Impact of Liwen Procedure in Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy on Arrhythmias

Hypertrophic CardiomyopathyArrhythmia

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the occurrence of various arrhythmias ( tachyarrhythmia and bradyarrhythmia ) during or after Percutaneous Intramyocardial Septal Radiofrequency Ablation. The main questions it aims to answer are: To investigate the occurrence of various arrhythmias ( tachyarrhythmia and bradyarrhythmia ) during procedure and its relationship with clinical characteristics and procedural parameters To analyze the changes of 12-lead electrocardiogram and 24-hour dynamic electrocardiogram before and after Percutaneous Intramyocardial Septal Radiofrequency Ablation and their relationships with clinical characteristics and procedural parameters

The purpose of this study is to identify markers of increased risk for incident ventricular arrhythmias and cardiovascular events in patients already being treated with an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) by exploring patient history and clinical findings, biological markers, ECG markers, and echocardiographic markers.

Sleep and Ventricular Arrhythmias Study

Cardiac ArrhythmiaImplantable Defibrillator User1 more

This is a single-center, randomized controlled trial study design. Enrolled participants have a cardiovascular condition for which they are undergoing implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) therapy and comorbid insomnia. Participants were randomized to a behavioral intervention for insomnia in ICD patients or a waitlist control. The treatment intervention period lasted 4 weeks with a telephone booster session administered at 3 month follow-up. The objective of the study is to examine the impact of a brief therapy combining established behavioral approaches to treating insomnia with novel components to target negative cognitions and anxieties associated with cardiac disease and ICD implantation. Primary patient outcomes include sleep, psychological functioning, daytime functioning, cardiac functioning, cognitive performance, and ICD adjustment.

Imaging With a Radio Tracer to Guide VT Ablations

Ventricular TachycardiaArrhythmia

Some patients are at risk for life-threatening fast heart rates. These can frequently be treated by using a catheter inside the heart to burn away the cells that create the fast heart rates. The purpose of this study is to image the nerves inside the heart of those patients. The investigators want to find out if abnormalities in the nervous system in the heart can help the physician to find the area that needs to be burnt away.

Restoring Sinus Rhythm With Cardiac Resynchronization in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation (ReSync...

Heart FailureAtrial Arrhythmia

Heart failure is a progressive disease that decreases the pumping action of the heart. This may cause a backup of fluid in the heart and may result in heart beat changes. When there are changes in the heart beat sometimes an implantable heart device is used to control the rate and rhythm of the heart beat. In certain heart failure cases, when the two lower chambers of the heart no longer beat in a coordinated manner, cardiac resynchronization therapy may be prescribed. People who have a dangerously fast heart beat, or whose heart is at risk of stopping beating, may be in need of an electronic device called an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD). Atrial tachyarrhythmia (AT) is the name for rapid beats in the upper chambers of the heart. People with AT may experience symptoms such as heart palpitations (a racing or pounding feeling in the chest), shortness of breath, dizziness, fatigue or weakness. The purpose of this study is to characterize the impact of cardiac resynchronization therapy versus cardiac resynchronization therapy with atrial therapies on the incidence, duration and termination of atrial tachyarrhythmias.

Reducing Arrhythmia in Dialysis by Adjusting the Rx Electrolytes/Ultrafiltration, Study A

End Stage Renal Disease

The primary purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of trials which change the dialysate (dialysis bath prescription) of potassium and bicarbonate according to a standardized algorithm and according to the results of blood testing performed prior to each dialysis. In addition, the trial will provide estimates of the extent to which performing dialysis in this way lowers the risk of abnormal heart rhythms in people with kidney failure who are being treated with chronic hemodialysis.

Stellatar Ganglione Blockage for Ventricular Arrhytmias

Cardiac Arrhythmia

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibrillation (VF) are life-threatening conditions that increase in frequency over the years. An electrical storm (ES) is defined as the occurrence of 3 or more continuous ventricular arrhythmia. The sympathetic nervous system has an important role in VA and is the target of treatment. Studies show that stellate ganglion blockade (SGB) can reduce cardiac sympathetic tone and is an alternative bridge therapy in VAs. In our study, the investigators preferred to apply a combination of local anesthetic and steroid in the stellate ganglion blocking method to 10 VA patients who were resistant to medical treatment and had an ICD, and we also planned to examine the 6-month follow-up results of the patients. In our study, USG-guided left stellate ganglion blockade was applied to 10 VA and ES patients with ICD. The 6-month results of the patients were evaluated retrospectively. For blockage, the solution was prepared by adding 8 mg dexamethasone, 40 mg lidocaine, and 10 mg bupivacaine to 10 mL with physiological saline. The success of the procedure was evaluated with the development of Horner's syndrome in the left eye.

Acute Kidney Injury Genomics and Biomarkers in TAVR Study

Acute Kidney InjuryRenal Insufficiency6 more

In the last decade, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become an increasingly utilized alternative procedure for replacing a stenotic aortic valve. This study collects clinical information, DNA, blood and urine samples (throughout procedural hospitalization) in order to investigate the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing TAVR and to identify key clinical and procedural predictors of AKI. This study seeks to identify blood and urine biomarkers that can be used for early detection of AKI around the time of the procedure. The study seeks to assess for novel genetic variants associated with development of AKI after TAVR. Finally the study seeks to assess for novel genetic variants and biomarkers that are associated with adverse cardiovascular events after TAVR and to further explore how these events may inter-relate with acute kidney injury.
