Filter by:This study aims to investigate the myocardial phenotype of patients with type 2 diabetes. From 2016-2019 the investigators recruited a cohort of 296 subjects with type 2 diabetes. All subjects underwent clinical examinations including a gadolinium contrast cardiac MRI. The current study is a clinical follow-up study of the subjects, thus, the investigators will invite all participants to a reevaluation with cardiac MRI. Additionally, the investigators will aim at recruiting additionally 400 patients with type 2 diabetes. The aim it to characterize the phenotype of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Uniquely using cardiac MRI we can measure myocardial microvascular function, myocardial localised and diffuse fibrosis in addition to the quantification of myocardial structure and systolic and diastolic function.
LEAP-CAR will evaluate the benefit of left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP), comparing to conventional right ventricular pacing (RVP), in preventing pacing-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM) in patients undergoing pacemaker implant for advanced (2° or 3° degree) atrioventricular block, with baseline left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >45%. LEAP-CAR is a randomized, prospective, double blind clinical trial.
Clinical comparison of patients with transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis and patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction
This randomized study compares the effects of conventional (right ventricular pacing in patients with LVEF ≥ 40% and cardiac resynchronization therapy in patients with LVEF < 40 %) versus left bundle branch pacing on left ventricular remodelling in patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (< 50 %) that need permanent pacemaker implantation after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
WILLEM is a multi-center, prospective and retrospective cohort study. The study will assess the performance of a cloud-based and AI-powered ECG analysis platform, named Willem™, developed to detect arrhythmias and other abnormal cardiac patterns. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. A new AI-powered ECG analysis platform can automatice the classification and prediction of cardiac arrhythmic episodes at a cardiologist level. 2. This AI-powered ECG analysis can delay or even avoid harmful therapies and severe cardiac adverse events such as sudden death. The prerequisites for inclusion of patients will be the availability of at least one ECG record in raw data, along with patient clinical data and evolution data after more than 1-year follow-up. Cardiac electrical signals from multiple medical devices will be collected by cardiology experts after obtaining the informed consent. Every cardiac electrical signal from every subject will be reviewed by a board-certified cardiologist to label the arrhythmias and patterns recorded in those tracings. In order to obtain tracings of relevant information, >95% of the subjects enrolled will have rhythm disorders or abnormal ECG's patterns at the time of enrollment.
Radiofrequency ablation of ventricular tachycardias (VTs) is the gold standard treatment of refractory VTs in patients with ischaemic heart disease. In this setting, ablation is usually performed endocardially. However, even after a procedural success there is a high risk of recurrence, particularly due to the inability to create transmural lesions. Indeed, only the endocardium of the LV has been ablated, while a significant part of the arrhythmia substrate may be located on the other side of the myocardial thickness, on the epicardial side of the LV. First described in 1996, epicardial ablation, performed via a percutaneous subxyphoid approach, has since undergone considerable development. Electrophysiologists often use a double endo- and epicardial approach as first line therapy for the ablation of VTs complicating myocarditis or arrhythmogenic dysplasia of the right ventricle, where the substrate is most often epicardial. For VT in ischaemic heart disease, electrophysiologists perform endocardial ablation, and often perform epicardial ablation only after several endocardial failures. Several observational studies suggest that a combined endo- and epicardial approach as first line therapy is associated with a reduced risk of VT recurrence. Since recurrent VT in patients with ischaemic heart disease as a prognostic impact in terms of morbidity and mortality, it appears essential to optimise rhythm management by ablation, by offering a combined approach from the as first approach to reduce the risk of recurrences. The aim of our prospective, multicentre, controlled, randomized study is therefore to compare the rate of VT recurrence after ablation performed as first line therapy either by endocardial approach alone or by combined endo-epicardial approach.
