Filter by:Heart scarring, also known as fibrosis, plays a major role in a lot of heart muscle abnormalities. These abnormalities of the heart muscle can lead to major issues such as symptoms of heart failure, dangerous heart rhythm disturbances and even death. However, a lot of these conditions are still not fully understood and treatment options are limited. We here aim to use a new radioactive dye called 68Ga-FAPI to identify patterns and the activity of heart muscle scarring. This radioactive dye is being used in humans particularly in identifying and monitoring cancers and has shown promise in identifying scarring in the heart as well. This will help us not only understand the underlying disease process and risk stratify these patients but also potentially help us develop new targeted therapies that can affect heart muscle scarring. Participants will undergo a baseline MRI scan using this new dye and a plain MRI scan will repeated 12-18 months after to see if there are any changes in the process.
This study aims to evaluate the impact of Sodium-dependent glucose transporters 2 inhibitor Empagliflozin on the exercise capacity,symptoms of heart failure, cardiac function, myocardial remodeling and quality of life of nonobstructive HCM patients with HFpEF.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic disorder characterized by asymmetric hypertrophy of the heart in absence of loading conditions like hypertension. The genetic mutation underlying HCM sets in motion a cascade of functional and metabolic changes ultimately leading to disease. HCM patients often have microvascular dysfunction and myocardial perfusion deficits, of which the aetiology has not been elucidated. Whether these changes are secondary to remodelling or primarily caused by endothelial dysfunction is unclear. As the pathomechanism of HCM is thought to be a cascade of changes, it is important to gain more insight in the perfusion and endothelial function changes throughout different stages of disease: no phenotype, mild phenotype, and advanced HCM phenotype. In this study we aim to investigate these changes in the two most common genetic mutations.
This single-center, prospective, open-label, randomized, controlled clinical trial is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of the Thoracoscopic Morrow procedure in the treatment of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. The primary objectives include investigating: Question 1: The efficacy and safety of two surgical modalities in patients presenting with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and mid-left ventricular hypertrophy. Question 2: The impact of the two surgical procedures on hemodynamics in patients with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, mid-left ventricular obstruction, and in individuals with or without organic valvular lesions. Question 3: The effects of the two surgical procedures on exercise capacity, quality of life, and long-term prognosis among patients with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and central left ventricular obstruction, both with and without valvular lesions. Participants will be stratified into two groups. The experimental group will undergo thoracoscopic Morrow surgery, while the control group will undergo median open modified enlarged Morrow surgery.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is hallmarked by the presence of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and may present various symptoms including arrhythmia and heart failure. Mutations in the genes related to sarcomeric proteins and metabolic disorders are known causes of HCM. However, it remains required to further explore the prevalence of HCM in the context of Taiwanese' genetic background. Additionally, certain rare diseases that affect the heart, including Fabry disease, cardiac amyloidosis, may present LVH, which makes precise diagnosis among HCM and these diseases more challenging. In this TSOC multi-center registry, we aim to systematically evaluate the clinical, genetic, biochemical features,prevalence, and possible natural course of HCM and relevant rare diseases such as Fabry disease in Taiwan. In the meanwhile, we may also generate the specific "red-flag" signs of Fabry disease in Taiwan.
The Austrian Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) Registry is a prospective, multicenter registry enrolling patients at multiple outpatient clinics across Austria including academic and non-academic centers. Patients will undergo a structured examination process including assessment for symptoms of HCM, past medical history, concomitant medication, family history and the presence of HCM-specific red flags. Furthermore, clinical data derived from electrocardiogram, echocardiography, laboratory analysis, and genetic testing will be collected focusing on a lean variable dictionary and, in addition, specific hypothesis-driven research parameters. All data are entered into an electronic case report form (eCRF) (Phoenix Clinical Trial Management System). In order to perform multicenter analyses, data can be extracted from the eCRF after approval by the steering committee.
This study is being conducted in order to understand the safety and effects of different doses of EDG-7500 either as a single or multiple dose in adult patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the AI-ECG algorithm for HCM in detecting HCM and in differentiating it from athlete's heart using not only the standard 12-lead ECG, but also ECGs obtained with the Apple Watch and Alivecor KardiaMobile devices.
The study aims to establish a diagnostic model of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with artificial intelligence-enhanced electrocardiogram.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common clinical genetic-related disease, with a global incidence of 0.2%-0.5%, but only a few cases (10-20%) have been clinically diagnosed. About 70% of them are hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM), these HOCM patients have significant clinical symptoms, including progressively increasing fatigue, angina, exertional dyspnea, and syncope. Conservative medications are used to treat the vast majority of patients. Invasive therapy, which includes surgical myectomy, percutaneous transluminal septal myocardial ablation(PTSMA), percutaneous intramyocardial septal radiofrequency ablation (PIMSRA) and percutaneous endocardial septal radiofrequency ablation (PESA) is introduced to patients with refractory symptoms or drug resistance. However, surgical operations are complicated and high risk procedures with high mortality. Interventional approaches are very difficult to perform and therefore the application is limited. Previous researches have shown that interventricular septal radiofrequency ablation could effectively reduce the left ventricular outflow tract pressure gradient (LVOTG), thereby treating obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HOCM). This device is based on the same radiofrequency ablation energy principle, however, the catheter is introduced into the right ventricle and performs ablation treatment on the hypertrophic interventricular septum, which is potentially a lower risk route of access for septal ablation than currently attempted interventional approaches. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of percutaneous intramyocardial septal ablation catheters in the treatment of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
