This will be a 26-week, prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled safety and efficacy study of udenafil 87.5 mg tablets versus placebo (both taken twice daily in adolescent subjects who have had the Fontan procedure. The primary efficacy endpoint will be change from baseline at 26 weeks in peak minute oxygen consumption [VO2] (mL/kg/min).
This is a study comparing the new class anticoagulants factor XIa to the FDA approved Apixaban. The study is to determine if Milvexian is as effective and safe with preventing clots for patients with A-fib and to determine if Milvexian is better at reducing the chances of bleeding.

This research is being done to assess whether it is safe and effective to stop oral anticoagulation medications (a blood-thinning medication) during prolonged periods of normal heart rhythm in participants with infrequent episodes of atrial fibrillation (AF).
You may qualify for this study if you have a history of atrial fibrillation (AF) and are currently taking an oral anticoagulant (a blood-thinning medication). You will be randomized to one of two groups: Control Group or Study Intervention Group.
If you are randomized to the Control group, you will be asked to stay on your previously prescribed oral anticoagulant. If you are randomized to the Study Intervention group, you will be asked to take the oral anticoagulant for 30 days only if a prolonged episode of AF is detected on an AF-sensing Apple smartwatch you will be provided.
This proposal is to contribute to data registry and sample bank called Pediatrics Biorepository for Cardiology Clinical Research. Samples collected in this study may be used for future research which plan to advance the state of science in the hopes to develop new ways to diagnose and treat children affected with heart conditions.
This study will examine whether a baroreflex activation therapy device (a small pacemakers that are helpful in heart failure) is beneficial for left ventricular assist device (LVAD) patients. For patients who have a baroreflex activation therapy device and LVAD, we assess whether baroreflex activation therapy helps them feel better and have fewer symptoms. We will also look at whether it helps with recovery of their weak heart. Participation in this study will last 6 months and require 3 clinic visits. At each visit, a participant's symptoms will be assessed, they will have pictures of their heart taken to determine function, and bloodwork will be drawn.
Over 2400 people who have sickle cell disease and are between the ages of 15 and 45 have been enrolled into the National Registry (SCDIC-I) of patients with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). A rich resource of natural history data, the SCDIC-I Registry has longitudinal data collected yearly since 2016 from patient surveys (e.g. self reported pain incidences, sleep, barriers to care, experiences during and after pregnancy), medical record abstraction (e.g. medications, transfusion history, co-morbidities) and laboratory results. The 150 patients (or 1200 among the 8 sites) will be selected from both MUSC adult and pediatric SCD clinics starting at 12 years of age; those not previously enrolled in the SCDIC National Registry will be offered the possibility to enroll in SCDIC-II.
We will look at the following:
1- Compare the effect of new SCD medications – crizanlizumab, voxelotor, and L-glutamine – on clinical outcomes in individuals with SCD.
2 - Identify genetic and genomic predictors of response to crizanlizumab, voxelotor, and L-glutamine
3 - Integrate study data into the CureSCi metadata catalog (MDC) to enhance future cross-study analyses.
The PK Papyrus Covered Coronary Stent System is a Humanitarian Use device (HUD) approved for the use of acute perforation in native coronary vessels or coronary bypass grafts in vessels 2.4-5.0mm in diameter. In an emergency situation, PK Papyrus may be used emergently outside its' approved indications if a patient has a life threatening condition that needs immediate treatment and no generally acceptable alternative treatment for the condition exists.
This study will compare WATCHMAN FLXTM ("DEVICE") to a category of OAC called non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulation, also known as NOACs ("CONTROL"). NOAC medications include Pradaxa® (dabigatran), Eliquis® (apixaban), Xarelto® (rivaroxaban), or Savaysa® (edoxaban).The study will research the safety and effectiveness of the WATCHMAN FLXTM device compared to treatment with NOAC therapy to determine if it works for patients with your type of atrial fibrillation who require treatment for potential blood clot formation (thrombus) in the LAA.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the JenaValve Trilogy™ Heart Valve System in a patient population with symptomatic severe Aortic regurgitation ( a condition where the heart's aortic valve does not close tightly and allows some blood to leak back into the heart chamber) requiring replacement/repair of their native aortic valve that are at high risk for open surgical aortic valve replacement/repair (SAVR).
Your involvement in this study will last approximately 5 years from the time of your procedure. The visits include: Screening/Baseline, Procedure, Pre-Discharge, 1 month, 6 months and annualy for 5 years
