Active clinical trials for "Heart Defects, Congenital"

The study will recruit and follow up patients for five years patients newly diagnosed with congenital heart disease associated pulmonary arterial hypertension(CHD-PAH) from the investigator's hospital. The main aim of the study is to describe the aetiology, natural history and management practices of CHD-PAH in central China.

Thyroid hormone is critical for normal neurocognitive development in young infants, and even transient hypothyroidism can cause adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. In a population of infants with CHD who already bear a high risk of long-term developmental delay, detection of hypothyroidism, even of a transient nature, may be even more consequential, and routine periodic monitoring of thyroid function may be necessary to reduce the risk of neurodevelopmental disabilities

prospective cardio respiratory evaluation for patients post the Fontan palliation for single ventricle, compared to subjects post successful cardiac repaired surgery compared to healthy volunteers in order to evaluate the functional capacity and the primary etiology for reduction in functional capacity.

Clinical studies are required to validate the hepatic NIRS monitor with other regional and global hemodynamic parameters and to evaluate its clinical use for continuous non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring. Using newer NIRS sensors the correlation between hepatic regional oxygen saturation and hepatic venous oxygen saturation (SvHO2) needs to be determined. If found to correlate then the NIRS can be used to evaluate early liver transplant failure and/or hepatic artery thrombosis, used as an early marker for shock, and necrotizing enterocolitis, and finally used in the outpatient setting to evaluate patients with chronic liver pathologies. If our validation study finds that NIRS monitors are an appropriate marker of hepatic venous saturation then it will lead to further clinical studies.

The purpose of this retrospective study is to determine the incidence and severity of acute kidney injuries (AKI) after heart surgery on cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) in Lausanne, Switzerland.

The objective of this study is to improve the diagnosis level of fetal congenital heart disease by the multi-center collaboration in China.

The objective of this study is to use of STIC technology to assist the traditional echocardiography to diagnose the fetal congenital heart disease accurately and then to provide a basis for prenatal counseling.

The aim of this clinical prospective study is to investigate the value of fetal cardiac magnetic resonance imaging using a new Doppler ultrasound based gating method for the detection of congenital heart desease.

Prospective Cohort Study aims at elaborating the outcomes of the Tricuspid Reconstruction of Aortic valve leaflets using autologous pericardium (Ozaki procedure) in the adult and paediatric patients. A very promising technique with the potential benefits of dodging oral anticoagulation, foreign material, and suitable for patients with small aortic annuli and in infectious endocarditis. Performing hemodynamic evaluation, assess the clinical implementation and report preliminary results at follow up .

To evaluate the diagnostic performance of antenatal echocardiography with regard to the main diagnosis of heart disease made by cardio-pediatricians at the couple-child hospital in Grenoble according to the ACC-CHD classification, in pregnant women who have had a fetal heart ultrasound between 2015 and 2019. *ACC-CHD : Anatomic and Clinical Classification of Congenital Heart Defects
