Filter by:This is a Phase 2 adaptive, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized, multi-center trial study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single dose of AB-1002, administered via antegrade intracoronary artery infusion, in males and females age >18 years with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy and NYHA Class III symptoms of HF. Subjects will be randomized into one of three treatment groups in a 1:1:1
The goal of this clinical trial is to improve communication among clinicians, patients with memory problems, and their family members. We are testing a way to help clinicians have better conversations to address patients' goals for their healthcare. To do this, we created a simple, short guide called the "Jumpstart Guide." The goal of this research study is to show that using this kind of guide is possible and can be helpful for patients and their families. Patients' clinicians may receive a Jumpstart Guide before the patient's clinic visit. Researchers will compare patients whose clinician received a Jumpstart Guide to patients whose clinician did not receive a guide to see if more patients in the Jumpstart Guide group had conversations about the patient's goals for their healthcare. Patients and their family members will also be asked to complete surveys after the visit with their clinician.
This randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate patients with decompensated heart failure undergoing an early mobilization protocol with the use of immersive virtual reality glasses compared with patients undergoing the same protocol but without immersive virtual reality. The primary outcome will be the sensation of difficulty breathing, and the secondary outcome will be whether this technology provided a positive experience for patients in the intervention group that was superior to that of patients in the control group.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a prospective trial to investigate the incidence of heart failure in cirrhosis patients undergoing transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt ,and to analyze the the predictors and modififications of cardiac function.
Heart failure is a major cause of death and hospitalization in Canada. Many of the symptoms experienced by patients with heart failure relate to having fluid accumulate in the lungs causing difficulty breathing, swelling in the legs, and an increase in weight. Thus, one of the cornerstones of managing heart failure includes the use of medications known as diuretics that target the kidneys to reduce fluid accumulation via urination. Deciding on the correct dose of this medication can be quite nuanced as under-dosing can lead to accumulation of fluid, and over-dosing can dehydrate patients and potentially result in lightheadedness/fainting and damage to the kidneys. Currently, options for prescribing diuretics for heart failure include 1) giving patients a regular, fixed dose or 2) having patients monitor their daily weight as a surrogate of their fluid status and then take a dose of diuretic based on a pre-prepared scale. The rationale behind the flexible weight-based diuretic scale is that it can potentially detect early fluid accumulation and thus possibly prevent hospitalization or ED visits, and it also avoids over-dosing and potentially dehydrating patients. Currently, it is not clear whether the flexible diuretic regimen is better than the fixed-dose regimen in preventing ED visits, hospitalizations, kidney damage, or death and as such, this pilot study will directly compare the two commonly used regimens in the management of chronic heart failure patients.
Data regarding the safety and efficacy of ivabradine use in severely decompensated HFrEF requiring inotropic support is limited to case series.1 This study aimed to evaluate ivabradine safety and tolerability in admitted cardiogenic shock patients who started on dobutamine infusion for inotropic support.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of LY3540378 in adults with worsening heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
Introduction： Muscle wasting is a serious complication that affects a large proportion of patients with heart failure (HF). Muscle wasting is a strong predictor of frailty and reduced survival in HF patients. Currently, standard treatments for slowing muscle loss in patients with HF are not available. The main intervention remains various types of physical activity programs. Telemonitoring is a promising strategy for improving heart failure outcomes by making it possible to monitor patients remotely. There are numerous examples of home-based exercise programs administered through telehealth services that have been beneficial for maintaining physical activity levels. These results highlight the potential utility of telehealth services for combatting sedentarism and muscle wasting among epidemic and post-epidemic phases. Objective： The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a multi-component physical activity program based on home telemonitoring on patients with heart failure and muscle wasting. Methods： This study used an quasi-experimental study, two-group repeated measurement design. The experimental group received the Home-based exercise with telemonitoring and control group according to regular nursing care. Data were collected at baseline (T0), and post-tests will be conducted right after the intervention period (T1). Additionally, detraining effects will be measured 12 weeks after program cessation (T2) . Data were collected including demographic questionnaire, sarcopenia, cachexia assessment, clinical blood parameters from patient record, physical activity, loneliness, and quality of life. Scientific or Clinical Implication of the Expected Results： The study results can be used to design designated interventions and provide information for policymaking.
The goal of this cohort study is to observe the effectiveness of Yiqi Fumai Lyophilized Injection (YQFM) in patients with acute heart failure (AHF). It mainly aims to assess the effectiveness of YQFM on the 90-day mortality or readmission rate in patients with AHF and compare the results with AUGUST-AHF RCT study. There will be no intervention, but information will be collected during the hospital stay and during the follow-up period of 180 days . Researchers will compare exposed group(patients who received YQFM) and non-exposed group(patients who didn't received YQFM) to see if there is difference on the 90-day mortality or readmission rate.
PROTECT-SYNC study is a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial. A total of 7 medical centers across Republic of Korea will enroll 450 patients during 2 years of enrollment period, and followed for 2 years of follow-up period. The purpose of this study to compare the clinical outcomes of Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing (LBBAP) compared to Right Ventricular Pacing (RVP) in bradyarrhythmia patients who require high burden of ventricular pacing (>40%).
