NCT ID: NCT05086653 Completed - Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trials

Complications From Left Atrial Appendage Occluder

Start date: June 20, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The following case reported a rare complication of left atrial appendage perforation complicated by cardiac tamponade during LAAO device deployment and its corresponding surgical management

NCT ID: NCT02961439 Completed - Pulmonary Embolism Clinical Trials

Validation of Epworth Richmond's Echocardiography Education Focused Year

VEREEFY
Start date: November 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The use of echocardiography in intensive care is a developing field. In expert hands echocardiography has proven its utility in diagnosing cardiac pathology, differentiating shock states and in haemodynamic monitoring. However, whether the results obtained by experts can be generalized to trainees or specialists with limited training remains unclear. Further, concerns around training time and cost for intensive care staff have been a factor in limiting the uptake of echocardiography in intensive care. The investigators aim to assess the diagnostic accuracy of Australian ICU doctors in training after completion of the current minimum training. After completing a structured teaching program and 30 mentored training scans trainees will be assessed on their accuracy with echocardiography. In the research phase trainees will complete a further 40 scans with each one matched with an expect scan. The results from the expert and trainee scans will be compared to determine the trainee's accuracy.

NCT ID: NCT02808897 Completed - Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trials

Active Clearance of Chest Tubes After Cardiac Surgery: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Study

Start date: November 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the PleuraFlow® Active Tube Clearance (ATC) technology in reducing the rate of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) among post cardiac surgery patients and to evaluate the impact of Active Tube Clearance (ATC) on other complications, such as retained blood syndrome (RBS), a composite endpoint including re-exploration for bleeding or tamponade, and interventions for hemothorax, pericardial or pleural effusion.

NCT ID: NCT00684125 Completed - Clinical trials for Pericardial Effusion

Evaluation of Different Strategies of Pericardial Drainage After Aortic Valvular Surgery

Blake
Start date: June 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The incidence of pericardial effusion and late cardiac tamponade after aortic and valvular surgery is higher than after other cardiac surgical procedures. The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical safety and efficacy of prolonged mediastinal drainage using small, soft silastic drains (Blake drain, Ethicon USA) versus conventional mediastinal drainage using large chest tubes. A prospective randomized trial.
