Filter by:Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) affects up to 3% of the general population and a small subset of patients is at risk for ventricular arrhythmias. This subgroup is referred to as AMVP (arrhythmic MVP) and was recently defined using the following criteria: (1) Presence of MVP), (2) Ventricular arrhythmia that is either frequent (≥5% total premature ventricular contraction (PVC) burden on Holter) or complex (non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (nsVT), ventricular tachycardia (VT), or ventricular fibrillation (VF)), and (3) The absence of any other well-defined arrhythmic substrate. Currently, diagnosis is often based on repeated 24-hour Holter monitoring. However, the ventricular arrhythmia burden varies from day-to-day and long-term rhythm monitoring has shown in other pathologies to increase the diagnostic yield with up to 200% (from 22.5% on 24h to 75.3% on 14 days). This pilot study aims to study the diagnostic yield of long-term rhythm monitoring in patients with MVP as well as the day-to-day variability of ventricular arrhythmias to facilitate power calculation for a future large-scale prospective registry.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the clinical characteristics of patients undergoing permanent cardiac pacing and to compare procedural efficacy and safety of different implantation approaches in the clinical practice of the participating centres. The contribution of non-fluoroscopic anatomical and electrophysiological reconstruction systems to device implantation procedures will also be evaluated. Participants [patients over 18 years old with an indication to receive a definitive pacemaker/intracardiac defibrillator implant] will receive a permanent cardiac pacing implant as requested according to European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines; the investigators will evaluate procedural efficacy and safety of different implantation approaches.
Study objectives: - To assess the impact of mitral valve surgery for mitral regurgitation on ventricular arrhythmic burden and surrogate markers of fibrosis in patients with arrhytmogenic mitral valve prolapse (MVP) from baseline to 6 months after surgery - To characterize the molecular landscape of arrhytmogenic MVP Study design: -Prospective explorative observational study Study population: -90 patients with arrhytmogenic MVP and without arrhytmogenic MVP (controls) eligible for mitral valve surgery for mitral regurgitation will be enrolled. All patients will be evaluated with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging and continuous seven day arrhythmic monitoring before and at 6 months after mitral valve surgery
Two-parallel groups randomized, single-blinded, multi-center phase III controlled trial in patients with chronic inflammatory cardiomyopathy to assess the efficacy of colchicine and associated prospective registry to assess the prognostic value of positive genetic testing in this population.
Pilot randomised trial to assess recruitment for a larger trial to compare the efficacy and adverse effects of the subcutaneous and transvenous ICD in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and indication for ICD therapy, with no requirement for pacing
The objective of this study is to prospectively validate in real life cohorts from various departments of the APHP our artificial intelligence (deep-learning) models allowing for : 1. automatic measurement of various ECG quantitative features, 2. identification and typing of LQT and risk of TdP.
Treatment of ventricular arrhythmias (VA) originating at the base of the heart may be challenging. Unipolar radio-frequency (RF) ablation is a standard approach to treat VA, however, it fails in 10 to 75% of patients, depending on the localization of VA. The main reason for unipolar ablation failure is the intramural location of the source of VA. In such patients, bipolar ablation may occur effective. However, there are no prospective studies or registries on consecutive patients wilt failed unipolar ablation, therefore, the proportion of candidates for bipolar ablation after failed unipolar approach is not known. Also, invasive electrophysiological parameters associated with successful unipolar and bipolar ablation have not been well established. It has been hypothesised that (1) bipolar ablation fails in 12-75% (mean 30%) of consecutive patients and these patients are candidates for bipolar ablation, (2) local ventricular signal precocity > 20 ms, unipolar signal without R wave and pace mapping 12/12 predict effective unipolar ablation but not bipolar ablation, (3) morphology of VA from surface ECG can identify patients with possible intramural localization, and (4) successful ablation results in improvement of quality of life (QoL). Aims: 1. To assess how many patients after failed unipolar ablation need redo procedure with bipolar ablation (primary end-point) 2. To assess which intraprocedural electrophysiological parameters predict success during standard unipolar ablation (secondary endpoint) 3. To assess short term efficacy of bipolar ablation (secondary endpoint) 4. To assess one-month efficacy of bipolar ablation (secondary endpoint) 5. To assess which intraprocedural electrophysiological parameters predict success during redo bipolar ablation (secondary endpoint) 6. To evaluate the performance of ECG-based algorithms in predicting the localization / origin of VA, especially of transmural origin (secondary endpoint) 7. To assess the effects of ablation on QoL (secondary endpoint)Methods. The study group consists of all consecutive patients who underwent unipolar ablation of VA originating from the base of the heart in the Grochowski Hospital and collaborating centres. All these patients are referred to Grochowski Hospital for further follow-up and treatment if needed, including bipolar ablation if initial unipolar approach failed. In all patients acute and one-month efficacy of unipolar and bipolar ablation is assessed.
Sotalol is an antiarrhythmic medication with proven effects for the suppression and prevention of supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias. Due to its potential proarrhythmic effect, its introduction should be cautious, and several guidelines recommend starting the medication in hospital settings. However, patients at low risk for a proarrhythmic effect start the medication in outpatient units, despite the lack of clinical studies in the literature that demonstrate the safety of introducing the medication outside the hospital environment. This research project aims to assess the safety introduction of sotalol in an outpatient unit basis. Our hypothesis is that outpatient introduction of sotalol is safe for low-risk patients and an electrocardiographic analysis after 2 hours of the first dose of medication is a predictor of electrocardiographic changes found after 72 hours. In this research, serial electrocardiographic analysis with measurements of the QT corrected intervals and its dispersion, as well as clinical and laboratory parameters will be performed in 110 patients.
The purpose of the program. Formulation of new treatments for heart and pulmonary failure through using organ-replacing technologies. Formulation of a clinical protocol and implementation of treatment methods into clinical practice heart and pulmonary failure using organ-replacing technologies. New methods were created for rehabilitating the function of affected organs after implantation of the LVAD, a total artificial heart, an extracorporeal life-sustaining system will be of great importance, both for Kazakhstan and for states with similar problems of donor organ deficiency, will also improve the effectiveness of surgical treatment and reduce the level of complications and mortality of patients on the extracorporeal life-sustaining system and septic patients.
