Filter by:To better understand the reasons for underutilization of defibrillator therapy in selected populations, the investigators propose a study to assess heart failure patient knowledge and attitudes toward device therapy. By carefully studying populations of patients with systolic heart failure, the investigators aim to identify the underlying reasons for implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) non-utilization in patients with symptomatic systolic heart failure.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind , placebo parallel controlled, standard therapy based phase III clinical trial, to evaluate the efficacy of recombinant human neuregulin-1 on cardiac remodeling, as well as safety in patients with chronic heart failure.
The purpose of this study is to (a) characterize the current management of patients with systolic heart failure (HF) in South Asia following an educational intervention of current guidelines and delivery of disease management tools and (b) to characterize the effect of current therapy on clinical outcomes in patients managed by tertiary care centers across South Asia. Current therapy includes characterization of the post market performance of any market released Medtronic cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) or cardiac resynchronization therapy plus implantable cardiac defibrillator (CRT-D) system for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).
The purpose of this study is to survey the guideline compliance of the cardiologists in the treatment of systolic heart failure in Korea
The primary objectives of this feasibility study are to determine the safety of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) as a therapy in patients with systolic heart failure and to gather observational information for potential efficacy markers
The purpose of this study is to determine if heart failure subjects whose treatment is assisted by home BNP measurements integrated into a home health management system will have better clinical outcomes than subjects whose treatment includes home health management without BNP or than subjects treated by standard care.
The investigators sought to evaluate the feasibility and safety of surgical sympathetic blockade in systolic heart failure patients and secondary to assess its cardiovascular consequences.
Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Recombinant Human Neuregulin-1 for Subcutaneous Administration in Patients With Chronic Systolic Heart Failure
The purpose of this study is to determine whether hair cortisol and testosterone levels correlate with heart failure status in patient with chronic congestive heart failure.
Despite the dramatic effect of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) on survival and morbidity in people with congestive heart failure, 50-70% of eligible patients do not respond to this intervention. There is retrospective evidence that placement of the left ventricular (LV) lead at the region of latest mechanical delay markedly improves response to CRT. However, there is no feasible way to gauge dyssynchrony at LV lead sites during CRT implantation. Impedance recordings from pacing lead tips allow for real-time assessment of mechanical motion and may represent a useful intraoperative tool to guide optimum placement of the LV lead during CRT implantation. This pilot trial will assess the use of intraoperative impedograms in humans to measure regional dyssynchrony at potential LV lead locations during CRT implantation.
