NCT ID: NCT06447857 Completed - Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trials

Extracellular Volume Associated With New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation

Start date: January 1, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Left ventricular fibrosis is strongly associated with atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the relationship between LV fibrosis and new-onset AF (NOAF) after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is currently unknown. This study was to investigate the relationship between different regions of ECV and NOAF during the acute phase of STEMI. ECV in integral (integral ECV), non-myocardial infarction region (NMI-ECV) and myocardial infarction region (MI-ECV) was obtained by CMR.

NCT ID: NCT04163614 Recruiting - Hypertension Clinical Trials

Blood Pressure Slopes and Ultrafiltration in Hemodialysis Patients

Start date: February 10, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Kidney failure has been recognized as one of the most costly chronic conditions among United States Veterans. Approximately 13,000 Veterans develop kidney failure each year, and most require hemodialysis initiation. Hemodialysis patients suffer significantly increased risk of death and hospitalizations, and excessive body fluid is a major cause of this. While empiric aggressive fluid removal during dialysis is one approach to limit fluid overload, this can cause dangerous decreases in blood pressure during dialysis that independently contribute to the high death rate. In this study, I aim to test a new strategy that prescribes fluid removal based on a patient's recent blood pressure patterns during dialysis. This clinical trial will compare my strategy to standard care and assess the outcomes of overall blood pressure change between dialysis treatments in addition to the number of times the blood pressure becomes dangerously low during dialysis. Another aim is to determine how differences in the structure and function of the heart influence blood pressure during dialysis.
