Filter by:Perioperative blockage of beta-adrenoreceptors is widely used in cardiac and non-cardiac surgery to reduce the rate of cardiovascular complications. Several randomized-controlled studies and meta-analysis showed that esmolol reduces the incidence of myocardial ischemia and arrhythmias in cardiac surgery as well as enhances postoperative cardiac performance. No studies assessed the influence of esmolol in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy undergoing cardiac surgery.
The objectives of this study are to determine if the left ventricle outflow tract (LVOT) gradients may be reproduced with dobutamine (DBT) provocation test in obstructive HCM patients under general anesthesia and to analyze the change in anatomic LVOT area and pressure gradients (PG) before and after septal myectomy. If the DBT stress test can reproduce preoperative gradients in HCM patients during septal myectomy surgery, surgeons will have the opportunity to assess the quality of the surgical procedure depending on the obtained gradients with DBT stress test after surgery when gradients can't be reproduced during general anesthesia after myectomy, and decide if further myectomy is required, saving a re-operation on the patient in the future.
This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of Fabry Disease (FD) among a cohort of high risk patients with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) presenting at the University Hospital Würzburg over the last 20 years. Fabry disease is a rare disease that is known to be consistently underdiagnosed due to its largely variable symptoms. Considering that an early Fabry diagnosis is crucial for maximum benefit from therapies available, screening for Fabry patients can contribute to preventing development and worsening of symptoms in Fabry patients with LVH. In addition, a positive diagnosis in a family member opens the possibility to diagnose further family members in an earlier stage of the disease, therefore allowing treatment of symptoms and organ manifestations before they become irreversible.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of squat-to-stand maneuver in eliciting left ventricular outflow gradients in patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) compared to Valsalva, amyl nitrite inhalation, and exercise stress echocardiogram (ESE).
Observational study on patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy aims to investigate the correlation between cardiac fibrosis, as indicated by cardiac magnetic resonance, and the prognosis, and further to explore biomarkers for cardiac fibrosis and adverse prognosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Therefore, endpoints including all-cause mortality, cardiovascular death, ventricular arrythmia, non-fatal stroke, non-fatal myocardial infarction, sudden death, successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation will be evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to collect long-term safety and tolerability data for aficamten (CK-3773274)
Correlation between Myocardial Deformation and Coronary Tortuosity and Analysis of Genetic Factors Among Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Patients
There is existing data in the literature that suggests an additional predictive value of three dimensional ECG with respect to the presence of electrical abnormalities and for an existing cardiac disease. Especially regarding patients who suffered from a myocardial infarction in the past (post MI patients), evidence has been provided for a potential association of 3D repolarisation abnormalities and incidence of sudden cardiac death (SCD). In addition, there is some vague evidence of so called 3D ECG and prediction of coronary artery disease. This 3D ECG device is using the technology of 3D ECG vector loops and is assessing the variability of these ECG vector loops in the 3-dimensional space. Based on these data, the parameters of 3D ECG are suggested to carry certain value to predict or to identify individuals already suffering from a cardiac disease or being at risk experiencing a cardiac event in the future. In this context we performed a preliminary study with 3D-ECG device in healthy volunteers evaluating the robustness of this method with respect to reproducibility, intra- and intra-observer variability which could be confirmed. We thus postulate that the 3D ECG technology might bear the potential to serve as a sufficient screening method for diagnosing cardiomyopathy in patients with an unknown heart failure etiology.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and potential efficacy of IMB-1018972 in patients with non-obstructive HCM.
The purposes of this study are to: 1. Learn about the safety of CK-3773274 after a single dose and multiple doses in Chinese healthy adult subjects. 2. Learn how healthy subjects tolerate CK-3773274 after a single dose and multiple doses. 3. Find out how much CK-3773274 is in the blood after a single dose and multiple doses. 4. Determine the effect of doses of CK-3773274 on the pumping function of the heart. 5. Evaluate the effect CYP2D6 genetic polymorphisms on how the body metabolizes CK-3773274.
