Filter by:This study is a post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF) study to identify and evaluate residual risks associated with the use of the BIOMONITOR III and BIOMONITOR IIIm that are discovered or remain even after risk analysis, risk mitigation and successful conformity assessment. Furthermore, this study will also provide additional data as required by regulatory authorities outside of the CE-region.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of domperidone is associated with an increased risk of serious cardiac events among postpartum women in the six months following delivery. The hypothesis is that the use of domperidone will be associated with an increased risk of serious cardiac events among postpartum women. The investigators will carry out separate population-based cohort studies using health care databases in five Canadian provinces. Women with live births will be eligible to enter the cohort. We will identify all women who start domperidone during the six months following delivery and match them to similar women who do not start domperidone, with all included women followed until the occurrence of an adverse cardiac event or for up to six months after delivery. The results from the separate sites will be combined to provide an overall assessment of the risk of serious cardiac events in users of domperidone.
The main aim is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the iD-System™, One-handed Disposable Internal Defibrillation System The device is made for manual defibrillation during intra-thoracic procedure, by transferring a shock from a defibrillation device to the patient's heart, in combination with the iD-Electrode. The device will be used when the patient reaches a stage of ventricular fibrillation or rapid ventricular tachycardia during cardiac surgery.
The Ripple VT-1 Study is a prospective clinical trial that aims to investigate if catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia in patients with ischaemic heart disease can be effectively performed using Ripple Mapping.
The investigators aim to study whether the Compensatory Reserve Index (CRI) (an FDA approved device that assesses intravascular volume) can be used to evaluate severity of Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and whether the CRI value has a correlation with severity of psychosocial symptoms and functional impairment associated with POTS.
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is one of the major causes of mortality in adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD). Risk stratification for sudden cardiac death in this patient group is challenging and at the current moment there are no clear guidelines on implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) implantation for primary prevention of SCD in this young patient population. The reason for this is the fact that this is a heterogenous group of patients and SCD is a relatively rare event. Because of this there have been no prospective studies on SCD in ACHD. However, multiple retrospective studies on ICD implantation in ACHD have shown that this treatment does appear to be effective. Researchers from the Academic Medical Center have identified several risk factors for sudden cardiac death. A risk score was created using this data, which has been validated in an internal and external cohort in a retrospective setting. The design of this study, including the conception of the risk score, its calculation method and validation will be published in an international scientific peer-reviewed journal. The hypothesis of this study is that the risk score accurately predicts the risk of sudden cardiac death.
Postural orthostatic tachycardia (POTS) is characterized by abnormalities in the autonomic nervous system in the body. The autonomic nervous system controls and regulates body functions such as heart rate, breathing, digestion, and more. The investigator has shown that patients with POTS have higher cardiovascular and adrenergic activating autoantibodies (AAb), which likely changes the normal make-up of POTS. There are autoantibodies that have been suggested by a few reports of their presence in POTS, but their role different aspects of POTS is unknown. The study will look at the body's responses in patients with POTS. The crossover study design is to have half of the patients will start with sham followed by active stimulation and half will start by active followed by sham stimulation. It is anticipated that results will provide a potential therapeutic approach based on the understanding of POTS.
The objective of this study is to determine the effect of music therapy during dialysis on: depression, anxiety, quality of life, blood pressure, heart rate, medication compliance, compliance with dialysis treatment, number of hospitalizations, pain level, and energy level.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the symptomatic benefits of immunomodulatory treatment with IVIG for POTS (postural tachycardia syndrome) patients with evidence of autoimmunity.
Post-Market Clinical Follow-up of the new Cor Family ICDs/CRT-Ds (Acticor, Rivacor) and the new Plexa ProMRI S DX right ventricular lead to provide post-market data and supporting evidence for the clinical safety and performance of the devices.
