After one-stage hybrid arrhythmia ablation surgery there are possible side effects like acute and chronic pain. There is a lot of research surrounding these pains but not specifically after one-stage hybrid arrhythmia ablation surgery. The investigators want to research factors that may be associated with the absence of chronic pain after hybrid ablation include ketamine, peroperative opioids, loco-regional blocks, neuraxial blocks, wound infiltration, postoperative patient-controlled analgesia. The presence of corticosteroids or NSAIDS, will also be evaluated. Furthermore, non-adaptable factors such as genetics complicate the onset of chronic post-operative pain. Taking existing knowledge in this field into account, incidence risk as well as acute pain duration and intensity and their effects on chronic pain will become the primary focus of this study. The investigators will contact all patients who had a one-stage hybrid arrhythmia ablation surgery at UZ Brussels. Participants will be sent a questionnaire with a consent form in and a survey asking about their pain 3 months postop and their current pain management therapy.
MindMics earbuds is a new technology designed enhance an individual's quality of life by continuously monitoring the heart rate, stress, and blood pressure allowing patients to make decisions regarding their health. MindMics has a working prototype of the ear buds which will perform all the conventional tasks of earbuds (listen to music, etc.), but, in addition, will measure heart rate, stress, blood pressure. The earbuds capture the sounds made by the various cardiac structures pulsing and moving blood. The sound is caused by the acceleration and deceleration of blood and the turbulence developed during rapid blood flow.
To investigate the effect of VTA ablation at the time of LVAD implant to see if it can reduce the incidence of VTA after surgery
In this patient engagement study, patients and partners will attend a presentation, group meeting and responding to the survey to help the research team gage the acceptability of using a biological therapy to prevent cardiac arrhythmia. Patient Partners will also help to clarify which outcomes are important to patients, to ensure the selected outcomes align with patient interests.
Physical activity is a key element in cardiac rehabilitation and prevention of cardiovascular mortality and hospitalizations. After cardiac rehabilitation programs end, physical activity levels and participation in continued cardiac rehabilitation declines. The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility a mobile health intervention with text messages and behavior change theory in patients with cardiovascular disease for a duration of 3 months after completion of a cardiac rehabilitation program. An intervention consisting of action planning, text messages, and coordinator support is tested in a feasibility trial design with 40 expected participants.
The aim of this study is to evaluate if internet- delivered cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), based on exposure principles and behavioral activation, improves QoL and symptom burden in patients with symptomatic atrial fibrillation (AF), controlling for expectancy of improvement and attention from a caregiver, using an active control group (stress management). The study will include 260 patients with symptomatic AF despite optimal medical treatment in accordance with current guidelines.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety profile of the combination of Levosimendan and beta blocker in cardiogenic shock with arrythmia.
The overall aim of this study is to improve our understanding of the effects of the build-up of amyloid deposits in the heart, in particular, our understanding of the risk of abnormal heart beats, or rhythms, associated with people with cardiac (heart) amyloidosis. Symptoms such as palpitations (fast, strong or irregular heart beat) and blackouts are common in people with cardiac amyloidosis, but there is not enough information on what causes this. At present, there is also not enough information on when they occur, how often they happen, and which patients are at risk of having serious, life-threatening types of abnormal heart rhythms. Some of these abnormal heart rhythms can be treated with medicine; others need electronic devices (e.g. pacemakers) implanted or inserted in the heart to prevent serious harm. The information on when is the best time to implant these life-saving devices remains limited. In this study, a small device known as an implantable loop recorder (ILR) will be implanted under the skin on the chest wall to continuously monitor participants' heart rhythm. This will help us answer some of the questions about what causes the abnormal heart rhythms, when they happen, and which patients are particularly likely to have them. Furthermore, it may help us to identify earlier, rather than later, those who are at risk of developing abnormal heart rhythms. This may lead to improvements in the care of people with cardiac amyloidosis in the future. Participants may not directly benefit from taking part in this study; however, there is a chance that the ILR may reveal heart rhythm abnormalities in some participants which might not be picked up otherwise, and so may lead to a change in their treatment.
Advances in surgical and medical care have led to improved outcomes in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). As a consequence, the majority of patients nowadays survives to adulthood (adults with CHD, that is, adult CHD [ACHD]) with good quality of life. Despite the surgical success, the morbidity and mortality of ACHD is higher than in the general population and is linked to the development of heart failure (HF) in adulthood. HF occurs in approximately 25% of patients with ACHD, even in those patients in whom the congenital mal-formation has been corrected successfully in childhood. The time course and presentation are heterogeneous owing to variable congenital malformation and limitation of treatment options. ACHD with an anatomic right ventricle as the systemic ventricle (e.g., atrial switch operation in patients with transposition of the great arteries [TGAs]) and those with a functional single ventricle (e.g., Fontan circulation) appear to be at higher risk of developing HF. Young age at initial corrective surgery-often in the first 2 years of life-and lack of specific medical therapies can contribute to a high and early demand for heart transplantation in patients with ACHD.
