Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if different types of heart rate control work to improve the clinical outcomes of patients with atrial fibrillation related to rheumatic mitral stenosis in terms of reducing hospitalizations, improving quality of life, and enhancing physical functional capacities. The two types of heart rate (HR) control are strict (resting HR of 60-80 bpm) versus lenient (resting HR of 81-110 bpm) rate control strategies. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can lenient versus strict heart rate control reduce rehospitalization in patients with atrial fibrillation and rheumatic mitral stenosis? - Does lenient versus strict heart rate control improve the quality of life (QoL) in patients with atrial fibrillation and rheumatic mitral stenosis? - Does lenient versus strict heart rate control enhance functional capacity in patients with atrial fibrillation and rheumatic mitral stenosis? Researchers will compare strict rate control to lenient rate control to see if a particular rate control strategy is non-inferior to the other. Participants will: - Take standardized drugs as per PERKI (Indonesian Heart Association) guidelines for Atrial Fibrillation, which would be either beta-blockers, digoxin, or in combination. This standardized treatment of Atrial Fibrillation will be monitored once every month to see if the dose needs to be titrated in order to reach targeted heart rate control. - After the target of HR control is reached, the participant will be followed up every two weeks via telephone to check for any signs and symptoms. - Furthermore, after the HR target is reached, the participant will visit the cardiology outpatient clinics once every month for 3 consecutive months to see the clinical outcomes of hospitalization, QoL via SF-36 questionnaire, and functional capacities with 6MWT (6-minute walk test). - Additionally, the cardiac function would be evaluated by echocardiography at the baseline (time of enrollment) and at the end of the follow up period.
This study aims to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of multiple and mixed valvular heart disease (MMVD), which includes combinations of stenotic or regurgitant lesions on cardiac valves. The research will be conducted as a multicenter observational study, involving several centers worldwide, and will have a one-year follow-up period (with a possible extension to 5 years). The primary aim is to determine the proportion of MMVD among patients evaluated for valvular heart disease. Secondary aims include the evaluation of the epidemiologic distribution of clinical, biological, and cardiovascular imaging characteristics at baseline, management strategies, and their impact on prognosis. The study will also evaluate clinical outcomes such as mortality, hospitalization for heart failure, and changes in echocardiographic parameters. This research aims to provide valuable insights into the diagnosis, management, and prognosis of MMVD, addressing an important knowledge gap in this area.
Mitral valve disease is the most common structure heart disease, and surgical valve replacement is an important treatment for severe mitral valve disease. There are 2 types of valve often been used, mechanical or biological protheses valves. Mechanical valve requires lifelong use of anticoagulants and take the risk of bleeding through all lifetime, but bioprotheses valve do not..
Collect data on the safety and clinical performance of the Braile Biomédica® Bovine Pericardium Valvular Bioprosthesis
In recent years increasing number of mitral bioprosthesis implantation, especially in elderly population, is observed. Bioprosthetic valves are associated with a lower risk of thrombotic and bleeding adverse events compared with mechanical prostheses, but their use is limited due to their durability. After years numerous patients may develop bioprosthesis failure, requiring valve reintervention. Significantly burdened ones are oftentimes disqualified or not referred to surgery redo. An emerging treatment method for these patients is transcatheter mitral valve-in-valve implantation as an alternative to re-operation. This technique is applied with the use of devices previously dedicated to transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Recent papers prove that transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) is a safe and effective procedure when performed in a selected group of high-surgical-risk patients. However, data regarding the Polish population are limited. Therefore, the aim of the study is to create a nationwide registry, collecting data from all Polish centers performing TMVR in order to describe the population of patients developing mitral bioprosthesis failure, evaluate their follow-up after TMVR as well as results of the transcatheter valvular intervention and identify potential limitations of the procedure.
This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of the edoxaban and the warfarin in atrial fibrillation patients with mitral stenosis. The study design is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, investigator initiated phase 2 trial. The patients were randomly assigned to Edoxaban or Warfarin groups. Primary outcome was a composite of stroke and systemic arterial thromboembolism. The safety outcome was major bleeding.
Consecutive patients with severe mitral stenosis and clot in left atrial appendage (LAA) on transesophageal echocardiography fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be recruited for this study. An ACUSON 128-XP echocardiographic system equipped with omniplane and biplane transesophageal probes will be used for this study. TEE followed by CT Angiography will be performed according to the standard procedure after obtaining informed consent.
Prospective, single-center observational registry including all consecutive patients treated with transcatheter mitral or tricuspid valve therapy at the Deutsches Herzzentrum München, Germany.
A randomized 12-month trial will include two groups of 100 individuals aged over 50 years, with asymptomatic mild to moderate Aortic valve stenosis (AVA > 1 cm2, Vmax < 4 m/s). The first group of 100 individuals will serve as the intervention group that will receive 300 mcg of K2 vitamin on a daily basis, while the second group of 100 individuals will be the control group that will receive placebo on a daily basis as well. Both groups will be monitored identically in order to investigate therapeutic effects on calcification and valve stenosis progression. Correlation with Mitral annulus and ascending Aorta.Exclusion criteria: Chronic Kidney disease, Vitamin K antagonists, statins, age < 50 y.o,prosthetic valves,Aortic Valve area (AVA) < 1cm2 ,Vmax > 4 m/s
A prospective multicenter study enrolling high surgical risk patients with severe mitral annular calcification (MAC) and symptomatic mitral valve dysfunction (severe stenosis, ≥ moderate to severe regurgitation, or mixed ≥ moderate stenosis and ≥ regurgitation). There are 2 Arms in this study: 1) "Transseptal (TS) Valve-in-MAC" (ViMAC) Arm, and 2) Natural History of Disease Registry (NHDR) for patients treated with medical treatment only (which includes patients who meet inclusion criteria but can't be treated with transeptal ViMAC due to the presence of anatomical exclusion criteria or other exclusion criteria) and have not had other procedures that may impact outcomes (i.e., alcohol septal ablation or radiofrequency ablation). The study also includes a Registry of Permanently Unassigned" for subjects who undergo preemptive septal ablation procedures (alcohol or radiofrequency) in anticipation of continuing onto ViMAC arm, but are not accepted in the ViMAC Study arm or the patient chooses not to undergo ViMAC procedure.
