This study is an open label, Comparative Effectiveness Research study in patients who receive a heart transplant. Subjects will be enrolled into the study while under evaluation for heart transplantation or on the transplant waiting list prior to heart transplantation. All subjects will follow the center's standard of care surveillance schedule from transplant through 4 weeks post-transplantation. The study objective is to compare the effectiveness of rejection surveillance of heart transplant recipients with Prospera dd-cfDNA to rejection surveillance with endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) in the first post-transplant year.
The Prospera™ test is a non-invasive test intended to detect and quantify the fraction of donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) to supplement management and surveillance of allograft rejection in patients who have undergone organ transplantation. The subjects may undergo blood draws, echocardiogrphys, medical history and physical exams, antibody testing, nuclear imaging, and MRI as apart of the study. The study period will be during the first 12 months post-transplant. Quality of life questionnaires will be completed at week 4, month 6 and month 12 post-transplant.

This study is enrolling subjects with high blood pressure who just received a pacemaker (an implantable device placed in the upper chest that monitors the heart rate and can send an electrical signal if needed to pace the heart to maintain a normal heart rate) or are about to undergo a pacemaker implant. This is a randomized study meaning subjects will be assigned by chance to have a new program downloaded to the pacemaker to help control blood pressure or to not receive the program. Subjects will have a 50:50 chance to receive the program. The new program is called AVIM therapy and it is investigational meaning it has not been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. (FDA) Participation in this study will last up to 36 months and include about 10 visits. Study related procedures include blood pressure monitoring including wearing a 24 hour blood pressure monitor, blood work, questionnaires, echocardiogram - an ultrasound test of the heart, pacemaker interrogation (meaning your pacemaker is checked to obtain the information stored on it) and randomization. Study related risks include risks related to the software download such as the risk that the software will not help control blood pressure, risks related to study related procedures and the risk of the loss of confidentiality.

This study is enrolling subjects who are undergoing an atrial fibrillation ablation. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a condition where the heart beats rapidly and irregularly. An ablation procedure can destroy the tissue in the heart that transmits the irregular electrical signals that cause the AF. The ablation procedure will use the PulseSelect™ PFA System which is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and uses electroporation (electrical pulses) to destroy the heart tissue.

This study will last about 2 years and include up to 6 visits, some of which can be done virtually. Study procedures include data collection, questionnaires, electrocardiogram (ECG) - which is a tracing of the heart's electrical activity, echocardiogram (Echo) - which is an ultrasound test of the heart, and a Holter monitor - which is a wearable device that continuously records heart rhythm.

This clinical research study is enrolling adults with diabetes, prediabetes or metabolic syndrome. The purpose of the study is to learn more about preventing cardiovascular disease. A heart CT scan will be done at screening and then 2 years later. Qualified participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. Participants in the usual care group, will continue to receive care from usual health care provider. In the personalized care group, participants will receive additional health care from a remote cardiologist led team which will individualize treatment based on Cleerly CAD staging results of the heart CT scan. Study is expected to last 3 1/2 years on average but could be 2 - 5 years. Participation is free.

The purpose of this study is to determine if patients with heart failure (HF, meaning a weak heart) with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 50% and with an abnormal heart beat can benefit from having pacemaker leads placed in a different location in the heart. We know that people with a weak heart and an abnormal heart beat can benefit from having a pacemaker. Participants in this study will be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) to one of two treatments (A or B), both of which are standard of care heart pacing treatments:
A. Pacing the heart from two locations in the left ventricle (lower left chamber of the heart)
B. Pacing the heart from one of two other places in the heart (the "His" or the left bundle branch)

The purpose of this study is to compare side by side these two treatments and evaluate if one is better than the other.

This study involves a procedure called renal denervation with an investigational device called the TIVUS™ system for the treatment of resistant hypertension (high blood pressure). Investigational means it is not yet approved for commercial use by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Renal denervation is a procedure done by introducing a catheter (long tube) into the large blood vessel in your groin (top of leg) and guiding it to your renal arteries, which are the blood vessels that go to your kidneys. The catheter will be placed in the renal arteries and ultrasound energy will be delivered to the renal arteries.
This study is randomized, meaning you will be assigned to one of two groups, by chance, like drawing straws. Two out of three participants will be randomized to renal denervation while one out of three will be randomized to sham. Sham means you will go through all the steps of the procedure but will not receive the treatment. Those participants randomized to sham will have the option to crossover and have the procedure after the 6 month follow up.
This study will involve at least 12 visits over the course of 36 months. Study related procedures include CT scan, ultrasound test of your heart and kidneys, blood work, urine studies, physical exams, questionnaire, and keeping home blood pressure diaries.
Study related risks include risks related to the procedure including pain, bleeding, damage to the blood vessels, risks related to the study related testing such as radiation risks, blood draw risks and loss of confidentiality. There may be benefit to you as well as others in the future with high blood pressure.

This study involves collecting data and physician feedback while using the ViewFlex X System during a routine electrophysiology (EP) procedure. An electrophysiology procedure is done to correct an electrical abnormality in the heart. The ViewFlex X System is considered investigational meaning it has not been approved for commercial use by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The ViewFlex System will obtain and integrate heart images with the mapping information obtained during your procedure. There is also an option to have the procedure videotaped. Study participation lasts until hospital discharge post procedure. Study related risks include risks associated with using the ViewFlex X System, loss of confidentiality and unknown risks.

The purpose of this research is to gather information about the effectiveness and safety of Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion (LAAO) device procedures in patients using a Watchman device performed on days where doctors perform a large number of procedures.

The study primary outcome is to evaluate complications during the procedure up to 30 days after the procedure.

The final outcome is to determine successful placement within 31 - 90 days after implant.

We are doing this study to learn more about how effective, safe and tolerable an experimental drug called balcinrenone is when used in combination with dapagliflozin for treating patients with heart failure and impaired kidney function and also to better understand the studied disease and associated health problems. Dapagliflozin is an approved drug to treat patients with heart failure, chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of acoramidis (AG-10) and determine if it can help people with the genetic TTR variant that can cause ATTR-CM. The sponsor (Eidos) is conducting a research study to see if the study medicine will help in slowing the development and/or progression of a rare disease called Symptomatic Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). AG-10 is an investigational drug. "Investigational" means that AG-10 is not yet approved for use in any settings outside of clinical research studies like this one and is considered experimental. Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle that makes it harder for the heart to pump blood to the rest of the body. AG-10 has been shown to reduce the level of TTR in the blood of animals and healthy volunteers tested to date. Reducing the amount of TTR in your blood may reduce the amount of amyloid deposits in your body and may keep your cardiomyopathy from getting worse over time.

If you meet the requirements and agree to participate in this study, you will go through a 2 part screening period and if approved you will begin treatment. You will be randomized, like flipping a coin, to drug or placebo and take two pills once every day for 60 months.
Your participation in this study will last up to 60 month and will consist of clinic visits and follow up visits at home via the telephone. Some tests requires of you will include an echo, ECG, cardioradionuclide scans (scans that use radioactive agents to look at images of the heart like a PET scan), MRIs, blood tests, nerve conduction test, urine samples, and skin biopsies.
