Filter by:Retrospective, observational cohort study. Objectives: To identify intra hospital mortality risk factors in patients admitted admitted to cardiac intensive care units (CICU). The clinical main endpoint will be the observed percentage of deaths that occured during the year 2017 in french CICU. To identify the length of stay key determiners of patients admitted in french CICU. The study will use data from one of the french nationwide healthcare systems database (SNDS) : the national hospital discharge database (PMSI) to be precise.
In complete transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with previous atrial switch repair, and congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA), the morphological right ventricle and its tricuspid valve continue to support the systemic circulation. This results in late complications including including sudden death. This retrospective multicentric study aims to evaluate the prevalence of SCD in a contemporary population of patients with a systemic RV and identify specific risk factors for SCD and hemodynamically significant ventricular arrhythmia This registry records demographics, clinical, imaging data, electrophysiological and laboratory of patients with a sRV and a transposition of the great arteries Primary end points are defined by sudden cardiac death, near-miss sudden death, as well as sustained VT requiring defibrillation.
Sleep-wake disturbances were found to be a common problem among patients with CHD either earlier during hospitalization or/ and after discharge Although there is an evidence that sleep-wake disturbanes occur in high rate among patients with CHD little was found about assessment and management of this problem. This randomized controlled study will assess sleep quality of stable CHD patients who were admitted for undergoing coronary angiography electively. Then it will test the hypothesis that atlas cedar wood essential oil aromatherapy have a positive effect on sleep quality of CHD patients.
Cardiac steatosis is increased among individuals with HIV, and may predispose to cardiac mechanical dysfunction and subsequent heart failure. The pathogenesis and treatment of cardiac steatosis is not well understood. The investigators have previously shown that perturbed growth hormone (GH) secretion in HIV contributes to ectopic fat accumulation in the viscera and the liver. Moreover, the investigators have found that augmentation of endogenous GH secretion with the FDA-approved medication tesamorelin reduces visceral and hepatic fat. In this longitudinal observational study, the investigators will examine patients with HIV and abdominal fat accumulation who either plan or do not plan to initiate tesamorelin prescribed clinically. The investigators hypothesize that blunted GH secretion in HIV is associated with cardiac steatosis. The investigators also hypothesize that use of tesamorelin for 6 months is associated with a reduction in intramyocardial fat and preserved cardiac function.
The purpose of this study is to determine 1. vaccination coverage of recommended vaccines (routine childhood vaccines and vaccines against seasonal flu and pneumococci) in children with chronic diseases (allergy, cystic fibrosis, diabetes mellitus type 1, congenital heart disease, immunocompromised and solid organ transplant patients) 2. the level of protection against measles, mumps, rubella and pertussis in children with chronic diseases. 3. vaccination coverage of recommended vaccines (diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis and vaccines against seasonal flu and pneumococci) in adults with chronic diseases (nephropathy, diabetes mellitus, COPD, heart failure, HIV and solid organ transplant patients) 4. the level of protection against diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis in adults with chronic diseases.
This clinical study evaluates the safety and efficacy of the treatment with the CoolLoop® cryoablation System (sclerotherapy of muscle tissue of the heart by freezing) in patients with atrial fibrillation (permanent atrial fibrillation excepted) over a follow-up period of 36 months. A further aim of this study is to evaluate the average duration of procedure and fluoroscopy times.
The aim is to evaluate the correlation between the respiratory control to hypercapnia at rest and the VE/VCO2 slope measured during cardiopulmonary exercise testing. The hypothesis is that patient with univentricular congenital heart disease have a increasing of respiratory drive like chronic heart failure. This increasing of respiratory drive could participate in the increasing of VE/VCO2 slope measured during cardiopulmonary exercise testing and in the genese of central apnea index during the sleep.
This study is a prospective, registry trial aimed to compare the clinical and angiographic outcomes of OCT-guided and angiography-guided PCI in patients with coronary DES-ISR.
The study is about exploring physiological angiogenesis linked to tissue repair in patients with acute heart infarction or chronic heart ischemia by means of 68Ga-NODAGA-RGD PET/CT imaging.
This research study will test the effects of macadamia nuts on adiposity, and traditional and emergent risk factors of cardiometabolic disease in adult men and women
