Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine if testing preload responsiveness, the normal physiologic state that means that changes in preload determine changes in cardiac output, allows an earlier and physiologically safer weaning from mechanical ventilation in critically ill patients with fluid overload, when compared to a strategy of fluid removal aimed at obtaining a predetermined negative fluid balance.
The aim of the study is to test and evaluate the use of video consultations and an algorithm for weight gain and loss in the Future Patient Telerehabilitation program for HF patients in an RCT.
Medtronic is sponsoring the HFRS PAS to evaluate the HFRS feature (TriageHF) when used in routine clinical practice following commercial release. The HFRS PAS is conducted within Medtronic's Product Surveillance Registry (PSR) platform.
Pivotal trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards EVOQUE tricuspid valve replacement system
This is a randomized trial of protocolized diuretic therapy guided by urinary sodium compared to structured usual care in ED patients with AHF. Participants will be recruited following an initial standard evaluation in the ED and randomized in a 1:1 fashion to structured usual care or protocolized diuretic therapy guided by urinary sodium.
The objective of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of the Carmat Total Artificial Heart for the treatment of refractory advanced heart failure in transplant eligible patients.
A 35-week, single-center, prospective, double-blind, controlled, randomized, 2x2 crossover, interventional Phase II study, investigating the effect of treatment with dapagliflozin 10mg od on Left Ventricular distensibility in patients with early HFpEF.
A collaboration gap across sectors is a common problem in Denmark and Brazil. Brazilian Heart Insufficiency with Telemedicine (BRAHIT) will run in parallel with the ongoing Danish Reaching the Frail Elderly project (REAFEL - NCT04162548), supported by the Ministry of Higher Education and Health (Innovationsfonden - Grand Solutions), until 2021. REAFEL seeks a stronger collaboration between primary care and hospital cardiologists to manage frail elderly patients, using teleconsultation and data from mobile devices in Denmark. Health resources are scarce in Brazil and a pressing need for the Municipal Secretary of Health of Rio de Janeiro is to reduce wait times to access some areas, as cardiology. When patients are stable after undergoing highly complex procedures in a tertiary hospital, are discharged to outpatient treatment at primary care but, a heterogenous expansion of the primary care system in the Rio de Janeiro municipality has created a great resistance from the population, and among cardiologists, to accept continuing cardiology treatment at the primary care system. Enhancing a collaboration between primary care and cardiologists, that is tangible for the patients, can relieve this pressure. The cross-sectorial collaboration in BRAHIT is based on the involvement of Instituto Nacional de Cardiologia (INC), a tertiary cardiology hospital, with primary investigator Aurora Issa (INC) and primary-and homecare in Rio de Janeiro, with primary investigator Leonardo Graever, Primary Care Special Advisor in the Municipality of Rio de Janeiro. The project proposal originates from Denmark and sponsors the project through a Danida grant (Window 2 from the Danish Foreign Ministry - Danida Fellowship Center 18-M03-KU) to the cardiologist Helena Domínguez, as associate professor in the Dept. of Biomedicine, UCPH, and consultant in Bispebjerg-Frederiksberg Hospital. Being complex public health intervention studies, mixed methods are necessary to evaluate the value gained in the project and to provide research-based policy briefs. The methods include qualitative analyses and a cluster-randomization trial, the latter used for power calculation. Such calculation is based on adequate heart failure medications aggregated in a score constructed for this purpose. Secondary end-point is rate of number of readmissions for any cause, after discharge with heart failure diagnosis.
This study aims to demonstrate the efficacy of sequential nephron blockade by adding hydrochlorothiazide or spironolactone on intravenous furosemide compared to intravenous furosemide alone in the treatments of volume overload in patients with acute heart failure who have diuretic resistance from furosemide stress test.
This study is aim to study the changes of serum creatinine levels at 72 hours after admission in patients with acute heart failure who has diuretic resistance compared to those who do not have diuretic resistance from furosemide stress test
