Filter by:COLUMBIA CARDS is a pilot study to understand how COVID-19 affects the heart. It is known that COVID-19 can affect the heart in different ways. COLUMBIA CARDS is studying why some COVID-19 survivors develop clinical conditions such as heart inflammation, fluid buildup, blood clots, and other cardiac problems during or after their COVID-19 illness, and why other ones do not. In this study, we will use cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) to better understand the impact of COVID-19 on the heart.
This is a randomized, prospective, single-blinded trial to determine the overall rate of successful His-Purkinje conduction system pacing Optimized Trial of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (HOT-CRT) versus biventricular pacing using coronary sinus lead (BVP) to compare acute and mid-term outcomes. Acute outcomes include change in QRS duration pre-and post-pacing (degree of QRS narrowing) and incidence of major periprocedural complications (pericardial tamponade, need for lead revision, etc.). Mid-term outcomes include echocardiographic response at 6 months along with a composite clinical outcome of heart failure hospitalization, ventricular arrhythmias, crossover, and all-cause mortality.
Cardiac dysfunction has been reported to be common in patients infected with COVID-19. The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical importance of cardiac dysfunction in critically ill patients infected with COVID-19.
The purpose of this research is to prospectively test and validate the single-lead Low EF algorithm in outpatients in order to test the performance of a single-lead ECG based algorithm to identify people with decreased left ventricular EF.
This prospective study evaluates the mechanisms of benefit of sacubitril/valsartan in a population of outpatients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, to investigate the relationship between the effects on left ventricular ejection fraction and volumes and noninvasively hemodynamic echo-derived parameters, as cardiac output and left ventricular filling pressure.
The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been declared a public health emergency of international concern. Hospitalized COVID-19-positive patients requiring ICU care is increasing along with the course of epidemic. A large number of these patients developed acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) according to current data. However, the related hemodynamic characteristic has so far been rarely described.
Left ventricular dysfunction is common in the critically ill. The aim of this study is to assess the incidence and prognosis of left ventricular dysfunction in critically ill patients.
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) can cause transient myocardial dysfunction. Recently, it have been reported that myocardial dysfunctions that occur in SAH are associated with poor outcomes. It therefore appears essential to detect theses dysfunctions with the higher sensitivity as possible. Strain measurement using speckle-tracking echocardiography may detect myocardial dysfunction with great sensitivity. The main objective of this study is to assess the prevalence of myocardial dysfunction in "non-severe" SAH (defined by a WFNS grade 1 or 2), using speckle-tracking echocardiography. This study also aims to analyse Strain measurement with classical echocardiography and serum markers (troponin, BNP) of cardiac dysfunction.
The aim is to provide evidence of the long-term benefits of personalised pacemaker programming on heart function and battery longevity. This will be achieved by showing in a single centre, phase II, double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial that reducing the amount of pacemaker beats to a minimum reverses these changes and extends battery life.
This post-market study is a prospective observational study evaluating the efficacy and safety of the LifeVest in real-life settings.
