Filter by:The main objective of the study is to determine if a diuretic adaptation protocol in the decompensation of chronic heart failure is more effective but also safer than the current non-protocolized practice.
Several Drugs used in routine care in oncology induce rare but often severe or fatal cardiovascular or metabolic side effects. This study will investigate, evaluate, report and treat the cardiovascular side effects of anticancer drugs, through a specific cardiovascular routine checkup and follow-up taking place in several Cardio-oncology programs throughout France. The different including centers will be: Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris (APHP.6: Pitié-Salpétrière, Saint Antoine and Tenon's hospitals, Paris, France).
The purpose of this study is to examine small vessel disease (a condition in which the small arteries in the heart become narrowed). The investigators want to know how the small vessel disease contributes to pre-HFpEF (a condition with inadequate heart muscle function in the setting of preserved muscle pumping) and to better identify potential treatment for prevention of HFpEF. The main procedures of this study include up to 2 clinic visits (initial visit and a second clinical visit only if participants are unable to complete all research procedures at the initial visit); a 6-week phone interview visit, 4 quarterly follow-up phone interview visits in year 1; year 1 follow up cardiac MRI based on availability and ongoing annual follow-up phone interview visits to track progress. If participants choose to take part in this study, participants direct participation will end after 1 year, participants will then have the option of participating in ongoing annual check-in calls. Participants will be asked to undergo a physical exam and provide a completed medical history; complete a Cardiovascular (or Cardiac) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CMRI) with contrast agent; complete questionnaires to describe heart symptoms and overall quality of life status; undergo blood draws to provide blood samples for research testing, and allow the study team to have access to medical records.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-response trial in patients with chronic stable Heart Failure (HF) and reduced Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of three INL1 doses compared with placebo. Patients will be treated for approximately 12 weeks with one of three INL1 doses: 50 mg, 150 mg, 300 mg, or, placebo capsules, taken twice daily (BID).
1. Evaluate efficacy and safety of continuous infusion of IV Frusemide compared to IV shots in acute decompensated heart failure ADHF 2. Evaluate superiority of time-adjusted metolazone to morning frusemide IV shots compared to irrespective administration (at random times) to overcome diuretic resistance
The aims of this proposal are to investigate whether external enhanced counterpulsation (EECP) can facilitate heart failure (HF) patient weaning from intravenous infusion of positive inotropic agent, and thus decrease the length of hospital stay. The major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) rate, including death and hospitalization for heart failure, will be monitored for 6 months if patients can be released from hospital. Exercise tolerance (6-minute walking distance) and plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) level will be checked at the end of 6th month.
Patient Power is a patient research network and database (registry) to collect prospective information about demographics, self-reported diagnoses and medications, and willingness to participate in research from participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), spondyloarthritis (SpA), other musculoskeletal conditions, chronic neurological conditions like migraine, chronic pulmonary conditions like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), asthma, autoimmune dermatological conditions such as psoriasis, and other chronic inflammatory or immune-mediated conditions. In addition, since patients with chronic conditions often have other co-morbidities like cardiovascular health and obesity-related metabolic disorders, these conditions will also be included. Participants will provide information from their smartphones or personal computers. The information will be used by researchers and clinicians to help patients and their providers make better, more informed decisions about treatment of chronic conditions.
It has been shown retrospectively that participation and even the willingness improves the survival of patients after myocardial infarction or heart failure. We aimed to prospectively analyse the role of participation in cardiology trials on the survival of patients in a high volumen tertiary center.
Magnesium supplementation could improve cardiac performance. Patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) are magnesium deficient and we hypothesized that 1 year supplementation of oral magnesium comparted to placebo will improve exercise duration time and quality of life.
Safety and performance evaluation of the preCARDIA System for patients with ADHF.
