Filter by:This study is a prospective, multi-center, open label, randomized clinical trial conducted in the republic of Korea. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the treatment using home bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and linked application system in patients with heart failure (HF).
Objectives: 1.- To evaluate the changes in health care and use of services in patients with chronic diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), heart failure and major depression between 2017-2019 and the years 2020-2022, COVID pandemic period, and to see their relationship with clinical outcomes (in terms of mortality, admissions, death, current situation of his disease) and changes in health-related quality of life. 2- To evaluate the health care provided to a cohort of patients diagnosed with SARSCOV-2 (COVID-19 positive) during 2020 based on accessibility, equity and outcomes obtained. 3-To evaluate the evolution of the cohort of patients diagnosed with SARSCOV-2 after two years of follow-up since their diagnosis and create clinical prediction rules for the persistence of symptoms. Methodology. Four cohorts already created in previous projects are included: three of chronic patients, COPD, heart failure, major depression, all of 2017, and for which baseline information is available for follow-up of the health care they received in the 2017-19 period compared to that received during the 2020-22 period and to see the changes in their health-related quality of life from baseline based on generic and specific questionnaires for each of the pathologies included. Another cohort of positive and admitted patients for COVID-19 in 2020 is included, in whom the services received will be evaluated and recorded symptoms persistency that may have had up to two years after their index admission to develop tools for predicting the persistence of symptoms in the medium-long term.
The purpose of this study is to assess the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary effectiveness of implementing a 30-day digitally-enabled community health worker intervention compared to usual care with a community health worker in reducing heart failure 30-day readmissions within a pilot randomized controlled trial.
Infants and children with heart conditions require treatment in children's hospitals that are typically located in large cities. This creates challenges for children and families who need to travel long distances to come to appointments. Providing quality care to children with heart disease has further been challenged by the COVID-19 pandemic, with a shift towards decreased in-person contact and an increase in virtual visits, where assessment by doctors and nurses is more limited. This research study will look at how families of children with heart disease access care and how investigators can improve care with virtual technologies. This will involve testing a new home-based virtual care platform that uses Bluetooth technology to connect weight scales, oxygen measuring devices and blood pressure cuffs with a smartphone app, allowing parents to easily use these devices and send accurate data directly to the cardiology team. Investigators will obtain feedback from families, patients, and healthcare providers about how this helped or did not help them, and adjust the technology as needed to make it better.
Heart Failure (HF) is a complex disease associated with the highest burden of cost to the healthcare system. The cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) is instrumental in determining the prognosis of patients with HF. This study will evaluate whether aggregate biometric data from the Apple Watch combined with demographic, cardiac, and biomarker testing can improve our ability to predict heart failure outcomes among a diverse ambulatory HF population
The purpose of the DAPA-VOLVO trial is to investigate the effects of Dapagliflozin on top of recommended standard therapy on volume status and vascular function in clinically stable de novo or chronic heart failure patients after hospitalization because of an acute decompensated heart failure event.
This is a Phase 1, prospective, multi-center, open-label, sequential dose escalation study to explore the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of a single intracoronary infusion of BNP116.sc-CMV.I1c in patients with NYHA Class III heart failure. Patients with symptomatic congestive heart failure will be enrolled until up to 12 subjects have received infusions of investigational product. All patients will be followed until 12 months post treatment intervention, and then undergo long-term follow-up via semi-structured telephone questionnaires every 6 months for an additional 24 months (+/- 30 days).
In this study, the investigators are testing the accuracy of a wrist-worn measurement device by comparing its blood pressure measurement to arterial line (A-line) blood pressure monitors. The device is similar in style and fit to popular activity bands, but it is unique in that it measures blood pressure.

The aim of this study is to compare the effects of Ivabradine and metoprolol to reduce heart rate prior to coronary CT angiography in patients with advanced heart failure.
