection study. The purpose of this study is to investigate the cardiac electrical and mechanical function during LBBAP with different AV intervals.
Invasive telemonitoring has shown promising results in reducing readmissions and health service utilization, and improving patient outcomes; however, such evidence is lacking for non-invasive telemonitoring. Our proposal is to deploy a wearable solution that predicts physiological perturbation comparable to invasive devices and to perform continuous remote patient monitoring; this will be connected to a structured, cascading, escalation pathway involving home health nurses, advanced practitioner providers, specialists, and surgeons, and has the potential to transform care management in the post-discharge period, where patients are the most vulnerable for readmission.
This research study is evaluating the efficacy and feasibility of a novel, dyadic intervention for heart failure couples versus an educational counseling intervention.
Investigators are building an empirical evidence base for real world data through large-scale replication of randomized controlled trials. The investigators' goal is to understand for what types of clinical questions real world data analyses can be conducted with confidence and how to implement such studies.
