NCT02839382
The purpose of this project is to build capacity for quality improvement (QI) in small primary care practices across Washington, Oregon and Idaho by improving risk factors for heart attacks such as blood pressure, cholesterol and smoking. The Northwest Coalition for Primary Care Practice Support will assist practices by providing them with a QI coach, creating group learning opportunities, and conducting educational outreach activities. An innovative study design will be used to determine what levels and types of support are most helpful and effective.
NCT02696967
The purpose of this study was to determine the safety and tolerability of CLR325 intravenous (i.v.) infusion in patients with stable heart failure to determine if further clinical development of the drug in this indication was warranted.
NCT03057977
The aim of the study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of empagliflozin versus placebo on top of guideline-directed medical therapy in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
NCT03012256
Rationale: In Canada, home care clients are a large and expanding subgroup of medically complex older adults with relatively poor access to effective chronic disease management. They have double the emergency department utilization rate compared to nursing home residents or other older populations. The investigators previously published a case-finding tool (the Detection of Indicators and Vulnerabilities for Emergency Room Trips (DIVERT) Scale) that has been recommended for chronic disease management case-finding in home care. The investigators recently conducted a pilot trial in Niagara, Canada, of a targeted, person-centered model of supportive cardio-respiratory disease management. Objectives: The investigators will evaluate a cardio-respiratory disease management model in home care to manage symptoms and avoid emergency department use. A pan-Canadian, pragmatic cluster-randomized trial will be conducted by a collaboration of trial investigators and public home care providers (i.e., health regions). The main objective is to evaluate the effectiveness and preliminary cost-effectiveness of a targeted, person-centered cardio-respiratory management model. The main question is: P: Among home care clients experiencing cardio-respiratory symptoms (objectively targeted using the DIVERT Scale), I: can a guideline-based, feasible, multi-component/complex, cardio-respiratory management model, C: compared to regular care, O: reduce cardio-respiratory symptoms, reduce/postpone unplanned emergency department (ED) visits, reduce unplanned hospital use, improve patient activation, or improve health-related quality of life for clients, T: over a 6-month follow-up period from baseline?
NCT01059682
This multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the effect of dalcetrapib 600 mg on artherosclerotic disease progression, lipid profile and biomarker profile and long-term safety profile of dalcetrapib in patients with coronary artery disease. Atherosclerotic disease progression will be measured 1. Coronary Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS), Quantitative Coronary Angiography 2. Carotid B-Mode Ultrasound Intima Medial Thickness (IMT) and total plaque volume in subjects undergoing coronary angiography who have coronary artery disease (CAD). Patients will be randomized to receive dalcetrapib 600 mg orally once a day or placebo. The anticipated time on study treatment will be 24 months. The target sample size is 800-1000 patients.
NCT01362855
The purpose of the study is to inform decision-makers of the best strategies to implement advanced care planning (ACP). An advanced care plan (ACP) is a verbal or written instruction describing what kind of care an individual would want (or not want)if they are no longer able speak for themselves to make health care decisions.

NCT02661217
To explore two modalities of treatment initiation (Pre-discharge, and Post-discharge) with LCZ696 in HFrEF patients following stabilization after an ADHF episode.
NCT02833948
The aortic valve is located between the left ventricle and the aorta. Patients with symptomatic, severe aortic valve stenosis conventionally have it surgically replaced requiring direct access to the heart through the chest. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is now a well-established alternative for treating severe aortic valve stenosis. Both types of intervention improve prognosis and alleviate symptoms. The optimal choice of blood thinning therapy after TAVR is unknown. It has been reported that leaflet thrombosis with reduced leaflet motion can occur and this phenomenon has been suggested to be potentially related with neurological events. In addition, the occurence of this phenomenon can be reduced with anticoagulation blood thinning therapy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if anticoagulation compared to the usual double platelet inhibitor therapy after TAVR can reduce the risk of leaflet thrombosis.
NCT00232180
In an earlier study, eplerenone was shown to improve survival in patients who had heart failure immediately following a heart attack. However, it is not known how patients with established mild-to-moderate heart failure (NYHA Class II), who have the additional risk of sudden death, will respond if treated with eplerenone. In this trial, eplerenone plus standard heart failure medicines is being compared to placebo plus standard heart failure medicines in terms of an additional ability to prolong life and prevent re-hospitalizations for worsening heart failure in these patients. The Data Safety Monitoring Committee (DSMC) observed during its conduct of the protocol-specified second interim analysis on the 6th of May, 2010 that the efficacy of eplerenone had met the pre-specified stopping rules in the protocol. As a result of the discussion between the DSMC and the Executive Steering Committee (ESC), the ESC recommended that EMPHASIS-HF should be terminated, Based on the convincing efficacy and the consideration that it would be unethical not to offer this treatment to patients, the ESC recommended that all the patients in the trial should be transferred to open-label eplerenone. The Open Label Extension eplerenone arm will last for 12 months. Eplerenone is not currently approved for the indication studied in this patient population. On May 26, 2010, further enrollment into EMPHASIS-HF was stopped. The amendment is considered to be the most appropriate way to ensure that all the subjects who participated in the double-blind phase of the EMPHASIS-HF trial can be offered treatment with eplerenone
NCT02290028
The QP ExCELs study is designed to confirm safety and efficacy of the BIOTRONIK Sentus OTW QP left ventricular leads to satisfy FDA requirements for regulatory approval of the leads in the US.
