Filter by:There is existing data in the literature that suggests an additional predictive value of three dimensional ECG with respect to the presence of electrical abnormalities and for an existing cardiac disease. Especially regarding patients who suffered from a myocardial infarction in the past (post MI patients), evidence has been provided for a potential association of 3D repolarisation abnormalities and incidence of sudden cardiac death (SCD). In addition, there is some vague evidence of so called 3D ECG and prediction of coronary artery disease. This 3D ECG device is using the technology of 3D ECG vector loops and is assessing the variability of these ECG vector loops in the 3-dimensional space. Based on these data, the parameters of 3D ECG are suggested to carry certain value to predict or to identify individuals already suffering from a cardiac disease or being at risk experiencing a cardiac event in the future. In this context we performed a preliminary study with 3D-ECG device in healthy volunteers evaluating the robustness of this method with respect to reproducibility, intra- and intra-observer variability which could be confirmed. We thus postulate that the 3D ECG technology might bear the potential to serve as a sufficient screening method for diagnosing cardiomyopathy in patients with an unknown heart failure etiology.
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.
RIKADA is a prospective study performing systematic family screening including clinical and genetic testing in pediatric patients with primary cardiomyopathy and their first-degree relatives with the aim to facilitate risk stratification.
This is a joint project by Sahlgrenska University Hospital: Sahlgrenska, Östra and Mölndal. Our objective is to diagnose and map patients with well phenotyped cardiomyopathies (CMP) including in depth clinical and molecular phenotyping to enable earlier and specific treatment. The project will serve as: 1. resource for diagnostic and therapeutic trials 2. common biomaterial bank 3. resource for detailed molecular analyses on patients' biomaterials and patient specific symptoms and examination results
Long-term prognostic value of macrovascular and microvascular coronary artery stenoses in each type of cardiomyopathy.
This is a multi-omics research of Chinese cardiomyopathies patients, aiming to determine genetic risk factor and serial biomarkers of cardiomyopathies in diagnosis and prognosis.
This study aims to 1)characterize the differentially expressed metabolites between cardiomyopathy patients and healthy controls,2)identify the specific biomarkers associated with outcomes or risk evaluation in patients with different cardiomyopathies in a follow-up of a cohort and 3)to determine whether differentially expressed may affect the pathological process of cardiomyopathies . Standardized protocols will be used for the assessment of medical history and examinations, laboratory biomarkers, and the collection of blood plasma.
The goal of this protocol is to obtain information from individuals with cardiomyopathy and from their families in order to elucidate the molecular genetics of this disorder. This will provide the basis for future genetic counseling as well as contribute to elucidating the biology of normal and abnormal cardiac function.
Cardiomyopathy in children is a serious disease which can result in death, disability, heart transplantation or serious heart rhythm disorders. Doctors know little about the causes of cardiomyopathy but would like to learn more. In fact, up to 50-75% of cases in children have no known cause. For this reason, the purpose of this study is to identify genes that cause cardiomyopathy or that influence how people with cardiomyopathy do over time. These findings could improve disease prevention, surveillance, early management, and prognosis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the genetic basis of cardiomyopathies and heart failure.
