Filter by:The proposed clinical study aims to validate the effectiveness of the WPM04 blood pressure monitor developed by Withings as a diagnostic tool for cardiovascular disorders. The detection of cardiovascular disorders is oriented along three axes, namely the measurement of blood pressure, the identification of rhythm disorders such as atrial fibrillation and the identification of heart murmur indicating valvular heart disease.
This study evaluates Different effects of two anesthetic techniques on renal function during the perioperative period of cardiac surgery in children.
A retrospective cohort study was performed in patients with angina pectoris who were treated with oral Chinese patent medicine and Western medicine.The hospital's medical record management system was used to collect symptoms of angina pectoris, dose and frequency of nitroglycerin use, clinical biochemical test and imaging examination.To explore the clinical efficacy of Chinese patent medicine in the treatment of coronary heart disease with angina pectoris, and provide reliable data support for its clinical application.
The purpose of this study is to determine if enhanced endothelial arterial distensibility observed with heat therapy translates into improved cardiorespiratory fitness. The following aims are proposed: Aim 1: to determine if chronic heat therapy results in improvements in cardiovascular function. Aim 2: To examine potential mechanism(s) of action of heat therapy in cardiovascular function.
A prospective cohort study was performed in patients with angina pectoris who were treated with oral Chinese patent medicine and Western medicine.Collect primary and secondary efficacy indicators such as the incidence of cardiovascular events, using clinical samples to detect genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, intestinal flora and sclerotia.To explore the clinical efficacy of Chinese patent medicine in the treatment of coronary heart disease with angina pectoris, and provide reliable data support for its clinical application.
Participants aged 80 years or over, who attend Castle Hill Hospital with either stable angina or an acute coronary syndrome will be invited to participate in the study. After induction into the study, these participants will be assessed for frailty and quality of life (QoL) using predetermined assessment tools. Quality of life (QoL) will be assessed using the standardised SF-12 questionnaire proforma. Frailty assessment will be based on the use of the Fried Frailty Phenotype criteria and the Edmonton Frailty Scale. Patients will be reassessed at 3,9 and 24 months for their clinical outcomes, repeat frailty assessment and quality of life.
Background: PDA is viewed as a standout amongst the most widely recognized congenital heart defects in children and its closure is responsible for many hemodynamic changes that require intervention and care. Methods: A retrospective study included fifty children with isolated PDA treated by surgical ligation from June 2015 to June 2018. Their mean age was 15.78 ± 7.58 months and 72% were females. The LV dimensions and systolic function were assessed by two-dimensional echocardiography pre PDA ligation. The mean duct size was 4.08 ± 1.25 mm.
The expected outcome of better and improved patency of bypass grafts and its direct relation to pre-operative iFR measurements of stenosis as compared to direct visual physiology of stenosis in the coronary angiogram. To establish the correlation between the use of intracoronary physiology and improved graft patency at 12 months for patients undergoing CABG surgery. It is a minimum of 28 and a maximum of 100 patients single-centre proof or concept/ observational study/ pilot study.
Treatment of ischemic myocardium has been the subject of intense research in recent years and stem cell therapy is one of the great promises. The InCor laboratory has studied cells from different backgrounds as candidates for cell therapy in the context of myocardial infarction. Evidence in preclinical studies of the application of stromal (mesenchymal) adipose tissue (hASC) in the ischemic heart by both the InCor group (in the animal model in rodents and pigs) and others in the literature suggest relevant benefits on the decrease of deterioration post-infarction. More recently it has been demonstrated that it arises mainly from the formation of new vessels due to paracrine factors, which are secreted by the injected cells. There are currently no studies in Brazil in which the safety of injecting different doses of hASC cells into the heart has been particularly evaluated. Recently, two studies have demonstrated the clinical applicability of hASC in patients with peripheral ischemic disease and stroke. Thus, the objective of this work will be to test the hypothesis that the implantation of autologous stromal cells derived from adipose tissue combined with myocardial revascularization surgery in patients with coronary artery disease
This is a multi-center pilot study to examine the effectiveness of a health literacy-based intervention to improve medication adherence and self-efficacy of medication use among individuals with coronary heart disease (CHD). The specific aims are to: i) develop a health literacy-based intervention to improve medication adherence for CHD individuals with low health literacy and ii) evaluate the effects of a health literacy-based intervention on improving medication adherence and self-efficacy in CHD individuals.
