This study is designed as a repository study to collect resting cardiac phase signals and subject meta data from eligible subjects using the Phase Signal Recorder (PSR) prior to Right Heart Cath (RHC). The repository data will be used for the purposes of research, development, optimization and testing of machine-learning algorithms developed by CorVista Health (formerly Analytics 4 Life).
NCT06375694
Nitric Oxide (NO) is an important molecule that is produced naturally in the body and that helps maintain healthy blood flow. Low availability of NO contributes to many diseases while administration of NO is therapeutic. In addition to being made naturally in the body, NO can be obtained through the diet via the Nitrate-Nitrite-NO cycle. Nitrate, which is abundant in green leafy vegetables and beetroot juice, is partially converted to nitrite by oral bacteria. The nitrate and nitrite are taken up into the blood and nitrite is converted into NO. Remaining nitrate in the blood is taken back up into the mouth by salivary glands and the cycle continues. Emerging studies suggest that the Nitrate-Nitrite-NO cycle may contribute to cardiovascular health. In addition, there have been many studies where dietary nitrate is given to increase NO and treat various conditions. The current study rests on the premise that the quality of the oral microbiome plays a major role in the Nitrate-Nitrite-NO cycle and hence cardiovascular health and the efficacy of dietary nitrate interventions. Investigators have begun to identify oral bacterial species that are effective nitrite producers as well as though that are nitrite depleters (those that interfere with nitrite production from nitrate). In laboratory experiments, certain bacterial species have been shown to block nitrate to nitrite conversion by other oral bacteria. These nitrite depleting species are found in a commercially available oral probiotic designed to improve oral health. The purpose of this study is to examine if use of the probiotic negatively affects the Nitrate-Nitrite-NO cycle. Nitrate to Nitrite conversion will be assessed by measuring plasma levels of nitrite before and after consumption of nitrate-rich beetroot juice. Dietary nitrate to plasma nitrite conversion will assessed at baseline and after one week of consumption of the probiotic or a placebo (follow-up). The primary hypothesis of this study is that participants that consume the probiotic will have lower nitrate to nitrite conversion at follow-up compared to baseline and that there will be no significant change in nitrate to nitrite conversion between baseline and follow-up for participants who consume the placebo. While this study does not aim to treat any specific disease, it is intended to elucidate a basic physiological function that may be relevant to cardiovascular health and certain NO-based therapeutics.
NCT04381260
Rural Americans are more likely to be unhealthy, older, living in poverty, uninsured, and medically underserved. The CDC has made achieving health equity and improving cardiovascular health for rural Americans one of their Healthy People 2020 overarching goals. ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) is a life-threatening cardiovascular emergency that frequently affects people without warning within the communities the Participants live and work. Patients with STEMI have a linear relationship between first medical contact to Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) time and mortality. Delays are particularly important in STEMI patients with cardiogenic shock, who experience an excess 3.3 deaths per 100 for every 10 minute delay to PCI (for PCI times between 60-180 minutes). Delayed PCI is also associated with a higher rate of long term morbidity, including congestive heart failure and repeat MI. Unfortunately, many rural EMS agencies fail to consistently achieve the recommended 90 minute PCI time goal. Rural agencies are less likely than urban/suburban agencies to meet time goals and this disparity exposes rural patients to excess morbidity and mortality. The American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) endorse the need for prehospital strategies to reduce total ischemic time, particularly in rural settings.
NCT03507777
The objective of this prospective, single-blind clinical investigation is to demonstrate the superiority of an Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)-guided stent implantation strategy as compared to an angiography-guided stent implantation strategy in achieving larger post-PCI lumen dimensions and improving clinical cardiovascular outcomes in patients with high-risk clinical characteristics and/or with high-risk angiographic lesions.
NCT03860935
Phase 3 efficacy and safety study to evaluate acoramidis (AG10) HCl 800 mg administered orally twice a day compared to placebo in subjects with symptomatic Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM).
NCT03247829
This observational post market study is intended to characterize hemodynamic-guided management of patients with an existing left ventricular assist device (LVAD) to protocol specified target ranges and its impact on functional status, quality of life, and readmissions
NCT03237858
The MANAGE-HF study is a multi-center, global, prospective, open label, multi-phase trial intended to evaluate the clinical efficacy of the HeartLogic heart failure diagnostic feature.
NCT04125732
The primary purpose of this trial is to determine the safety of XC001 (AdVEGFXC1) in patients who suffer from angina caused by coronary artery disease and have no other treatment options. Subjects in this study will receive one of four intramyocardial doses of XC001 that expresses human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) which induces therapeutic angiogenesis (revascularization).
NCT06425848
The purpose of the HF2 (Hemodynamic Frontiers in Heart Failure) registry is to collect relevant patient-level demographic, clinical, laboratory, and hemodynamic data from patients implanted with pulmonary artery pressure sensor at participating centers to advance scientific knowledge about ambulatory hemodynamics monitoring and HF (Heart Failure) therapies. The data collected will be used for retrospective studies, quality improvement, identifying research cohorts, and member-initiated research.
NCT06018194
The goal of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of a novel plaque-based coronary CT angiography (CCTA) fractional flow reserve (FFRct) software device for the estimation of invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR). Researchers will compare the Elucid plaque-based FFRct analysis to invasively measured FFR in patients who have previously undergone CCTA and invasively assessed FFR.
NCT04702373
This is a Phase III randomized controlled trial of a passive ROM exercise program that will be performed in infants with HLHS and other single right ventricle anomalies following the Norwood procedure at PHN and Auxiliary Centers.
NCT04090697
The primary aim of this study is to determine if clinically relevant doses of buccally administered oxandrolone are safe and tolerable in neonates with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) or other single right ventricular anomalies who have undergone a Norwood procedure. The secondary aim is to evaluate the efficacy of buccally administered oxandrolone in improving objective indices of growth and nutrition in neonates who have undergone a Norwood procedure.
NCT04191330
The goal of this real-world, multi-center, randomized, outpatient study is to assess the effectiveness of the Biofourmis cloud based BiovitalsHF platform to recommend optimal titration of Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy (GDMT) for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) subjects.
NCT03674307
The Canadian Australasian Randomized Trial of Screening Kidney Transplant Candidates for Coronary Artery Disease (CARSK) will test the hypothesis that eliminating the regular use of non-invasive screening tests for CAD AFTER waitlist activation is not inferior to regular (i.e., annual) screening for CAD during wait-listing for the prevention of Major Adverse Cardiac Events. Secondary analyses will assess the impact of screening on the rate of transplantation, and the relative cost-effectiveness of screening.
NCT04249778
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of dapagliflozin treatment in preventing hospital re-admissions, emergency room (ER) visits, urgent clinic visits, and death in patients with and without type 2 diabetes (T2D) after hospital admission for heart failure.
