Filter by:To evaluate cardio-renal and overall safety profile of GE 145 320 mg I/ml Injection when compared to iopamidol 370 mg I/mL. The study will focus on elderly subjects with either chronic renal insufficiency, or diabetes mellitus (DM) requiring drug therapy, or congestive heart failure (CHF) NYHA Class III or greater, who are referred for a coronary catheterization procedure with or without PCI.
Evaluation of non-invasive treatment modality, using low-intensity extracorporeal shockwaves for treatment of subjects diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure, with ischemic etiology.
The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the IK-5001 device for the prevention of ventricular remodeling and congestive heart failure when administered to subjects who had successful percutaneous coronary intervention with stent placement after ST segment elevation MI (STEMI).
The study consists in two treatment groups, one group will receive Diurisa® (furosemide 40 mg + amiloride chloride 10 mg) and the other one will receive furosemide 40 mg (Lasix®)
Early morning weights to monitor CHF patient's fluid status is common practice but there is a lack of evidence that this is the best practice. The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a difference in net weight gain or loss for hospitalized patients with CHF who are weighed in the evening instead of early morning.
Trained lay persons ("care guides") working with chronic disease patients and their providers can help outpatients with diabetes, hypertension, and congestive heart failure achieve standard clinical care goals
This is a research study that is evaluating blood markers which may predict which patients who receive CRT will improve. Congestive heart failure (CHF) is associated with increased oxidative stress, a condition where abnormal oxygen forms are produced. These forms harm the cells of the heart and cause damage to the heart muscle. We would like to see if blood levels of these forms improve after CRT, and if they can be measured early after surgery to predict who will and who will not benefit from surgery.
The purpose of this research study is to see whether a tele-health intervention can improve health, functioning status, emotional status, quality of life, and patient satisfaction for patients with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) and to examine the cost benefits of this intervention.
For complex medical patients, the transition from hospital to home-based care is a vulnerable period, placing the patient at high risk for adverse events. Using a Care Transition conceptual model, the investigators propose developing and evaluating, through a randomized controlled trial, "e-Coach," an Interactive-Voice-Response-supported (IVR) Care Transition coaching intervention, focused initially on patients hospitalized with heart failure or obstructive lung disease. This trial will test the primary hypothesis that the proportion of patients with one or more re-hospitalizations during a 90-day post-discharge follow-up period will be less in an IVRsupported care transition intervention (e-Coach) compared to a "usual care" comparison group.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the forehand location for sensor placement has less episodes of signal dropout than the finger sensor location. In addition, this study will evaluate two finger sensors, which utilize different technology to compare signal quality.
