Active clinical trials for "Heart Diseases"

Non-significant risk device study to conduct evaluation of the performance of new device for monitoring of cardiac function (based on previous iterations 510(k) 173156)

The purpose of the study is to compare the various 2D and 3D methods of valvular heart disease quantification (Doppler, PISA, VCA, volumetric method) and strain with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) measurements of left and right ventricular systolic function strain and myocardial fibrosis assessment.

This study is being conducted to provide access to and collect test data for an established nuclear medicine diagnostic imaging test called Positron Emission Tomography (PET), using a specific radioactive drug called Ammonia N-13 (Ammonia), referred to simply as an Ammonia PET scan, which is used to visualize the blood flow through the blood vessels and into the heart muscle in order to identify areas of restricted blood flow within the heart. The scanner used in this study may be a stand-alone PET scanner or a PET/CT scanner, which combines the PET scanner and a Computed Tomography (CT) scanner into a single device. Unless otherwise stated in this consent form, the term PET will be used to refer to both stand-alone PET and PET/CT scanners. While physicians have used the Ammonia PET test for many years to visualize (image) the blood flow into the heart muscle (perfusion), it is now possible to also measure the flow of blood into the heart muscle. Research studies have demonstrated clinical value in reviewing the measured blood flow values in addition to reviewing the perfusion images of blood flow into the heart muscle. Therefore, this study will establish a database of a large number of Ammonia PET measured blood flow values to serve as a future reference.

The expected outcome of better and improved patency of bypass grafts and its direct relation to pre-operative iFR measurements of stenosis as compared to direct visual physiology of stenosis in the coronary angiogram. To establish the correlation between the use of intracoronary physiology and improved graft patency at 12 months for patients undergoing CABG surgery. It is a minimum of 28 and a maximum of 100 patients single-centre proof or concept/ observational study/ pilot study.

Children with congenital heart defects are far more likely to suffer a cardiovascular arrest and be in the need of cardiopulmonary resuscitation than healthy children or those with diseases of other organ systems, especially after cardiothoracic surgery. Due to a lack of data, the exact number of resuscitations in this patient cohort, as well as the morbidity and mortality, is unknown. This study aims to register all cardiovascular arrests in pediatric patients with congenital heart disease and study the mortality and morbidity with a special focus on the neurodevelopmental outcome.

The study aim is to test the diagnostic performance of internists interpreting echo images aided by the AISAP CARDIO V0.7 diagnostic support system. Ground truth will be established by an interpretation by cardiologists specialized in echo, of the same POCUS images (acquired by the internist \ sonographer ). Up to 1000 subjects; Study population will be distributed according to the following schema: Group 1 -up to 800 patients hospitalized in the Internal Medicine division Group 2 - up to 200 patients hospitalized in the acute Geriatric division

NPs can be used To detect subset of asymptomatic with subtle LV dysfunction for further evaluation and earlier referral for intervention and its correlation with echocardiographic finding.

The purpose of this study is to assess the influence of extracorporeal circulation during cardiac surgery on the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) after the surgery.

The study objective is to compare neurodevelopmental (ND) and behavioral outcomes between children with Down syndrome (DS) who had complete atrioventricular septal defect (CAVSD) repair and children from the same clinical sites with DS without major congenital heart disease (CHD) requiring previous or planned CHD surgery.

To evaluate the long-term clinical outcomes and prognostic factors in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing invasive coronary angiography (ICA), intravascular imaging, or invasive physiologic assessment.
