Filter by:The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of intramyocardial injection of human induce pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (HiCM-188) during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery in patients with severe chronic ischemic heart failure.
Due to the steady increase in the burden of HFpEF, especially in women, it is an important task to search for new markers and early predictors associated with the development of this disease. Nowadays, the relationship of adverse pregnancy factors with the development of long-term cardiac pathology, in particular, HFpEF, has not been completely established. One of the most significant issue is studying the younger phenotype of women. The goal of this observational analytical cross-sectional study is to study the relationship of heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction in middle-aged women with adverse pregnancy outcomes in the history of pregnancy. Research question: is there an association between adverse pregnancy factors and the development of HF in middle-aged women? Objectives 1. To assess the frequency of detection of APOs in the history of pregnancy in middle-aged women, depending on the presence or absence of HFpEF. 2. To compare clinical and anamnestic data, morphological and functional parameters of the heart in middle-aged women with the presence and absence of HFpEF. 3. To establish an association between APOs and the development of HFpEF in the long-term period in middle-aged women. 4. To identify mediators between the presence of APOs and the development of HFpEF in middle-aged women. Study population - 45-60 year-old women with the history of pregnancy (>20 weeks) in the absence of low left ventricle ejection fraction (<50%) Primary endpoint: The prevalence of HFpEF in patients with the history of APOs.
This is a monocentric cohort study conducted in the cardiology department of Nancy hospital. The main purpose of the study is to document the global management strategy of patients hospitalized for heart failure and evaluate the association between patient's care and post-hospitalization outcome.
A multicenter observational retrospective-prospective study of prevalence and clinical characteristics of transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) cardiomyopathy (CM) in Russian patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) in real clinical practice. The retrospective phase will entail secondary data collection from electronic or paper medical records of patients who are participating/participated in the PRIORITY-CHF study and have HFpEF. Those patients who have a high suspicion of having ATTR-CM and provided informed consent will be invited to participate in the prospective phase. The prospective phase will consist of three visits, during which a routine comprehensive cardiologic evaluation in order to confirm or exclude ATTR-CM diagnosis will be performed. In patients with confirmed ATTR-CM the material for genetic testing will be collected in order to specify the type of ATTR-amyloidosis
The study team is studying how increasing dietary fiber, specifically through adding potato starch to participant's diet, may impact the species of bacteria in participant's gut microbiome. The study team also wants to understand if adding potato starch to participant's diet helps these bacteria make more short chain fatty acids, a byproduct the team thinks may benefit participant's health.
Heart failure (HF) is a global, public health issue that affects more than 63 million people worldwide; this burden is expected to increase substantially as the population ages. Despite advancements in treatment, a HF diagnosis still leads to significant morbidity and mortality; there is also an immense impact on patients' health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Dapagliflozin was recently granted approval for heart failure by the European Commission, regardless of ejection fraction and whether the patient has diabetes. Real-world observational data are necessary to describe dapagliflozin use in real-world settings in order to assess treatment patterns, HF symptoms and their impact on physical limitation, HRQoL and work productivity, as well as health care utilization of patients treated with dapagliflozin in this setting under local treatment standard conditions in Germany.
Primary Objective To investigate if patients hospitalised for older adults with a decreased level of physical function, either related to a chronic condition e.g., COPD, Congestive heart failure, renal failure; infections; frailty and tendency of falling; orthopaedic surgery - after hip fracture will increase their time spent out of bed during hospitalisation and 3 months after discharge through visual feedback and motivational intervention about physical activities from a new mobile technology. Hypothesis Patients hospitalised for medical disease will increase their physical activity level during hospitalisation and 3 months after discharge through visual feedback and motivational intervention from a new mobile technology.
The purpose of this study is to find out if there are any patterns in the way people's bodies react to physical activities and their voices when they have heart failure, a disease where the heart cannot function sufficiently. To do this, the investigators will use a smartwatch that can measure multiple signals like the participant's heart rate and movement. Investigators will ask participants with and without heart failure to wear the Watch HOP (from HOP-Child Technologies Inc.) and sensors during physical tasks at their clinic visit at the McGill University Health Centre. Researchers will also record the participants' voices between their visits. The key signals can help find who is at risk for heart failure or develop new ways to monitor and treat it.
This is an investigator-initiated, single-center, single-arm prospective study to compare non-invasive hemodynamic assessment using transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and lung ultrasound (LUS) and hemodynamic assessment using PAC. Patients who have been hemodynamically assessed using PAC will be invited to participate. Each patient will undergo TTE and LUS immediately after first invasive assessment, and again daily after PAC assessments.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the clinical characteristics of patients undergoing permanent cardiac pacing and to compare procedural efficacy and safety of different implantation approaches in the clinical practice of the participating centres. The contribution of non-fluoroscopic anatomical and electrophysiological reconstruction systems to device implantation procedures will also be evaluated. Participants [patients over 18 years old with an indication to receive a definitive pacemaker/intracardiac defibrillator implant] will receive a permanent cardiac pacing implant as requested according to European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines; the investigators will evaluate procedural efficacy and safety of different implantation approaches.
