Filter by:The goal of the this observational study is to gather clinically available data on patients presenting with a suspicion for arrhythmia-induced cardiomyopathy (AiCM) at the University Hospital Basel.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of an artificial intelligence-enabled ECG (AI-ECG) for cardiomyopathy detection in an obstetric population in Nigeria.
The purpose of this research is to find out if an aggressive intervention to lose weight, will improve symptoms in patients with obesity-related cardiomyopathy, which is also known as the obese phenotype of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
The objective of this study is to collect information on patients with cardiomyopathy (CM) due to mutations in the MYBPC3 gene, to evaluate their disease course, burden of illness, risk factors for this disease, and the quality of life (QoL). This study will also collect information on treatments, procedures and outcome in infants and children up to 18 yrs who have this mutation.
Collecting mono nuclear cells from the patient's blood after a course of granulocyte stimulation then injecting them into the weak heart muscle measuring the heart function at the beginning and after 2.4.6 months to assess the improvement due to this procedure, by comparing these patients to patients with the same condition treated the classic way.
Background: HCM is a genetic heart disease. It can cause fatigue, chest pain, or even death. For more than 50 years, a surgery called septal myectomy has been used to help people with this disease. Dr. Andrew G. Morrow originated the surgery and performed it more than 200 times at NIH starting in 1960. Researchers want to learn the long-term success of this surgery. Objective: To determine long-term survival at least 35 years after surgical myectomy at NIH and examine data for people who are confirmed to be deceased or alive. Eligibility: People who had surgical myectomy by Dr. Morrow from 1960 to 1983. Design: This study uses images and data that were obtained in the past. Many of the participants are deceased. Most of the others are no longer being followed at the NIH. The medical records of people treated by Dr. Morrow were microfiched. These records can be accessed at the NIH. The records will be searched for keywords to find participants for this study. Participants clinical data, such as lab testing and imaging, will be used. Other data collected as part of the original study will also be used. Researchers will use participants name, date of birth, and Social Security number to learn if they are alive or deceased. If they are deceased, researchers will try to find the age of death. Online databases and search engines will also be used. Survival data will be compared to data from the general U.S. population for the same time period. Data will be stored in a database that is password protected. The study will last about 1 year.
The association between myocardial inflammation (clinically represented by acute myocarditis episodes) and the later development of an arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy is widely elusive.
This is a prospective multi-center international registry. The objective of this registry is to collect prospective data on patients undergoing catheter ablation for Ventricular Tachycardia (VT) and Premature Ventricular Contractions (PVC). The registry will be used for clinical monitoring, research, and quality improvement purposes.
Myocarditis promotes the occurrence of serious cardiac arrhythmias and conduction disorders which may lead to sudden cardiac death, the need for catheter ablation of arrhythmia or implantation of a cardioverter-defibrillator or pacemaker. The aim of the study is to fill the evidence gap regarding the type and burden of arrhythmias in patients with myocarditis and their correlation with clinical parameters, biomarkers and additional tests. During a multi-center observational study, patients will be subjected to prolonged ECG monitoring. As a result, a risk scale will be created that can facilitate the identification of patients with an increased risk of arrhythmia and further specifying recommendations for therapeutic management.
Genetic mutations has been proved to be associated wth the onset of cardiomyopathy. In the present study, we intend to identify new related variants or genes. From March, 2003 to November, 2017, patients diagnosed as cardiomyopathy were consecutively recruited, and their sampled were drawn from peripheral blood. Paired control group were also enrolled. The whole exome sequencing was used to find out the variants associated with the onset of cardiomyopathy and its prognosis.
