Filter by:The idea behind the Future Patient research project is to develop a telerehabilitation program and tools for patients with heart failure. The hypothesis for this study is that participation in a telerehabilitation program for patients with heart failure will increase the patients' quality of life and multi-parametric (subjective and objective) individualized monitoring in a telerehabilitation program for patients with heart failure will increase detection of worsening of symptoms and avoid future hospitalization of the HF-patients.
The GUIDE-HF IDE clinical trial is intended to demonstrate the effectiveness of the CardioMEMS™ HF System in an expanded patient population including heart failure (HF) patients outside of the present indication, but at risk for future HF events or mortality.
This is a Phase I/II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single rising dose study in patients with systolic heart failure to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ITI-214.
Real-world evidence of the clinical course of patient symptoms following initiation of sacubitril/valsartan via PROs with a patient-centered study design will provide important evidence of potentially beneficial outcomes associated with the use of this therapy.
Assessment of cardiac energy metabolism in patients with impaired glucose tolerance
A prospective longitudinal and observational clinical study will be conducted with hospitalized heart failure patients.The main purpose is to know the level of physical activity of these patients after their discharge in relation to the orientation received during their hospitalization and identify the barriers perceived by these patients to participate in a cardiac rehabilitation program. The outcomes are available by telephone calls in 30 and 90 days after discharge.
Study subjects active on the waiting list for a heart transplant at the NYU Langone Transplant Institute who are hepatitis C (HCV) negative will receive a heart transplant from a donor who tests positive for HCV. The study will entail surveillance for the development of HCV viremia post-transplant. Patients who develop HCV viremia post-transplant will be treated with an FDA-approved, pan-genotypic direct acting antiviral drug, Mavyret. Patients who are treated with Mavyret will be monitored for clearance of viremia and for sustained virologic response.
To assess impact on left ventricular reverse remodeling defined as a change in left ventricular ejection fraction in heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction (and previous implantation of cardiac resynchronization therapy) undergoing treatment with ferric carboxymaltose vs. placebo
Heart failure (HF) is the leading cause of hospitalization in the US. Endothelial dysfunction, characterized by the decreased vasodilatory capacity of the vascular endothelium, is rampant in atherosclerotic diseases such as coronary artery disease and also in HF. Endothelial dysfunction also correlates with HF severity, progression, and mortality. It is postulated that endothelial dysfunction may in part be due to enhanced sympathetic drive, diminished parasympathetic drive, chronic inflammatory state thereby leading to reduced nitric oxide synthase activity in the vascular endothelium. Low-level vagus nerve stimulation (LLVNS) is an invasive way to modulate autonomic tone. Recent experimental and clinical data suggest that low-level transcutaneous vagal stimulation (TVS) (by stimulating the auricular branch of the vagus nerve located at the tragus of the external ear) may produce the same desired neuromodulator effect compared to LLVNS. The objective of this study is to determine the impact of TVS on endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness. The study population will include patients with chronic HFrEF. After performing baseline flow-mediated dilation (FMD), laser speckle contrast imaging(LSCI) and pulse wave analysis (PWA) testing, patients will be randomized to TVS or sham stimulation with a crossover design at different time points. The patient randomized to TVS arm will undergo stimulation for 1 hour followed by immediate measurement of FMD,LSCI and PWA. There will be a washout period of at least 24 hours with patient crossing over to the other arms thus serving as their self-control.
The investigators goal is to assess real-world effectiveness of patient decision aids (PtDA) for high-risk decisions using the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) as a model.
