Filter by:This is a prospective observational study, the purpose of which is to: 1. Characterize response of the AV conduction system to TAVR with various prostheses by recording continuous His bundle electrograms during valve placement. 2. Correlate preprocedure ECG features with changes in AV nodal and infranodal conduction during placement of the valve prosthesis. 3. Correlate changes in AV nodal and infranodal conduction during the procedure with risk of developing AV conduction block after TAVR. 4. Assess the contribution of stressing the conduction system by atrial pacing prior to and following TAVR to prediction of postprocedural heart block. Assess the correlation between new onset bundle branch block, site and degree of conduction block or delay and subsequent development of high-grade or complete AV block.
Evaluation of Ultrasound Guided Modified Pectoral Nerves Blocks in Transvenous Subpectoral pacemaker insertion in Children: Randomized Controlled Trial
Primary objective: To compare the safety and efficacy of closure strategies post venous access procedures. Hypothesis: We anticipate that the use of a venous closure device will decrease the time to hemostasis (TTH), time to ambulation (TTA) and time to discharge (TTD) compared to conventional methods of closure following venous access procedure.

Few studies are specifically designed to address health concerns that are already relevant during pregnancy. The consequence is a lack of evidence on best clinical practice. This includes mothers and their babies when pregnancy is complicated by an abnormally slow heart rate due to maternal antibody-mediated heart disease in the unborn baby (fetus). Since the late seventies, it has been possible to detect and monitor fetal disease by ultrasound images and to treat selected conditions with pharmaceuticals administered via the mother. To this day, physicians need to make decisions about the management of such pregnancies without evidence from prospective clinical trials on drug efficacy and safety. The SLOW HEART REGISTRY is a multi-centered prospective observational study that will address the knowledge gap to guide future management of high-degree immune-mediated heart block to the best of care. The study seeks to establish an international database of the management and outcome of affected fetuses, to be used to publish information on the results of currently available prenatal care and to evaluate the need for additional research.
Cardiac electrical mapping is an important tool that allows doctors to study the electrical activity of the heart in detail. Electrical mapping systems used in clinical practice are time consuming, invasive and very costly. Ultra-high frequency electrocardiography is a novel non-invasive cardiac mapping system. Ultra-high frequency electrocardiography (UHF-ECG) can be performed in 10-15 minutes without any risk or discomfort to patients. The aim of this study is to refine this mapping system, verify it against invasive mapping and develop software to bring this novel system into routine clinical use including predicting which patients will respond to cardiac resynchronisation therapy.
This is a prospective single center Cardiology department observational study. The study aim is to better understand the predictors of high grade conduction abnormalities associated with TAVR such that a more robust evidence-based and universal strategy to manage cardiac conduction disturbances in these patients, which has been elusive, can be developed.
The study will investigate the feasibility of using direct HIS pacing or left bundle branch pacing (LBB pacing) as an alternative to biventricular pacing in patients with symptomatic heart failure and an ECG with a typical left bundle branch block pattern.
Clinical, structural and mechanical features in patients with left bundle branch block.
Patients with left bundle branch block have an increased risk for the development of heart-failure and death. However, risk factors for unfavorable outcomes are still poorly defined. This study aims to identify echocardiographic parameters and ECG characteristics by machine learning in order to develop individual risk assessment
