Filter by:From the literature, the success rate (i.e., absence of AF recurrence) of ablation in cases of paroxysmal AF at one year changes between 70 and 85 percent. This rate is considered suboptimal. Currently there are no data that can assess which factors are predictive of recurrence both clinically and electrophysiologically. In particular, it is not known whether and to what extent the atrial substrate present under baseline conditions affects the success rate of the procedure and what relationships exist with other predictors such as age, sex, atrial size at echo, and duration of arrhythmia.
The goal of this Observational Prospective Multi-center Study is to observe the acute and long-term safety and performance outcomes after spatiotemporal dispersion-based AF/AT ablation utilizing the Volta Medical AI software in "real-life" clinical practice, without any imposed clinical workflow. Moreover, this study will allow to collect medico-economic data related to the tailored ablation strategy guided by the Volta Medical AI software.
The LockeT II study is a single center, prospective randomized study. It is intended to study the effectiveness of using LockeT device to gain hemostasis after venous procedures as compared to Manual Compression (MC). Approximately 110 patients will be enrolled.
The goal of this interventional study is to evaluate the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) and other cardiac arrhythmias and diseases in breast cancer patients treated with radiation therapy (RT). In addition to regular follow-up of patients by the radiation oncologist for 5 years, cardiovascular screening at the end of follow-up, combining the use of a connected watch and a cardiological check-up, could make it possible to identify precisely the types and frequencies of these sometimes asymptomatic, and probably underestimated, cardiac diseases. The main questions it aims to answer are: - To assess the incidence of AF and other cardiac arrhythmias and diseases occurring within 5 years after RT - To evaluate absorbed doses in the heart and cardiac substructures (chambers, conduction nodes, coronaries, pulmonary veins) based on auto-segmentation models developped with deep learning algorithms - To investigate whether the risk of AF and other cardiac arrhythmias and diseases is associated with cardiac irradiation characterized by these absorbed doses (dose-response relationship) Participants will be included between 2023 and 2025, 5 years after their RT: - Retrospective data collection will be based on a medical questionnaire designed to identify cardiac pathologies present prior to RT and those having occured in the past, between RT and 5 years post-RT. - Cross-sectional data collection will be based on screening for cardiac pathologies using a connected watch worn for 1 month (silent AF screening) and a cardiology consultation (including ECG and echocardiography) to identify cardiac pathologies at 5 years post-RT possibly not identified in the retrospective data collection.
Psychological distress (anxiety and depression) is common in and experienced differently by people living with long-term health conditions (LTCs). Being able to measure whether psychological distress is related to living with a LTC would allow researchers and clinicians to provide interventions specifically tailored to the challenges of living with a LTC and therefore provide the most appropriate support for these patients. Such a measure would also be useful in research to identify the presence of illness-related distress in different patient groups. This project will therefore create a new measure of illness-related distress that has applications for both research and clinical practice. This will involve the psychometric validation of the new illness-related distress measure to test how valid and reliable the measure is. The aim of the project is to provide initial validation of the Illness Related Distress Scale in a community sample, recruited through online platforms. The objective of the study is to gather initial validity and reliability data for the scale.
This phase II trial studies how well amiodarone works in the prevention of atrial fibrillation (AF) after a minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) in patients with esophageal cancer. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an irregular heart rhythm, usually associated with a rapid rate, that is caused by abnormal electrical activity within the atria. AF is the most common complication after MIE for esophageal cancer. There has never been a study of AF after MIE that has used unbiased assignment of patients to receive preventative amiodarone or not. Further, there is no standard recommendation or guideline for preventative medications, such as amiodarone, to decrease the risk of AF in patients having MIE performed for cancer. In fact, most medical centers in the United States and around the world do not give preventative amiodarone after esophagectomy. Giving amiodarone after MIE surgery may be able to reduce the risk of AF for patients with esophageal cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the combination of CardiaMend, with the addition of amiodarone in the prevention of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) in patients undergoing cardiac arterial bypass grafting (CABG) or valve surgery.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the functional benefit of left bundle branch of His pacing compared to right ventricular pacing in patients implanted with a pacemaker prior to a atrioventricular node ablation procedure for rapid atrial fibrillation
This is a prospective, single center, non-randomized study with two parallel arms intended to study if 4D Intracardiac echocardiography (4D-ICE) (Nuvision, Nuvera TM) will provide better visualization of the anatomical landmarks from the larger imaging volume and provide optimal intra procedural guidance similar to Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) (GE 6VT-D ULTRASOUND TRANSDUCER) for Left atrial appendage closure (LAAC). The study will enroll approximately 52 subjects and will be followed through 12 months.
