NCT01343667
The objective of this study is to provide an ongoing evaluation of clinical outcomes associated with the GORE Flow Reversal System and the GORE Embolic Filter when used for embolic protection during carotid artery stenting.
NCT01954160
Congestive heart failure is a common disorder in which the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the needs of the rest of the body. Poor sodium handling by the kidneys is a damaging effect of heart failure, and it leads to symptoms of congestion such as shortness of breath or ankle swelling. Recent studies suggest that reducing the nerve activity to a kidney could reduce sodium retention and blood pressure. An improvement in the way the kidneys handle sodium may reduce disease progression and decrease symptoms for heart failure patients.
NCT01128166
The goal of the MultiSENSE study is to collect chronic information from multiple sensors in an implanted device for evaluation in heart failure patients.
NCT01065077
A placebo controlled, double-blind and randomized study to assess different doses of a new drug (BAY58-2667) given intravenously, to evaluate if it is safe and can help to improve the well-being of patients with acute decompensated heart failure.
NCT01067859
NCT00997503
The TAXUS Libertē Post-Approval Study is an FDA-mandated prospective, multi-center study designed to collect real-world safety and clinical outcomes in approximately 4,200 patients receiving one or more TAXUS Liberté Paclitaxel-Eluting Stents and prasugrel as part of a dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) drug regimen. This study will also contribute patient data to an FDA-requested and industry-sponsored research study that will evaluate the optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT Study).
NCT00206830
SHORTIE is a two-phase study to determine the impact of the Triage Profiler S.O.B. (Shortness Of Breath) Panel on patient management, outcome, and cost.
NCT01919177
The main objective is to test the hypothesis that inorganic nitrate supplementation will: (1) Improve exercise efficiency and performance; (2) Enhance the systemic vasodilator reserve during exercise and specifically, the vasodilator response in exercising muscle; (3) Reduce arterial wave reflections and arterial load; (4) Improve skeletal muscle mitochondrial function in subjects with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
NCT00094302
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of aldosterone antagonist therapy in reducing cardiovascular mortality, aborted cardiac arrest, and heart failure hospitalization in patients who have heart failure with preserved systolic function.
NCT02026635
A research study to determine if heart failure can be medically managed using data collected from cardiac monitoring devices
NCT01408303
The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of adding Epanova (2 g or 4 g daily) to an optimal statin monotherapy for lowering non-high-density lipoprotein (non-HDL) cholesterol in subjects with persistent hypertriglyceridemia and high risk for cardiovascular disease.
NCT02226133
Exclusion of the LAA(Left Atrial Appendage) using the TigerPaw II System with VATS technique is safe and effective.
NCT00887588
The study will assess the effects of 36 weeks of treatment with LCZ696 compared to valsartan on N-terminal pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) in patients with chronic heart failure and preserved left-ventricular ejection fraction.
NCT02131142
The purpose of this study is to collect additional safety and effectiveness data for on the Biosensors BioFreedom™ BA9 Drug Coated Coronary Stent in patients with native, de novo coronary artery disease.
NCT01478061
The Study plan is a post-market prospective, multi-center, open-label registry. The vein graft failure rates for the currently commercialized C-Port devices will be compared to an a priori rate taken from the peer-reviewed literature.
NCT01605292
Radial artery access for cardiac catheterization can require multiple attempts. Multiple attempts increase the time required, patient discomfort, and the risk of arterial spasm. Ultrasound guidance has been shown in other studies to reduce the number of attempts and complications in central venous and femoral artery access. This study will test if the addition of ultrasound guidance reduces the number of attempts and time required to access the radial artery.
NCT01425359
This study will evaluate the effect of ranolazine compared to placebo on the average weekly angina frequency in subjects with chronic stable angina and coronary artery disease (CAD) who have a history of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and whether ranolazine can reduce the frequency of angina (chest pain) attacks, compared to a placebo. Subjects will be asked to record their daily angina episodes in a diary at the end of each study day. Ranolazine is approved for the treatment of chronic angina, and is not approved for the treatment of T2DM.
NCT01922089
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of initiating LCZ696 in heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction (HF-rEF) using conservative (reaching target dose over 6 weeks) and condensed (reaching target dose over 3 weeks) up-titration regimens.
NCT00661206
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a 6 month duration of clopidogrel therapy after DES implantation is not inferior to that of a 12 month therapy.
NCT01414309
Central sleep apnea (CSA) has been associated with increased mortality and primarily occurs in patients with heart failure (HF). The primary purpose of this study is to document the natural progression of moderate to severe CSA in heart failure patients.
