Filter by:This type of study is a randomized controlled trial. The aim is to contribute to the literature by comparing the effects of heart yoga on the depression level, sleep and quality of life of patients who do and do not do heart yoga. The main elements it aims to answer are: - Heart yoga applied to patients who have undergone heart surgery improves their sleep quality compared to those who have not. - Heart yoga applied to patients who have undergone heart surgery reduces the level of depression compared to those who have not. - Heart yoga applied to patients who have undergone heart surgery increases the quality of life compared to those who have not. Patients who accept the study will practice heart yoga simultaneously with heart yoga videos via an online link every other day for 12 weeks after heart surgery. Researchers will compare intervention and control groups to see if there are any effects on sleep quality, depression level, and quality of life.
Introduction: Suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (ST2) is a receptor member belongs to the Interleukin-1 (IL-1) family. The ligand and soluble versions are its two isoforms. The interleukin-33-ST2 ligand complexs development provides protection against heart fibrosis and hypertrophy. Investigations on heart failure in adults has demonstrated that it does not change by age, body mass index (BMI), creatinine, hemoglobin, and albumin levels, in contrast to NT pro brain natriuretric peptit. In adult heart failure patients, it has been demonstrated to be an independent predictor of mortality and cardiovascular events. The most recent guideline recommends using it as class 2b in the diagnosis of adult heart failure. Studies on ST2 in children are rare. The purpose of this study is to assess the prognostic value of ST2 for cardiovascular events in young individuals suffering from heart failure. Method: The study included pediatric patients (0-18 years old) with congenital heart disease or cardiomyopathy who needed medical care as well as surgical or interventional treatment. Height, weight, gender, saturation, heart failure classification (Ross or New York heart Assosiation), medications taken, the electrocardiogram, echocardiography, Pro BNP, and sST2 values of the patients, as well as any hospitalization, lower respiratory tract infection, organ dysfunction, or need for angiography or surgery during follow-up Data on arrhythmia and death were gathered during a 1-year follow-up. The SPSS software application was used to carry out the statistical analysis.
This study evaluated and compared the prognostic value of different Baseline data and clinical variables to develop a risk ractor ediction model in patients with CHD.
A randomized, controlled study including infants with non-cyanosis congenital heart disease (CHD) in need of surgical correction involving cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was established. Infants aged 1 month to 1 years were enrolled between June 2021 and July 2022. The patients in treatment group were supplied with probiotics consisting of Bifidobacterium infantis and Lactobacillus perioperatively and patients in control group were provided with placebo. Data concerning patients' clinical outcome such as diarrhea were collected. Blood samples were collected for measurement of fatty acid binding protein 2 (FABP2), diamine oxidase (DAO), d-lactic acid (D-LA) and C-reactive protein (CRP). Stool samples were collected to investigate the changes of intestinal flora.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the capability of 3 different bedside surrogates in children who underwent cardiac surgery and were admitted in intensive care unit. These test are lactate, oxygen saturation from central venous and the carbon dioxide gap between central venous and arterial. The main questions is which one is the best prognostication for post operation poor outcomes Participants will be taken routine blood test for post cardiac care (at ICU arrival, 6, 12, and 24 hour post operation) and follow the their outcomes. There is no any intervention or drug in this research
Patients in the Intensive Cardiovascular Care Unit (ICCU) often present with cardiovascular disease (CVD) issues accompanied by various non-cardiovascular conditions. However, a widely applicable scoring system to predict patient outcomes in the ICCU is lacking. Therefore, developing and validating scores for predicting ICCU patient outcomes are warranted. The aims of the IndONEsia ICCU (One ICCU) registry include developing an epidemiological registry of ICCU patients and establishing a multicentre research network to analyse patient outcomes.This nationwide multicenter cohort will capture data from patients receiving cardiovascular critical care treatment in 10 Indonesian hospitals with ICCU facilities. Recorded data will encompass demographic characteristics, physical examination findings at hospital and ICCU admission, diagnoses at ICCU admission, therapy, intervention, complications on days 3 and 5 of in-ICCU care, in-hospital outcomes, and 30-day outcomes. The One ICCU is a large, prospective registry describing the care process and advancing clinical knowledge in ICCU patients. It will serve as an investigational platform for predicting the mortality of ICCU patients.
This is a prospective, single-center, non-randomized open label study. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Sync-AV II Temporary Cardiac Pacing Catheter in subjects whose elective surgical or interventional procedure require temporary pacing support.
Percutaneous pulmonary valve revalvulation (PPVR) has emerged as an alternative to surgery for the treatment of congenital heart disease with right ejection pathway dysfunction. The Melody valve (Medtronic Inc., Minneapolis, Minnesota) was the first to be used, validated in 2006 by the European Commission and in 2010 by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Subsequently, the Sapien valve (Edwards SAPIEN pulmonic transcatheter heart valve, Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, California) was subsequently approved for PPVR (Europe, 2010; FDA 2016). Infective endocarditis (IE) after PPVR is currently a major concern with an incidence after Melody PPVR estimated at 3%, much higher than the rate of prosthetic left-heart IE. The Sapien valve has been introduced more recently and some cases of IE have been published. Despite the attention this issue is receiving, there are few studies of sufficient size or statistical power to elucidate the risk factors for developing an IE after PPVR according to the type of valve implanted. Recently, a multicenter study was published by the American team of McElhinney et al (J Am Coll Cardiol 2021 ; 78 :575-589). Although it was a sizeable cohort (2476 patients), there was a large disparity in the ratio of patients who underwent revalvulation with either the Melody or Sapien valve, in favor of Melody patients (2038 Melody patients vs. 438 Sapien patients). In this study, the estimated risk of IE was higher for patients who received a Melody valve, according to univariable analysis but not anymore after multivariate analysis. To further answer this question, we develop an international retrospective multicenter registry whose main objective will be to characterize the incidence rate of infective endocarditis after percutaneous pulmonary revalvulation according to the type of valve implanted (Melody vs. Sapien) using a large population of patients with comparable characteristics (match-population).
The purpose of the study is to implement a multimodal lifestyle intervention over 3 months in individuals ≥ 60 years of age with coronary heart disease and to examine the adherence to this intervention program. The intervention focus on three main themes: physical activity, healthy nutrition and, if necessary, smoking. The framework is formed by a psychological component: views on ageing.
This study was assessed the impact of a web-based education program provided to mothers of infants with congenital heart diseases on their quality of life and self-efficacy levels. The study is a mixed-method approach with a qualitative and pre-test post-test design, utilizing randomized controlled quasiexperimental type. The research was conducted with mothers of infants diagnosed with congenital heart disease who sought care at the Pediatric Cardiology Outpatient Clinic of a university hospital and were followed up. There are two groups in the study. Web-based education was provided to mothers in the intervention group (n=30). No intervention was applied to the mothers in the control group (n=30) other than the outpatient clinic routine of the hospital.
