Filter by:SAVE PACe is a large, prospective, single-blinded, randomized clinical trial with the main objective to study the effect of unnecessary right ventricular apical pacing on the clinical outcome of time to development of persistent AF.
Heart failure is a progressive disease that decreases the pumping action of the heart. This may cause a backup of fluid in the heart and may result in heart beat changes. When there are changes in the heart beat sometimes an implantable heart device is used to control the rate and rhythm of the heart beat. The purpose of the REVERSE clinical trial is to determine whether pacing in both the left and right ventricles using Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) can help slow the progression of heart failure in people who have mild or previous symptoms and poor heart pumping function. This kind of therapy has previously been shown to reduce symptoms and improve exercise capacity in people with more advanced forms of heart failure.
The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous infusion of carperitide using pressure measurements inside the heart and great vessels and measuring carperitide concentration in the blood.
The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate if patients with a standard indication for permanent ventricular pacing, left ventricular ejection fraction without limit, or any QRS duration will profit from the prevention of ventricular desynchronisation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether adding AF Suppression™ to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves the prognosis of heart failure patients benefiting from cardiac resynchronization therapy.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that biventricular pacing (BiV) and left univentricular (left ventricular [LV] only) pacing are safe and effective for cardiac resynchronization therapy in heart failure patients implanted with a cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D) device. The hypothesis to be tested by this clinical investigation is that patients indicated for an ICD with cardiac resynchronization therapy respond as well to LV only pacing as to BiV pacing.
The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the progression of ventricular dysfunction in patients with ventricular dysfunction within the permanent pacing population.
The aim of this study is to test whether ivabradine is able to reduce cardiovascular events when given to patients with coronary artery disease and impaired heart function.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the Thoratec HeartMate II Left Ventricular Assist System (LVAS) as Destination Therapy in end-stage heart failure patients who do not qualify for cardiac transplantation. The Destination Therapy indication for use was approved by FDA on January 20, 2010 (ref. PMA P060040/S005).
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the Thoratec HeartMate II Left Ventricular Assist System (LVAS) as a bridge to cardiac transplantation in end-stage heart failure patients who are listed for cardiac transplant but are at imminent risk of dying. The HeartMate II LVAS was approved by the US FDA on April 21, 2008, as a bridge to cardiac transplantation (reference PMA P060040). It was approved for commercial distribution in Canada on May 20, 2009 (reference Medical Device Licence #79765). Patients enrolled into the clinical trial will continue to be followed until all have reached a clinical outcome.
