Active clinical trials for "Heart Diseases"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of the Promoting Resilience in Stress Management (PRISM) intervention in patients with adult congenital heart disease.

This prospective randomized controlled trial aims to examine the effect of subcostal transverse abdominis plane block on the postoperative pain and opioid consumption in patients (12y≤ age) who will undergo epigastric cardiac pacemaker operation. Patients will be allocated to either the SC TAP(subcostal transverse abdominis plane block) group or the control group (no block). Bilateral subcostal transverse abdominis plane block will be performed using 0.25% ropivacaine (0.5mL/kg for each side, MAX 20mL for each side) under ultrasound-guidance at the end of surgery. The pain score at 10 min after PACU admin, 1, 6, 24 hours after the surgery, the total opioid consumption at 12, and 24 hours after the surgery, the total dose of additional rescue analgesia (intravenous ketololac or nalbuphine) at 12 and 24 hour after the surgery will be recorded.

Objective to evaluate the effect of Shexiang Baoxin Pill on myocardial ischemia in patients with coronary microvascular dysfunction (non obstructive coronary heart disease) through a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical multicenter study.At the same time, the effects of exercise tolerance and quality of life were also observed.

The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HS-001 CS transplanted into severe heart failure patients with underlying ischemic heart disease for 26 weeks after transplantation.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the functionality of transcatheter implantation of the Medtronic Harmony Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve (TPV) achieved by real-world implanters.

This trial aimed to assess whether assumed increase in physical activity after tele-exercise training can improve cardiorespiratory fitness of patients with cardiometabolic multimorbidity.

COMPASS is a prospective multicenter randomized interventional trial. Participants with ductal-dependent pulmonary blood flow will be randomized to receive either a systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt or ductal artery stent. Block randomization will be performed by center and by single vs. two ventricle status. Participants will be followed through the first year of life.

In patients with 50-90% stenosis of the coronary artery, the coronary roadmap (dynamic roadmap) is performed when the conventional fractional flow reserve (FFR) and instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) are performed. coronary roadmap system) to confirm the effectiveness of the function.

Congenital heart disease (CHD) is associated with daily stressors and functional impairments that can cause negative emotions. Emotion regulation abilities may determine whether people with CHD develop psychopathology or adapt to the illness-related regulatory demands. This three-arm randomized clinical trial evaluates the efficacy of emotion regulation interventions in individuals with CHD. Patients with CHD over 18 years will be randomly assigned to a CHD-specific web-based emotion regulation intervention, a general web-based emotion regulation intervention, or a waitlist control group with delayed intervention access (8 weeks). The interventions are based on cognitive behavioral therapy, including everyday emotion regulation exercises and psychoeducation via video and audio files. Four and eight weeks after baseline, emotion regulation, well-being, depression, anxiety, perceived stress, life satisfaction, and illness identity will be assessed. Both interventions are expected to improve emotion regulation abilities, well-being, depressive symptoms, anxiety, perceived stress, life satisfaction, and illness identity four and eight weeks after baseline compared to the waitlist control group. The disease-specific intervention is hypothesized to be superior as it targets everyday emotional problems in CHD patients.

Consequences of stroke are manyfold but all of them are important factors on the long-term outcomes of rehabilitation, becoming an important health problem with requires health strategies with advanced age. High intensity interval training (HIIT) is an efficient training protocol used in cardiac rehabilitation programs, but owing to the inter-individual variability in physiological responses to training associated to cardiovascular diseases, the exercise dose received by each patient should be closely controlled and individualized to ensure the safety and efficiency of the exercise program. The heart rate variability (HRV) is actually being used for this purpose, as it is closely linked to de parasympathetic nervous system activation. In this way, higher scores in HRV are associated with a good cardiovascular adaptation. The objective of this protocol is to determine the effect of HIIT compared with HRV-guided training on cardiorespiratory fitness, heart rate variability, functional parameters, body composition, quality of life, inflammatory markers, cognitive function, and feasibility, safety and adherence in patients after stroke undertaking an 8-week cardiac rehabilitation program. This will be a cluster-randomized controlled protocol in which patients after stroke will be assigned to an HRV-based training group (HRV-G) or a HIIT-based training group (HIIT-G). HIIT-G will train according to a predefined training program. HRV-G training will depend on the patients' daily HRV. The peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak), endothelial and work parameters, the heart rate variability, the functional parameters, the relative weight and body fat distribution, the quality of life, the inflammatory markers, the cognitive function, and the exercise adherence, feasibility and safety will be considered as the outcomes. It is expected that this HRV-guided training protocol will improve functional performance in the patients after stroke, being more safe, feasible and generating more adherence than HIIT, providing a better strategy to optimize the cardiac rehabilitation interventions.
