Filter by:The overall objective of this pilot analysis is to characterize the hemodynamic changes that occur during implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) in patients with advanced heart failure - specifically, how right ventricular function is compromised as a result of LVAD implantation.
This is a purely observational project and the objectives are to record and analyze the local potentials at the site of Premature Ventricular Contraction (VPC) focus through the Rhythmia system, ti determine the short and long-term success of the procedure and compare it to the existing literature about standard procedures, to highlight the advantages of the system compared to conventional mapping and to characterize optimal pace map or activation map as achieved by the Rhythmia system.
The purpose of this Phase 1b/2a study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of MYK-491 in patients with stable heart failure.
Retrospective cohort study including patients with genetically proven Duchenne muscular dystrophy, diagnosed from January 1993 to March 2020. Inclusion of the data relative to genetic diagnosis, clinical characteristics at baseline, cardiac and respiratory workup, medical treatments (ACE inhibitors, steroids), surgical procedures, and occurrence during follow-up of cardiac, respiratory and fatal events. Objectives are to describe long-term natural history of the disease, vital prognosis, genotype-phenotype correlations, effect of treatments.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) due to a mutation of the gene encoding the lamin A/C protein (LMNA). The study will further evaluate a dose level of study drug (ARRY-371797) that has shown preliminary efficacy and safety in this patient population. After the primary analysis has been performed, eligible patients may receive open-label treatment with ARRY-371797.
This study is designed to quantify the ventricular stasis in patients with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy by post-processing of 2D color Doppler echocardiography 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 determined by magnetic resonance.
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a devastating X-linked disease which leads to loss of ambulation between ages 7 and 13, respiratory failure and cardiomyopathy (CM) at any age, and inevitably premature death of affected young men in their late twenties. DMD is the most common fatal genetic disorder diagnosed in childhood. It affects approximately 1 in every 3,500 live male births across all races and cultures, and results in 20,000 new cases each year worldwide.Significant advances in respiratory care have unmasked CM as the leading cause of death. As there are yet no specific cardiac treatments to extend life, the current study aims to address this unmet medical need using a new therapeutic strategy for patients with DMD.

The aim of this study is to assess microvascular function as determined by a cardiovascular magnetic resonance measurement of whole-heart (global) perfusion reserve. The goal is to determine the prevalence of MVD in two common forms of non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDCM). The hypothesis that an optimized technique will provide robust detection of MVD and that a multifaceted approach will provide new insights into the pathophysiology of MVD, including the influence of myocardial scarring upon the presence and severity of MVD.
Increasing cases of women with dilated cardiomyopathy with a project of pregnancy are observed. However there is few knowledge and publications about cardiac diseases in pregnant women. Moreover the majority of medical articles deal with women with congenital heart diseases, valvular pathologies or peripartum cardiomyopathies, and few data are available in literature about women with dilated cardiomyopathy diagnosed before or during the first months of the pregnancy. Cardiologist and obstetrician advices are considerably limited when patients with dilated cardiomyopathy have a pregnancy project. Knowledges and know-how are currently based on limited personal experiment or on few clinical cases descriptions. Pregnancy represents a high-risk situation for patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. Creation of a cohort of pregnant women with dilated cardiomyopathy collecting specific data will allow to have a better overview and to appreciate possibilities of a pregnancy project, evolution risks and modalities for medical attention and to improve follow-up and advices delivered to these patients.
PREDICT-DCM Trial is a multi-centre, prospective observational trial including patients with DCM undergoing cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) prior to ICD or event recorder implantation.
