Study of Circulating Monocytes in Patients With Ischemic Vascular Disease
The purpose of this research study is to discover the functions of circulating white blood cells, called monocytes, and associated circulating substances in heart attack and ischemic stroke patients. Ischemic Strokes (clots) occur as a result of an obstruction within a blood vessel supplying blood to the brain. A type …
Local And Systemic Macrophage Activation in Coronary and Peripheral Artery Disease
Numerous clinical studies have highlighted the role of macrophages in the destabilization of coronary lesions; however, there is limited literature on the relationship between circulating monocytes and intraplaque macrophages. This study aims to evaluate and compare the presence of macrophages and their subsequent activation within coronary and peripheral atherosclerotic lesions, …
Prehospital Point-of-Care Hs-Troponin I for Rule-Out of Acute Myocardial Infarction in Patients Without ST-Segment Elevation
People who call emergency medical services (EMS) with chest pain or other possible heart-related symptoms are often taken to hospital for further testing. However, only a small proportion of these patients are ultimately diagnosed with a serious heart condition such as a heart attack. This means that many patients undergo …
Comparing the Diagnostic Sensitivity and Specificity of Pleural Fluid N-Terminal Pro B-type Natriuretic Peptide (NT-proBNP) and Other Biochemical Gradient Criteria in Distinguishing Heart Failure and Non-heart Failure Related Pleural Effusions (CENTRE Study)
To assess the discriminative properties of pleural fluid (PF) N-terminal-proB-type-natriuretic-peptide (NTproBNP) levels in identifying heart failure (HF)-associated pleural effusions (PE).
Pharmacy-led Transitions of Care Intervention to Improve Medication Adherence
Socioeconomically disadvantaged populations with multiple chronic conditions have high rates of nonadherence to essential chronic disease medications after hospital discharge. Medication nonadherence after hospital discharge is significantly associated with increased mortality and higher rates of readmissions and costs among these patients. Major patient-reported barriers to essential medication use after hospital …
Flecainide in Idiopathic Premature Ventricular Contractions and Related Cardiomyopathy
The UNIFLECA study is a prospective, single-arm, observational cohort evaluating the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of flecainide (in the form of Sanocard) in adults with frequent idiopathic premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) and suspected PVC-induced cardiomyopathy (PVCi-CMP). Frequent PVCs-defined as a burden \>5% on two separate 24-hour Holter recordings-are increasingly recognized …
Effect of Point-of-care Analysis of Ultrasensitive Troponin I on Length of Hospital Stay in Patients With Cardiac Chest Pain (POC Troponina)
This clinical study aims to compare two different methods for measuring high-sensitivity troponin I, a key biomarker used to diagnose heart attacks. The primary research question is: Does the use of the Atellica VTLi kit from Siemens for high-sensitivity troponin I (hs-cTnI) testing at the point of care (POC) significantly …
NS-PFA Catheter Ablation of Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation With the Pulse Biosciences CellFX System
The objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the CellFX nano-second Pulsed Field Ablation (nsPFA) Cardiac Catheter Ablation System in treating recurrent, drug-resistant, symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF).
CellFX® Nanosecond Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA) 360 Catheter Ablation System for Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation
The objective of this study is to demonstrate initial safety and effectiveness of the CellFX nano-second Pulsed Field Ablation (nsPFA or nano-PFA) 360 Catheter Endocardial Ablation System in treating subjects with atrial fibrillation.
Impact of Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation and Mitral Valve Repair on Sleep-Disordered Breathing
This prospective observational study aims to investigate the impact of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) on sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in patients with significant valvular heart disease. Patients undergoing TAVI or M-TEER will be evaluated with full polysomnography prior to the intervention and at …
