Current guidelines regarding physical activity in patients with inherited arrhythmia and cardiomyopathy are mostly dedicated to adult patients, with a special focus on sports competition. Their application to the pediatric population has been scarcely evaluated. Physical activity is well known for its health benefits but may be dangerous in this population, which leads to confusion within the medical community and among patients. Actual physical activity of children with such inherited cardiac disorders is unknown. This study aimed to assess the level of physical activity in children with inherited arrhythmia and cardiomyopathy, and the adherence to the current European guidelines on the subject. Secondary objectives aimed to assess through a qualitative analysis the impact of the disease on physical activity and daily life in this population. The level of physical activity and adherence to current guidelines will be determined from interviews between the patient and the principal investigator. Each patient will be questioned in order to explore the experiences, motivations and feelings of participants regarding physical activity. The standardized questionnaire was created by the principal investigator and members of the clinical research team. The investigators believe that many children practice physical activity outside the current guidelines and hope to identify the main determinants of physical activity in this population.
This study is designed to quantify the ventricular stasis in patients with different forms of cardiomyopathy and at risk of stroke (ischemic, non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy) by post-processing of 2D color Doppler echocardiography and phase contrast-magnetic resonance images in order to establish the relationship between quantitative variables of intraventricular stasis and the prevalence of silent embolic events and/or intraventricular mural thrombosis.
The Dilated Cardiomyopathy-Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (DCM-CMR) Study is an ancillary study from the parent study, DCM Precision Medicine Study. The rationale for the DCM-CMR study is to leverage cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging to detect earliest findings of DCM in the at-risk family members enrolled into the parent study.
- To determine normal T1 and T2 values of the liver, and to assess the impact of age and gender - To determine the relation between markers of right heart decompensation and T1/T2 values of the liver in patients with pulmonary hypertension, patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, and patients with constrictive pericarditis (or constrictive physiology) - To determine inter/intra-observer reproducibility for liver T1/T2 assessment - To test/develop multi-feature texture analysis for T1/T2 analysis of the liver and implement machine learning to derive indicative features (MR-derived measures only vs combined with other clinical readouts)
The purpose of this Phase 2a study is to establish safety and preliminary efficacy of treatment with danicamtiv in patients with primary dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) due to MYH7 or TTN variants or other causalities.
Patients with diagnostic CMR images for assessment of LGE/fibrosis and evidence/presence of non-ischaemic myocardial fibrosis/scar will be randomized to the following treatment groups in a 1:1 ratio: ICD group or Optimal HF care group.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an experimental drug called human allogeneic mesenchymal stem cell therapy.
The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of using this surgical technique in conjunction with bypass surgery to improve heart function and size, as well as decrease the possibility of future mitral valve surgery.
This study aims to identify and assess new CMR techniques that can improve current CMR protocols.
This is a monocentric, prospective, single arm, not for profit study. It is designed to study the early use of ivabradine in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and Ejection Fraction (EF) < 45%.
