Filter by:Among patients early following ST-segment (ST) elevation myocardial infarction, transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation is associated with a reduce of the burden of premature ventricular contractions in the first 40 days post-myocardial infarction (MI). The above hypothesis will be tested with a randomized, prospective, parallel, single-blind clinical trial. The expected study duration is approximately 12 months from the time the first subject is enrolled (planned for June 2023) to the time of study's termination date (December 2024). Patient enrollment is planned to take place at two major centers in Greece. The researchers will obtain approval by the institutional review board (IRB).
The study will systematically evaluate how an emergency manual-a collection of checklists and fact sheets-affects the performance of resuscitation teams during the management of priority one patients in an emergency department.
This study is being to see if participating in breathing exercise training and practicing this training will help with Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS). The information may help doctors to learn more about how the different parts of people's brains communicate.
The VISABL-VT is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center, interventional investigation of the safety and efficacy of radiofrequency (RF) ablation of ventricular tachycardia associated with ischemic cardiomyopathy performed with the Vision-MR Ablation Catheter 2.0 in the iCMR environment.
People who suffer from incessant cardiac arrhythmias receive a small electrical device implanted into their chest that automatically senses when the heart beats arrhythmically and applies electrical pulse to re-establish normal activity. However, if problems persist, people can have an operation called catheter ablation therapy, which involves 'burning' small areas of the heart tissue in order to permanently disrupt the problematic electrical pathways driving these arrhythmias. However, procedure times and complication rates are high, whist success rates are punitively low (~50% success), largely due to the significant challenge clinicians face in identifying the ideal 'target' to ablate within the patient's heart. In this project, the investigators aim to develop, and clinically validate, an in silico tool that reconstructs a personalised computational model of a patient's heart using advanced MRI data, upon which a virtual 'mapping' procedure is then performed in order to identify (in the model) the optimal ablation target. This pre-procedural planning tool utilises stored information about the patient's specific arrhythmia from their implanted device, ensuring optimal targets are selected. The approach aims to reduce procedure times whilst increasing their safety, and ensure significantly increased long-term effectiveness of these invasive ablation procedures, increasing survival rates and quality-of-life. This study is concerned with the clinical arm of the study, specifically, in the collection of data from patients in order to (retrospectively) validate the computational model. The model itself will not be applied or used to treat these patients.
A sigle-center, randomized controlled trial will be do to investigate the effects of esomol on heart rate, clinical parameters, mortality, and safety in septic shock patients with tachycardia at different stages, compared with patients who received conventional therapy.
Many patients with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) experience debilitating fatigue and this significantly impacts their daily lives. Unfortunately, there are no treatments to help POTS patients with their fatigue. One medication, called low dose naltrexone (LDN), has been tested as a treatment for fatigue in other medical conditions. In this other research, LDN helped patients feel less fatigue. Other research studies have shown that LDN can help reduce markers of inflammation called cytokines. Reducing these cytokines could help reduce symptoms as well. There have been no research studies testing LDN in POTS to date. We are planning to do a research study to test LDN as a treatment to see if it helps POTS patients feel less fatigue.
The Thermedical Ablation System and Durablate catheter is indicated for use in patients with recurrent, sustained, monomorphic ventricular tachycardia (SMVT) refractory to drug therapy and conventional (approved) catheter ablation. Subjects with recurrent, SMVT refractory to drug therapy and conventional catheter ablation who are not eligible for, or will not likely benefit from repeat endocardial ablation using an approved catheter.
In this study, we aimed to evaluate atrial and ventricular function in supraventricular tachyarrhythmia patients before and 3 months after RFA using 2DSTE.
To assess potential link between unrecognized myocardial inflammation (myocarditis) and premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) associated with and without reduced Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) through comprehensive diagnostic work up.
