Filter by:This cross-sectional blinded study was planned to be conducted in Aydın Gynecology and Pediatrics Hospital between June 2023 and September 2023. The study was designed for adult pregnant female cases between the ages of 20 and 35. Patients with Class II American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status, scheduled for elective cesarean section under subarachnoid block and who gave informed consent were planned to be included in the study. Patients with emergencies and uncontrolled systemic comorbidities (e.g., cardiovascular, respiratory or renal) and patients with expected massive intraoperative loss (i.e., placenta accreta or placenta previa) are planned to be excluded from the study. Also, cases receiving intravenous fluid preload will be excluded.
The purpose of this research is to test a software tool called the "Chang Gung" Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction screening software, which uses a 12-lead electrocardiogram to determine if a patient has left ventricular systolic dysfunction. The goal is to determine if the software can accurately identify patients with this condition, which would help doctors diagnose and treat it more effectively. The trial will involve using the software on patients and comparing its results to those obtained through echocardiograms, which are currently the gold standard for diagnosing left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Only patients who meet specific eligibility criteria will be able to participate in the trial, and the software will be administered by trained healthcare professionals. The study will help determine if the software is a useful tool for diagnosing left ventricular systolic dysfunction, which could lead to earlier diagnosis and better outcomes for patients. The research team will collect and analyze data on the accuracy of the software and its usability in clinical practice. Overall, this study will provide important information for doctors and patients about a new tool for diagnosing left ventricular systolic dysfunction.
The aim of the study is to investigate sex-specific differences in LV and RV function (systolic and diastolic) with regarding the development and progression of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction based on a retrospective data analysis. Lifestyle modification factors will be assessed for multivariate analyses in order to detect influencing factors. Progression will be analysed in a retrospective time series analysis.
This study aims to compare the efficacy of vericiguat versus placebo on change in n-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) from baseline to Week 16. The primary hypothesis is Vericiguat is superior to placebo in reducing NT-proBNP at Week 16.
Background Fasting for 6 hours is required for the patients regarding the preparation of the operation and preparation for anesthesia. It is already known that this fasting period affects volume. Although Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Movement (TAPSE) is an echocardiographic parameter showing Right Ventricular (RV) systolic function, its relationship with volume is discussed in recent years. In the present study, the relationship between TAPSE and volume, and whether there is a change in preoperative fasting and right ventricular functions will be evaluated. Methods The study was started between 21.11.2022 and 21.05.2023 in Aydın Maternity and Child Hospital after approval was received from the Non-Invasive Clinical Research Ethics Committee. A total of 21 patients were planned to be included in this prospective observational study. Transthoracic echocardiography will be performed in patients aged 18-65 years who will undergo elective procedures under anesthesia, and in full patients the day before surgery. Those who are pregnant, patients with known or prospective severe valvular disease, severe pulmonary hypertension, acute myocardial infarction, dilated and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and non-sinus rhythm will be excluded from the study. Transthoracic echocardiography will be performed on the patients, and the relationship between TAPSE and volume and whether there is a change in preoperative fasting and right ventricular functions will be evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether 480 mg/day magnesium glycinate supplementation for 12 weeks lowers blood pressure.
The goal of this prospective cohort study is to investigate cardiac comorbidity in a random sample of approximately 1200 patients from a population of outpatients with rheumatoid arthritis and axial spondyloarthritis referred to collectively as inflammatory arthritis (IA). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Using conventional echocardiography, the investigators aim to determine the prevalence of overt and asymptomatic cardiac dysfunction in a large random sample of outpatients with IA. Cardiac dysfunction will be evaluated by echocardiography and cardiac biomarkers (NT-pro-BNP, hs-TNT and hs-CRP). - In patients without known heart disease: Using 2, 5 and 10 year follow-up, the investigators aim to examine if advanced echocardiography can be used to detect early signs of heart disease by investigating the clinical significance of adding deformation measures - alone and in combination with selected biomarkers - to conventional risk factors in the cardiac risk assessment of patients with IA Participants will undergo an echocardiographic examination in combination with a general health assessment including obtainment of cardiac biomarkers and a electrocardiogram. Using advanced echocardiography - Tissue Doppler Imaging, 2- dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography, 3D-echocardiography and 3-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography - the investigators also aim to compare myocardial deformation parameters of patients with IA to a gender and age matched control group without IA from the Copenhagen City Heart Study.
The goal of this pilot study is to evaluate the prospective performance of an image-based, smartphone-adaptable artificial intelligence electrocardiogram (AI-ECG) strategy to predict and detect left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) in a real-world setting.
This observational, pharmacological, prospective study aims to assess the improvement of ventricular systolic function mediated by norepinephrine (NE) administration in preload non-responders septic shock patients. Left ventricular outflow tract velocity time integral (LVOT-VTI) is an echocardiographic index of ventricular systolic function and it will be measured at different NE dosages.
This study aims to evaluate the effect of intensive treatment (a target clinic based systolic blood pressure(BP) <120mmHg) on 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and home blood pressure, as well as the effect on White-coat uncontrolled hypertension and masked uncontrolled hypertension, compared with standard treatment (a target clinic based systolic BP <140mmHg).
