Filter by:The purpose of this study is to explore changes in patients' hemodynamic parameters during the Head-Up Tilt Test ("HUTT") and their timing with respect to onset of the Closed Loop Stimulation (CLS) pacing. This study aims to add knowledge to better understand the mechanisms underlying recurrent syncopal events and optimal pacing programming.
Until now, a barrier to the widespread evaluation of adenosine in clinical practice has been the difficulty of obtaining rapid reliable measures. A rapid method has recently been developed which consists of measuring adenosine concentration in whole blood instead of plasma by means of Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). In this study adenosine plasma levels were assessed in a larger unselected cohort of patients affected by non-cardiac syncope and compared the results with healthy controls.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the reliability of a new cuffless patch BP monitor in detecting episodes of hypotensive (pre)syncope during tilt testing.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the reliability of a new patient's self-administered wearable watch-type BP monitor in detecting episodes of hypotensive (pre)syncope. Secondary aim regards the estimation of feasibility of this tool.
SynABPM 2 proof-of-efficacy is a retrospective, multicentre, observational study performed in patients affected by hypotensive reflex syncope who had performed two ABPMs, one before and another after any therapeutical intervention aimed to increase arterial blood pressure
The purpose of the study is to determine physical and mental health issues of U.K. embryologists related to their occupational characteristics, and how workplace fatigue and burnout may affect their quality of life, cynicism, interactions with patients, attention to detail, and lead to human error, the cause of the most severe IVF incidents that often make headlines and result in costly litigation. It will also correlate how the current manual workflows contribute to these health issues, and what measures can be taken to improve both working conditions and embryologists' health, and, therefore, improve patient care.
The incidence and severity of hot weather and extreme heat events (heat waves) is increasing. As such, there is an urgent need to develop heat-alleviation strategies that can provide targeted protection for older adults who are at an elevated risk for heat-induced illnesses or death due to impaired body temperature and cardiovascular regulation. While air-conditioning provides the most effective protection from extreme heat, it is inaccessible for many individuals and cannot be used during power outages (e.g., heat-related rolling blackouts). Immersion of the lower limbs in cold water and/or the application of cold towels to the neck have been recommended as simple and sustainable alternatives to air-conditioning. However, empirical data to support the efficacy of these interventions for mitigating physiological strain and discomfort in older adults is lacking. To address this knowledge gap, this randomized crossover trial will evaluate the effect of lower limb immersion with and without application of cold towels to the neck on body core temperature, cardiovascular strain and autonomic function, dehydration, and thermal comfort in adults aged 65-85 years exposed to simulated heat wave conditions (38°C, 35% relative humidity) for 6 hours.
This study is a prospective, single-center randomized controlled clinical trial. patients with refractory vasovagal syncope were randomly divided into two groups according to the proportion of 1:1. Group A: simple left atrial ganglion plexus ablation (RAGP + LSGP + LLGP + LIGP + RIGP ablation); B group: left atrial ganglion plexus combined with right atrial ganglion plexus ablation (group A + consolidation ablation of RAGP at the junction of right atrial septum and superior vena cava). To clarify the role of RAGP in cardiac autonomic nervous system and the effect of ablation, to establish the standard stragtegy of cardiac nerve ablation.
Prospective multi centre cohort study examining the clinical presentation, diagnostic tests, and management of adult Emergency Department (ED) patients presenting with Transient Loss of Consciousness (TLOC) either undifferentiated or thought to be of syncopal origin.
This study aimed to analyze and investigate whether the use of the PMcardio clinical assistant leads to a more efficient patient management in primary care and more accessible specialised care compared to usual standards of care and to assess the reliability and safety of the PMcardio smartphone application in the primary care use environment. Additionally, to evaluate time savings and cost saving implications of increased availability of specialised care at the primary care level.
