Filter by:Patients in the Intensive Cardiovascular Care Unit (ICCU) often present with cardiovascular disease (CVD) issues accompanied by various non-cardiovascular conditions. However, a widely applicable scoring system to predict patient outcomes in the ICCU is lacking. Therefore, developing and validating scores for predicting ICCU patient outcomes are warranted. The aims of the IndONEsia ICCU (One ICCU) registry include developing an epidemiological registry of ICCU patients and establishing a multicentre research network to analyse patient outcomes.This nationwide multicenter cohort will capture data from patients receiving cardiovascular critical care treatment in 10 Indonesian hospitals with ICCU facilities. Recorded data will encompass demographic characteristics, physical examination findings at hospital and ICCU admission, diagnoses at ICCU admission, therapy, intervention, complications on days 3 and 5 of in-ICCU care, in-hospital outcomes, and 30-day outcomes. The One ICCU is a large, prospective registry describing the care process and advancing clinical knowledge in ICCU patients. It will serve as an investigational platform for predicting the mortality of ICCU patients.
The goal of this single arm pre-test post-test design study is to test the impact of providing patients with information about community-based resources to address health-related social needs and cardiometabolic health in rural African American patients. The main question it aims to answer is: • What is the effectiveness of community resource information on patient self-efficacy to use community resources? Participants will be given: - A personalized "HealtheRx" resource with information about community resources related to food, housing, utility support, transportation, and crisis support. The HealtheRx is personalized for patients based on their age and zip code. - Access to a community resource navigator for support with using the HealtheRx upon request - 2 text messages with reminders about the HealtheRx and access to the community resource navigator
The purpose of this study is to map the neural and molecular mechanisms underlying psychological stress-induced changes in inflammation which could reveal new targets for intervention to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the prominent diseases that affect many people. One cost-effective solution is to identify people at higher risk of CVD by CVD risk prediction model. China-PAR, TRS-2P, and SMART2 are common risk prediction models for prevention. However, these risk scores were mostly based on the routinely self-check health information and multivariable regression without time-varying consideration. Investigators developed a Machine Learning (ML) based risk prediction model, Personalized CARdiovascular DIsease risk Assessment for Chinese (P-CARDIAC) among a predominantly Chinese population in Hong Kong to estimates the 10 years of secondary recurrent CVD risk for the high-risk individuals. The study objective is to evaluate the accuracy of the P-CARDIAC performance in practice among a large-scale Hong Kong population in medicine specialist outpatient clinic (SOPC) and cardiac clinic. The results will reassure cardiologists that the P-CARDIAC risk score is sensitive to the heart disease symptoms. Investigators anticipate that the results may help to facilitate P-CARDIAC in clinical setting and provide more practical information with the development of P-CARDIAC.
This is a Phase IV multicentre adaptive single-blinded randomized clinical trial if preemptively genotyping populations at risk of cardiovascular disease susceptible of receiving high or moderate doses of statin therapy is efficacious, cost-efficacious, and feasible within the Spanish National Health System when compared to the current standard of care. This trial is nested within the iPHARMGx master protocol
This protocol will collect real world EHR data to support the product development life cycle activities associated with developing the Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) Clinical Decision Support (CDS) software. The data will also be utilized in subsequent clinical validation to support an FDA application and/or applications to other regulatory agencies as needed.
Recent investigations have shown that of the patients who were affected by SARCov2 have remained with persistent symptoms in a high proportion. In these considerations, the literature has suggested nomenclatures such as "post-COVID-19" and "chronic COVID-19", "long -COVID" and Post-Covid Syndrome for patients recovered from SARCov2 reporting persistent symptoms and signs for weeks to months after resolution of the acute infection. Furthermore, there may be cardiovascular complications in affected patients, the consequences of which can lead to muscle contractility disorders, vascular insufficiency, cardiac arrest, reinforcing the need for controlled, randomized studies, as well as follow-up and monitoring of these. Furthermore, cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are part of the health problems that lead to the most deaths in the world, they also lead to a high proportion of hospital admissions, due to the worsening of the pathology and a higher incidence in the elderly population. The worsening of CVD conditions leads to inadequate food consumption at the hospital level, causing changes in several nutrients, including vitamin B12. The reduction in B12 levels leads to changes in several systems, including the cardiovascular system, and due to the increase in homocysteine and the triggering of the inflammatory cascade. Studies indicate that B12 supplementation through Chlorella (microalgae - functional food) reduced cardiovascular risk and modulated the inflammatory cascade. In combination, neurostimulation has presented aspects that promote pain neuromodulation, due to the improvement of respiratory patterns and inflammatory modulation. More specifically, there is a protocol with promoting findings, this being HD-tDCS. In this sense, this research aims to evaluate the effects of HD-tDCS and the consumption of Chlorella Pyrenoidosa to improve B12 levels in patients with cardiovascular risk post-COVID-19.
Participants are being recruited at the inpatient department of the National Medical Research Center of Cardiology on a 'all-comers' basis. The enrolled participants will be divided into the main group (diagnosed with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD)) and control (not diagnosed with ASCVD). The participants will have whole blood and serum collected at enrollment for further biobanking. A genome-wide association study will be carried out to determine the genetic determinants associated with atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, acute coronary syndrome, etc., including a search for pathogenic variants.
Women with breast cancer treated using anthracyclines and/or trastuzumab are at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) following treatment completion. Exercise is known to reduce CVD risk in healthy and several clinical populations, but, whether existing cardiac rehabilitation programs can be leveraged to reduce CVD risk in breast cancer survivors is unknown. This study aims to: i) understand the feasibility of virtual versus in-person cardiac rehabilitation in breast cancer survivors; and ii) compare the effect of virtual versus in-person cardiac rehabilitation on cardiovascular function and injury biomarkers, physical fitness, and psychosocial health. 50 breast cancer survivors with increased CVD risk will be recruited and randomized to either the in-person or virtual arm of the cardiac rehabilitation program at Women's College Hospital (WCH). Data will be collected at baseline, following program completion, and 6-months after program completion. The primary outcomes are measures of study feasibility. Other clinically relevant outcomes to be collected include: i) imaging and blood-based biomarkers of cardiovascular function; ii) physical fitness; iii) objective and self-reported physical activity levels; and iv) self-reported measures of psychosocial wellbeing. These findings will be used to inform the design of a larger-scale cardio-oncology trial and will facilitate development of more comprehensive CVD risk management strategies for breast cancer survivors at WCH.
The study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Supernova stent retriever device, developed by Gravity Medical Technology, for treating acute ischemic stroke. The device is used to remove blood clots and restore blood flow to the brain .
