Filter by:This open-label extension study will evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy of orally inhaled seralutinib in subjects who have completed a previous seralutinib study
The purpose of this study is collect subject vitals with a blood pressure cuff, electrocardiogram (ECG), and photoplethysmogram (PPG). This data can then be used to develop a reliable, accurate, noninvasive, and continuous blood pressure monitoring device.
A randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, two-arm, multiple dose, multicenter, clinical endpoint bioequivalence study
Decompensation of cirrhosis is a turning point in cirrhosis course, as associated with a marked decrease in life expectancy. Thus, prevention of decompensation is crucial. The usefulness of carvedilol to prevent decompensation of cirrhosis in patients with TE-LSM ≥ 25 kPa as a surrogate marker for clinically significant portal hypertension, has never been evaluated in a clinical trial.
This is a multi-centre, observational, ambispective study, which will retrospectively and prospectively collect clinical and socio-demographic data from medical records of outpatients with arterial hypertension (HTN) initiated with the amlodipine/indapamide/perindopril SPC in real clinical settings. 375 patients to be included in the study in order for at least 300 patients to complete the study and provide an estimated 90% power of the study. 75 outpatient general practitioners and cardiologists will participate in this study.
Background. Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a heterogeneous pathophysiological condition characterized by progressive pulmonary vascular narrowing that ultimately results in right-sided heart failure and eventually death or lung transplantation. The effectiveness of current pharmacological treatments is suboptimal and a large proportion of patients still had events or died despite receiving combination therapy. Vitamin D deficiency has been found to be much more frequent in PAH patients than in the general population or even compared to patients with other severe cardiovascular diseases. Moreover, vitamin D deficiency has a negative prognostic impact in PAH. Animal studies support that vitamin D deficiency worsens PAH. Hypothesis. In patients with PAH and vitamin D deficiency, restoration of vitamin D status with calcifediol improves their symptomatology and prognosis. Design: Multicenter clinical trial with the participation of 9 hospitals, placebo-controlled, randomized (1:1 ratio), in two parallel groups (without crossover), triple blind, and add-on on existing treatments (add-on). It will include at least 102 subjects (51 in the calcifediol group and 51 in the placebo group) followed for 24 weeks of treatment. Inclusion criteria: Patients of both sexes (18-75 years) with hemodynamic diagnosis of PAH and severe vitamin D deficiency (25-OHvitD <= 12 ng/ml) and without previous diagnosis of osteoporosis or osteomalacia. Treatments: 1) Calcifediol Hydroferol® 0.266 mg once every 10 days for the first 12 weeks and once every two weeks for the following 12 weeks. 2) Placebo. Main objective: A composite endpoint of clinical improvement without clinical worsening at week 24. Expected outcome: Restoration of vitamin D status is an unexpensive measure, very easily implantable and that could improve the evolution of the disease as well as other aspects such as bone or immune health and that has few side effects.
Open-label pilot study of early inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) for patients developing de novo pulmonary hypertension during Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS.) The study aims to determine whether iNO has possible hemodynamic and clinical benefits when given early in the course of ARDS to patients with evidence of elevated pulmonary artery pressure.
The goal of this observational study is to compare in healthy pregnant women during the first trimester. The main question it aims to answer are: Accuracy of measuring automatically Blood Pressure (BP) at appointment compared to 24 Hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitor (ABPM). Participants will be BP measured with homologated device every 3 minutes in waiting room for 20 minutes. Researchers will compare Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP) and Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) in clinical visit to see if are comparable to ABPM.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the molecular pathways associated with the benefit of a regular exercise program in patients with high blood pressure and who don't already participate in regular exercise. The main question it aims to answer is to identify protein signatures associated with the benefits of a cardiac rehabilitation exercise program. The trial will enroll 42 participants, who will be randomized to a 12 week cardiac rehabilitation exercise program versus control arm and asked to participate in the following at the beginning and end of study: - Cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) - Echocardiogram - Physical function test - 6-minute walk test - Hand grip strength - Quality of life questionnaire - Blood draws Researchers will compare results between those who do and don't participate in the exercise program.
The overall goal of this project is to determine if measuring blood pressure at home and staying in contact with a team of pharmacists and physicians to manage your blood pressure is feasible. The study will enroll 24 participants at UAB. Half of the participants (12 patients) will be asked to measure their blood pressure at home, and half of the participants (12 patients) will continue to receive usual care. Participants who measure their blood pressure at home will also meet with a pharmacist weekly over the phone to discuss blood pressure readings and have blood pressure medications prescribed if needed. This program will last 3 months.
