Filter by:To retrospectively analyze the preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative anesthesia management of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy undergoing TA-BSM in the investigators' hospital, and to provide clinical basis for the development of reasonable and standardized perioperative anesthesia program for these patients.
To investigate clinical characteristics and survival outcomes of patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who underwent concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting during septal myectomy.
To evaluate all full term infants of diabetic mother for the presence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who admitted in NICU at Assiut University Children Hospital and to follow up of these cases after 6 months for recovery.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle that causes the heart to become thicker and this thickness places children at risk of heart rhythm problems, heart failure and sudden death.To decrease the risk of sudden death, health care providers generally counsel that the patient should stop all intense physical activity. While this recommendation may decrease the risk of sudden death it is unclear what the long term impact of reduced physical activity is on cardiovascular health in children with HCM. Cardiovascular (CV) disease is a disease of the heart and blood vessels and is the cause of heart attacks in adults. There are many risk factors for the development of CV disease including genetics, medical conditions and lifestyle choices. While some studies in adults suggest that patients with HCM are at higher risk of poor cardiovascular health, this has not yet been assessed in children. Although, CV disease is generally thought of to be a disease of adults, there is a lot of information that suggests the development of CV disease starts early in life and therefore by promoting heart healthy lifestyles in children, it is possible that these children will becomes healthier adults. The goal of this project is to assess risk factors for CV disease in a population of children with HCM at the two largest pediatric cardiac programs in Canada. This assessment will be to look at factors we can measure (e.g., weight, cholesterol levels) and patients' and families' perceptions of what it means to be heart healthy. It is hoped that through this project risk factors for heart disease, and poor "heart healthy" lifestyles choices, will be identified in order to develop strategies to decrease these risk factors in patients with HCM. With a better understanding of the families' perceptions of heart healthy behaviours, educational tools and resources for cardiovascular health promotion in patients with HCM can be developed.
To explore the feasibility, safety, health and psychological benefits of a 12-week high intensity exercise programme in a young group of individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). This will pave the way for a large-scale randomised study of safety of exercise in HCM, the results of which will strengthen the evidence base for exercise recommendations.
The overall aim of this project is to establish potential benefits of a novel lifestyle (physical activity and dietary nitrate) and pharmacological (angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor) interventions in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). HCM is the most common genetic cardiovascular disease with a broad spectrum of disease severity. Angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor reduces death, hospitalisation, and may improve cardiac function and exercise tolerance in heart failure. Exercise training is associated with a significant increase in exercise tolerance, but appear to have limited effect on measures of cardiac morphology or function in patients with HCM. Dietary supplementation with inorganic nitrate (i.e. concentrated nitrate-rich beetroot juice) improves exercise capacity, vasodilatation and cardiac output reserves while reduces arterial wave reflections, which are linked to left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and remodelling. Using a five-centre, open label, three-arm, pilot design, the present study will evaluate the effect of lifestyle (physical activity and dietary supplementation with inorganic nitrate) and pharmacological (angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor sacubitril / valsartan) interventions in patients with HCM. The Aim is to examine whether these interventions improve functional capacity, clinical phenotypic characteristics, and quality of life in patients with HCM.
Mavacamten is a small-molecule allosteric inhibitor of cardiac myosin that reversibly inhibits its binding to cardiac actin, thereby relieving systolic hypercontractility and improving ventricular compliance. This is an open-label, parallel-group, single-center Phase 1 clinical study. Healthy adult Chinese subjects with different genotypes will be included and administered with a single fasted oral dose of mavacamten to evaluate its PK profile. Up to 44 subjects will be enrolled in this study.
Correlation between Myocardial Deformation and Coronary Tortuosity and Analysis of Genetic Factors Among Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Patients
The QUALIMYORYTHM trial is a multicentre controlled study, aiming to assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of 107 children aged 6 to 18 years old with inherited cardiac arrhythmia (long QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, or arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia), or inherited cardiomyopathies (hypertrophic, dilated, or restrictive cardiomyopathy), and to compare the results to those of 107 age and gender-matched healthy subjects. The secondary objective is to assess, in this population, the HRQoL according to disease characteristics, level of physical activity, exercise capacity, and socio-demographic data. Participants will wear a fitness tracker for 2 weeks.
Use lay language. Current guidelines regarding physical activity in patients with inherited arrhythmia and cardiomyopathy are mostly dedicated to adult patients, with a special focus on sports competition. Their application to the pediatric population has been scarcely evaluated. Physical activity is well known for its health benefits but may be dangerous in this population, which leads to confusion within the medical community and among patients. Actual physical activity of children with such inherited cardiac disorders is unknown. This study aimed to assess the level of physical activity in children with inherited arrhythmia and cardiomyopathy, and the adherence to the current European guidelines on the subject. Secondary objectives aimed to assess through a qualitative analysis the impact of the disease on physical activity and daily life in this population. The level of physical activity and adherence to current guidelines will be determined from interviews between the patient and the principal investigator. Each patient will be questioned in order to explore the experiences, motivations and feelings of participants regarding physical activity. The standardized questionnaire was created by the principal investigator and members of the clinical research team. The investigators believe that many children practice physical activity outside the current guidelines and hope to identify the main determinants of physical activity in this population.
