Filter by:The objective of the study is to determine whether treatment of the low IGF-1 syndrome in patients with CHF is able to modify some functional parameters, recognized as valid surrogate end-points of CHF progression.
Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Recombinant Human Neuregulin-1 for Subcutaneous Administration in Patients With Chronic Systolic Heart Failure
Sleep disordered breathing is common in patients with chronic heart failure. Adaptive servoventilation is a novel method of treatment central sleep apnoea, especially associated with Cheyne-Stokes-respiration. The aim of the study is to investigate effect of adaptive servoventilation on cardiac function, exercise tolerance and quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure.
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of Adaptive Servo Ventilation (Bipap® auto SV Advanced) and oxygen therapy in chronic heart failure patients complicated with central sleep apnea.
The aim of the present study is to compare the response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in patients with chronic advanced heart failure and permanent atrial fibrillation (AF) depending on atrio ventricular junction (AVJ) is ablated or not.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of the HeartWare Ventricular Assist System in patients with chronic Stage D/ New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class IIIB/IV left ventricular failure who have received and failed optimal medical therapy, and who are ineligible for cardiac transplantation.
Shortness of breath, fatigue, and exercise intolerance are clinical symptoms of chronic heart failure (CHF). Recent studies suggested that peripheral impairment was the major cause of clinical symptoms, and mechanism may be related to neuroendocrine impairment and vascular smooth muscle dysfunction. It results in increased peripheral resistance that may influence limb blood flow, muscle fitness and activities of daily.The purposes of this study are 1. to compare muscular strength, endurance, and perfusion of quadriceps between CHF patients and healthy controls by isokinetic test and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and difference in activities of daily living 2. to compare endothelium function between CHF patients and healthy control subjects 3. the relationship between endothelium function, muscular strength, endurance, perfusion, and metabolism of quadriceps.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy of rhNRG-1 in reducing the death rate of heart failure.
The purpose of this study is to study the use of neurostimulation in chronic advanced refractory heart failure. The study is determine if it is safe to use neurostimulation in patients with chronic advanced refractory heart failure and to also determine initial observations with regards to its potential effect on heart function and quality of life. The investigators hypothesis is that this study will show both safe and positive effect of neurostimulation on heart failure patients.
The study is performed to consider the effect of thiamine supplementation on symptoms and signs of patients with heart failure and systolic and diastolic function of left ventricle.
