Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship between the levels of Ribonucleic acid (RNA) circulating molecules, including ones in extracellular vesicles from different organs in the blood and in the saliva of patients with Acute Decompensated Heart Failure (ADHF) and Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) to see if a new, non-invasive diagnostic test can be developed for heart failure exacerbation.
Sensorum Health (Sensorum) is conducting a pilot study to determine if Sensorum's proprietary passive sensor network can be used to identify signals of early health decompensation in subjects prior to a hospitalization for chronic disease exacerbation or other ambulatory care sensitive conditions. Successful early detection would provide a window of opportunity to intervene outside of the acute setting in future interventional studies.

The AquaPass System is intended for enhancing fluid transfer through the skin, by increased sweat rate, in fluid overloaded patients. This study will examine safety, performance and usability of the AquaPass device in two phases: Phase 1: Hospitalization treatment. Phase 2: Home/outpatient clinic treatment
Single-center, two-arm, parallel, randomized controlled trial comparing enhanced daily assessments for patients with COPD and/or CHF using point of care ultrasound with PRESUNA software (POCUS-PRESUNA) versus standard care provided by home-based acute care through a tertiary acute care medical teaching hospital. The objectives are to evaluate POCUS-PRESUNA on improving patient experience, provider experience, improve healthcare utilization/costs, and to test the feasibility of incorporating longitudinal POCUS assessments in home-based acute care via remotely acquired images by non-physicians.
CHF is a most wild-spread and prognostically poor outcome most of cardiovascular and other disease. Despite of significant progress in treatment of CHF for the last years, death from this pathology stayed very high, reaching 60% for men, 45% for women during the 5 years after establishing diagnosis. The purpose of treatment is creating "seamless" system of care the whole continuum stretch CHF, in this connection, the particular relevance take in creating of new way and strategy with IT-technology mHealth. On the whole, mHealth application potentially suggest economic efficiency solution with continuous access for symptoms monitoring, stimulation of patients to self-servicing, self-controlling and achieving better results compare with optimal medical therapy. So, remote monitoring of patients on the base of mobile application must improve clinical and economic efficiency of medical care received. In trial will be studied efficiency of using mobile application for remote monitoring of patients with ischemic etiology HF, also quality of life, commitment to therapy and prognosis (frequency of cardiovascular poor outcomes). Clinical indicators and tests (Quality of Life Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, 6-minute walking test) will be evaluated in the beginning of the trial and repeatly after 1 year. Trial financed by Kyrgyz Republic Ministry of Education and Science.
The combination of heart failure (HF) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is highly prevalent, but underdiagnosed and poorly recognized. It has been suggested that the decline in functional capacity is associated with musculoskeletal and systemic changes than primary organ (heart and/or lung) failure. In addition, it is recognized that both diseases have several mechanisms that are responsible for musculoskeletal impairment. However, the association of reduced systemic perfusion with low oxygen content observed in the association of HF and COPD may contribute to the worsening of the components of the muscle impairment cascade. Thus, muscle strength and fatigue may not only be even more altered but may also be the main determinants of functional capacity in patients with coexistence of HF and COPD. Although many studies have evaluated the muscle performance of patients with HF or COPD, the literature did not show data on worsening due to the association of the diseases. Particularities identification of the muscle impairment in the coexistence of HF and COPD is fundamental for the development of rehabilitation strategies, mainly through physical exercise. In this line, the present study tested the hypothesis that the coexistence of HF and COPD could present lower values of strength and greater fatigue. Similarly, the muscle dysfunction degree could strongly correlate with the performance markers of the incremental or functional tests in patients with HF associated with COPD. The study protocol was reviewed and approved by the Institutional Research Board. All subjects gave written informed consent before participating in the study.
This is an 8-week randomized controlled trial to help address health, resilience, and well-being. Participants are randomized into either a health education group or an arts-based health education group. Both groups will attend for 8 weeks and various study assessments will be conducted in order to measure the experience and impact of the program. Anyone 18 years and older with a chronic health condition (for example, diabetes, hypertension, congestive heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, asthma, weight, anxiety, depression, cardiac, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and many more) are eligible to participate.
Aim of this multicenter prospective cohort study is the evaluation of the multidimensional qualities of dyspnea in a number of diseases using the Multidimensional Dyspnea Profile (Banzett et al, ERJ 2015).
The purpose of this study is to establish the various ranges of proteins that can be assayed in the plasma and urine from hospitalized patients with all classes of heart failure and/or STEMI (ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction)/NSTEMI (Non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction), as well as history reviews.
