Filter by:The study is aimed to evaluate the improvement of the left ventricular volumes and of the left ventricular ejection fraction in a population of ICD patients with heart failure and left ventricle systolic dysfunction undergoing therapy with Sacubitril/Valsartan (according to current Guidelines), during a 6-month follow-up.
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether early administration of Dexrazoxane prevents Doxorubicin induced cardiotoxicity.
Patients with advanced LVH and HFpEF will be randomly assigned in open-label fashion to receive LCZ696 titrated to 200 mg twice daily or valsartan titrated to 160 mg twice daily, and will be treated for 24 weeks.
In this study, the investigators are testing the accuracy of a wrist-worn measurement device by comparing its blood pressure measurement to arterial line (A-line) blood pressure monitors. The device is similar in style and fit to popular activity bands, but it is unique in that it measures blood pressure.
Pulmonary Artery Compliance measurements will be obtained with the Respirix device in patients with congestive heart failure decompensation. Echocardiogram, weight measurements, and BNP will also be gathered as independent measures of decompensation in the clinic. Pulmonary Artery Compliance measurements will be made daily during the hospital stay. Patients can continue using the device at home for the next 3 weeks. Each patient will serve as their own control and relative changes from their baseline will be recorded for each parameter.

This is a controlled, randomized, open-label, multicentric study evaluating the value of coordinated medico-pharmaceutical management compared to standard management in patients with heart failure. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of these optimized activities on the re-hospitalization of the patient with cardiac insufficiency for a disease-related event within three months of the initial hospitalization.
This is a prospective, single arm, early feasibility study designed to evaluate the safety and device performance of The RenalGuard System in the management of patients admitted with signs and symptoms of congestive heart failure who require diuresis for the treatment of volume overload.
The new approach propose in this protocol is based on ultrafast ultrasound and remote palpation of tissue by ultrasonic radiation pressure. Ultrafast ultrasound of biological tissues is based on an innovative ultrasound imaging approach that can image very fast soft tissue events at a rate of several thousands of frames per second and provide quantitative mapping of the elasticity of the tissues. This current project aims is to focus on myocardial rigidity in diastole to better assess the function of the heart failure.
The main aim of this study is to investigate the effect of melatonin on clinical outcome, quality of life, and cardiovascular function of the patients with heart failure, as well as its effect on their skeletal muscle mass and function.
