NCT04591392
Evaluation of the safety and efficacy of the reSept ASD Occluder to treat patients with clinically significant secundum atrial septal defect
NCT01864122
The overall objective of this research proposal is to determine whether the predictive value of using plasma concentrations of selected nutrient biomarkers of food intake determined using a single plasma sample either alone or in combination are stronger, objective predictors of subsequent death from coronary heart disease (CHD) or myocardial infarct (MI) compared to selected food intake data derived from subjective, self-reported food frequency questionnaires.
NCT03153137
The primary objective is to assess the effect of macitentan 10 mg as compared to placebo on exercise capacity through cardiopulmonary exercise testing.
NCT03153111
This is a study to evaluate whether macitentan is an effective and safe treatment for patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and pulmonary vascular disease. The primary objective is to evaluate whether macitentan 10 mg reduces N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) as compared to placebo in these patients.
NCT03016754
This study is designed as a multi-center prospective observational study of newly diagnosed Heart Failure (HF) patients to test the hypothesis that additional Ejection Fraction (EF) recovery occurs between 90 and 180 days as Guideline Directed Medical Therapy (GDMT) is achieved. Although the study doesn't start until day 90, all eligible, consenting patients will be entered into a registry at the start of wearable cardioverter defibrillator (WCD) use. The pre-study registry will allow us to collect early (90 day) outcomes and data in those patients who are likely to be eligible for the study at day 90, or are eligible, but refuse the study at day 90.
NCT03988634
The effect of sacubitril/valsartan vs. valsartan on changes in NT-proBNP, safety, and tolerability in HFpEF patients with a WHF event (HFpEF decompensation) who had been stabilized and initiated at the time of or within 30 days post-decompensation.
NCT04089059
This is a prospective, open- label, single arm, multicenter clinical trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Cordella PA Sensor System in NYHA Class III Heart Failure Patients compared to a Performance Goal (PG).
NCT04356027
The purpose of the FUSION study is to validate the diagnostic performance of Virtual Flow Reserve (VFR) by comparing it against a reference standard, fractional flow reserve (FFR).
NCT04799899
The aim of this study is to establish, in a pilot RCT (approx. N=50 participants) with a time- and attention-matched health enhancement control, (a) the feasibility of the recruitment procedures (screening, eligibility, enrollment rates), and feasibility and acceptability of the (b) MBCT and control interventions (adherence, retention, fidelity, satisfaction, group videoconferencing delivery) and (c) data collection procedures by group (adherence, satisfaction). Hypothesis 1a: Recruitment will be feasible as evidenced by screening, eligibility, and enrollment rates; (1b) the MBCT and control interventions and (1c) data collection procedures in both groups will be feasible and acceptable.
NCT04451044
Multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled study comparing PCI guided by angiography versus iFR Co-Registration using commercially available Philips pressure guidewires and the SyncVision co-registration system, employing an adaptive design study for interim sample size re-estimation.
NCT04752657
In the electronic Framingham Heart Study (eFHS), the investigators developed and deployed a mobile app to collect cardiovascular risk factors and event data and test them against cardiovascular data collected in the Framingham research clinic for the FHS. Participants enrolled in eFHS receive a series of digital surveys modules to complete on a regularly occurring schedule. The objective of the planned randomized trial is to test the effect of administering half of survey modules every 2 weeks versus all survey modules every 4 weeks on improving participants' response rates. There will be 4 survey periods. Period 1 encompasses all survey modules administered from baseline up to week 8 (19 surveys/tasks per participant); period 2 from week 8 up to week 16 (18 surveys/tasks per participant); period 3 from week 16 up to week 24; period 4 from week 24 (16 surveys/tasks per participant).
NCT01426425
ICY-AVNRT (Intracardiac CrYoablation for AtrioVentricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia) is a prospective multi-center, nonrandomized, single arm, controlled, unblinded, investigational clinical study. The purpose of this clinical study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Freezor® Xtra Cardiac CryoAblation Catheter for the cryoablation of the conducting tissues of the heart in the treatment of patients with atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) using an endocardial approach.
NCT00853632
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the long term safety and effectiveness of the Carpentier-Edwards® PERIMOUNT Magna Mitral Valves in patients undergoing mitral valve replacement with or without concomitant procedures requiring cardiopulmonary bypass.
NCT05118893
This is an extended follow up study of the original RAFT-AF Study. The RAFT-AF study was a multi-centre randomized controlled trial with a prospective randomized open blinded endpoint trial (PROBE) design. Patients were randomized to either catheter ablation-based rhythm control of AF as compared to rate control of AF
NCT04610892
A Phase IIB Parallel group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of MEDI6570 in Participants with a Prior Myocardial Infarction.
NCT04905290
The purpose of the CSPOT study is to determine the best mode of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) pacing for different populations of CRT patients, comparing traditional biventricular or left ventricular pacing (BiV), conduction system pacing (CSP)-only, and conduction system pacing optimized therapy (CSPOT) also known as a combination of conduction system pacing (CSP) and left ventricular (LV) pacing. Additionally, safety of the system will be assessed.
NCT03427749
Patients will be recruited from those referred to the local site's Diagnostic Imaging Department for SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) ,who have an intermediate to high pre-test likelihood of disease (Diamond-Forrester criteria ≥ 30%) and are clinically indicated to have an MBF study.
NCT05386173
In one of the most severe congenital heart defects, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), the left ventricle is underdeveloped and the prognosis is worse than in most other heart defects. The underdevelopment can occur gradually during fetal growth caused by a narrowing of the aortic valve. At some international centers, such fetuses are treated with a balloon dilation of the narrowed valve, but there is no scientifically sound evidence that this treatment is effective. The aim of this study is: 1/ to evaluate whether balloon dilation during the fetal period of a narrowed aortic valve can reduce the risk of the left ventricle becoming underdeveloped and the baby being born with a so-called univentricular heart (HLHS); 2/ to investigate whether such treatment improves the prognosis for this group of children with a very complex and severe heart defect and 3/ to also describe side effects and risks in fetuses and mothers of the fetal procedure.
NCT05659264
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single and multiple doses at escalating dose levels of mRNA-0184.
NCT05058833
The DIAST-CMD registry (Prognostic Impact of Cardiac Diastolic Function and Coronary Microvascular Function) is prospective registry which enrolled patients who underwent echocardiography, cnically-indicated invasive coronary angiography and comprehensive physiologic assessments including fractional flow reserve (FFR), CFR, and IMR measurements for at least 1 vessel from Samsung Medical Center. Patients with hemodynamic instability, severe LV dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction\<40%), a culprit vessel of acute coronary syndrome, severe valvular stenosis or regurgitation were excluded.
