Filter by:The aims of this trial are: (A) to determine and compare the indices of exercise recommendations compliance after exercise prescription according to digital training and decision support system as compared to exercise prescription following the standard informative procedure among patients with cardiovascular disease. (B) to determine whether health literacy moderates effect of exercise prescription according to digital training and decision support system on the indices of exercise recommendations compliance among patients with cardiovascular disease.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sonodynamic therapy (SDT) in reducing atherosclerotic plaques inflammation and increasing peak walking time (PWT) among peripheral artery disease (PAD) patients with symptom of intermittent claudication.
RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS - In subjects with T2DM and HF, effect of canagliflozin will be superior to placebo for the change from baseline in PCWP after a single dose (6 hours post-dose) and after 4 weeks. - Treatment with canagliflozin will be well tolerated over 4 weeks.
Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death in the United States and the world. Many interventions relating to prevention have been emphasized as more risk factors for this devastating disease are discovered. Periodontal disease is known to have a close association with cardiovascular disease, but its role as a risk factor is still not well understood. Inflammation is a driving force in both of these diseases, creating a potential bridge between the two. Specifically, periodontal disease can cause an inflammatory reaction in the body, which may predispose or even directly contribute to atheroma formation in the coronary arteries. In this study, the investigators will study the link between the inflammatory state of the body and will search for a correlation with levels of coronary artery disease and periodontal disease. Inflammatory markers such as high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels in the patient's blood will be analyzed and correlated to clinical attachment loss measured via pocket depth measurement, the distance from the gingival margin to the base of the pocket. A definitive link between these disease processes will allow preventive measures to be taken earlier to prevent this lifelong disease.
The goal of this project is to evaluate the nicotine induced acute cardiovascular changes in E-Cigarette users and also study the mechanism involved particularly with vascular impairment.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the benefit of IQP-AS-118 on the vasoactive effects in healthy subjects.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of acute isoquercetin supplementation, aspirin, and isoquercetin/aspirin combination on platelet aggregation, blood pressure and vasculat stiffness (eg digital volume pulse), as well as investigating the plasma accumulation and urine excretion profiles of quercetin.
The purpose of this study is to explore how the End Tidal Carbon Dioxide monitoring via nasal cannula (ETCO2-NC) device may allow for earlier detection of respiratory complications. This device will detect the amount of carbon dioxide exhaled with each breath and may better predict high levels of this than traditional monitoring. This may reduce the number and severity of respiratory issues. A convenience sample of 60 participants either scheduled for continuous flow left ventricular assist device (CF-LVAD) implant or who have been readmitted to an ICU with a CF-LVAD will be recruited and randomized to usual care or usual care plus ETCO2-NC throughout their stay in the ICU.
The main objective is to assess the effectiveness and safety of the NeoChord DS1000 repair technique as compared with conventional open-heart on-pump mitral valve surgery in patients with severe primary mitral regurgitation.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of 35 EECP sessions on cardiopulmonary training performance in healthy volunteers. Data from this study will be used to generate sample size and power calculations for feasibility of future EECP studies. The results of this study could provide evidence that can help active duty and Department of Defense beneficiaries optimize physical conditioning, endurance and overall health.
