The purpose of the study is to give more information about how the VIVO software and inHEART software merge together and what potential benefits this could provide the physician for planning ablation procedures. In addition, the study will also provide information about the accuracy of VIVO in varying degrees of damaged hearts.
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.
This study aims to explore symptoms for Black women with heart failure using surveys and interviews. Black women have not been included in the majority of heart failure research. It is important that Black women have a voice and the ability to share their symptom experience. The goal of this research is to study clusters of heart failure symptoms in Black women to eventually improve symptom education, monitoring, and treatments.
This study uses CT scans to visualize the heart and surrounding arteries to look for coronary artery disease. This study takes into account individuals body type including size, weight, and heart rate to tailor the CT scan and contrast media given to each patient. Taking into account each patients body will allow doctors to obtain the best image possible while reducing the amount of contrast media given to patients.
This study is an early feasibility study which typically consist of evaluating innovative devices or innovative uses of approved devices. The purpose of this study is to see if an investigational device called preCARDIA Intermittent Balloon Device can limit fluid overload in congested patients with advanced heart failure. This investigational device is a catheter which has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to occlude large vessels but not for the treatment of advanced heart failure. Currently, there are no device-based approaches that are FDA-approved for advanced heart failure. This study will help find out if this device-based approach can improve symptoms and heart function in congested patients with advanced heart failure
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (the levels of drug in the blood) and pharmacodynamics (the effect of the drug on your body) of the study drug, MYK-491, when administered orally twice a day for about one to two weeks.The study will recruit patients with an enlarged heart and weakened heart muscle not caused by heart damage from a heart attack or heart valve problem. Eligible patients must also have a specific genetic mutation called MHY7. All subjects that qualify will receive MYK-491 (no placebo, or inactive pill will be dispensed during the study). The study medication is designed to improve cardiac contractility or the ability of the heart to squeeze.
This study has two treatment periods during which multiple doses of MYK-491 (the study drug) will be administered. Once Treatment Period 1 is completed, participants will return to the clinical site for study assessments and to obtain a dose for Treatment Period 2. The investigator will review the results of the study assessments and participants will learn if they will receive a lower or higher dose of MYK-491 for Treatment Period 2 than they received in Treatment Period 1. The expected study duration ranges from about 4 weeks to 11 weeks, including about 1-8 weeks for screening, 9 to 15 days for IMP dosing and an approximately 1 week (7±1 days) follow-up visit.
We will recruit patients with atrial fibrillation during office visits, inpatient admission, and at time of elective direct current cardioversions.
We will record 15 minutes of ECG data and data from the Mindmics earbuds during office visit or prior to and after cardioversion.
We will use the recorded data to formulate algorithms to discern atrial fibrillation from normal sinus rhythm.
The Revivent TC System study is being conducted to test an investigational device that can repair a Left Ventricular Aneurysm without the use of a heart-lung machine, or opening the chest/heart chamber. The device works by placing a tuck in the heart where there is scar, which has the effect of shortening the distance across the heart and decreasing the tension, or stress, on the working heart muscle. The device consists of several implants, called anchors. The anchors are placed during a surgery in which your doctors will access your heart by placing a guide wire through a vein in your neck into your heart and also through an incision in your chest wall between your ribs on your left side. The anchors will help reshape your heart muscle by tucking in the scarred area. It is expected that the total study duration will be approximately 6 years, consisting of 1 year of patient enrollment and 5 years of patient follow-up.
This is a prospective, multicenter clinical trial for individuals presenting to the Emergency Department with suspicion of acute heart failure. A blood sample collected will be used to compare the standard of care BNP test used at the local site to the investigational assay from Beckman Coulter (sponsor).
The diagnosis and treatment of patients at each site will use an FDA-cleared BNP or NT-proBNP assay under the site's standard of care and NOT the investigational assay.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and how well the V-Wave Interatrial Shunt works. The study will also look at information obtained from the tests performed to see if subjects have improvement in symptoms of heart failure. Participation in this study will last approximately 1 year to up to 7 years depending on randomization group. During the study period subjects will be asked to attend regular study visits with the research coordinator. These visits will include such activities as blood tests, questionnaires, physical evaluation by a study doctor, echocardiogram, and 6 minute hall walks. There will be a minimum of 10 or up to 15 planned research clinic visits. Subjects will have 1 overnight hospital stay for the study related RHC and research procedure. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, study participants may be discharged the same day when necessary. Each participant will receive a phone call between all study visits.
Subjects will have a 50:50 chance of receiving the Shunt during the randomization procedure (like the flip of a coin). Neither the subject, nor the blinded study doctor or blinded study coordinator will know which group subjects are in. Participants will be randomized to either the treatment group (and receive the Shunt) or the control group (and not receive the shunt). Neither the subject nor the study doctor will decide what group subjects are assigned.
