Filter by:This study is to assess whether a lifestyle intervention with diet, exercise and counselling in young patients will have a positive influence on their weight and overall well-being. This study will enrol patients between the ages of 7 to 17 years of age, who have congenital heart disease, and have been identified being overweight or obese. A total of 40 individuals will participate in this study. The study duration will last for 1 year.
The purpose of this study is to further evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Harmony™ TPV system. The Pivotal/CAS phases of the study have transitioned into a post-approval study to confirm the long-term functionality of transcatheter implantation of the Medtronic Harmony TPV.
The objective of this study is to use of STIC technology to assist the traditional echocardiography to diagnose the fetal congenital heart disease accurately and then to provide a basis for prenatal counseling.
The aim is to conduct a prospective multi-centre international inception cohort study with an enrollment goal of 3,000 TOF patients and 2 year follow-up post-repair. The proposed sample size and methodology will result in statistically powerful results to allow for evidence-based change to current TOF surgical practices.
The objective of this study is to research the relationship between maternal exposure to environmental factors and fetal congenital heart disease in a community-based case-control study.
The incidence of congenital heart disease is about 8 per thousand live births. Thanks to advances in cardiac surgery, 90% of children born with heart defects reach adolescence and adulthood. Congenital heart defects are the leading cause of heart disease in young adults and expectant mothers in Western countries. The number of patients increases continuously as life expectancy increases. An increasing number of patients with complex heart defects survive to adulthood. The medico-surgical management of this highly specialized growing number of patients is difficult and requires a multidisciplinary collaboration. In France, an estimated 200,000 patients the number of carrier patients with congenital heart disease. Half of them will require monitoring, medical procedures, catheterizations and/or surgical re-intervention. No objective demographic data are currently available on the French patients. So, the investigators decided to set up an epidemiological project to better understand this cohort of patients. The main objective of this project is to obtain accurate epidemiological data needed to adapt the supply of care.
This study will conduct an initial clinical evaluation of this support program to examine its impact on reducing caregiver stress, increasing confidence in daily feeding, and improving weight-for-age growth percentiles in infants with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD).
This study will explore new ways of using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to evaluate pediatric patients with cardiovascular disease,congenital heart disease in patients of all ages, fetuses undergoing clinically indicated MR imaging.
Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) of the myocardium by limb ischemia/reperfusion may mitigate cardiac damage, but its interaction with the anesthetic regimen is unknown.
The aim of this study will be to evaluate vancomycin and cefoxitin blood levels during elective cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery in four pre-determined pediatric strata: neonates, infants, children weighting less than 40 kg and children weighting more than 40 kg.
