The Effectiveness of Surgical Treatment of Patients With Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
The study focuses on the development of a new personalized approach to diagnostics and surgical treatment of patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy. The algorithm for selection of patients for certain type of cardiac surgery will be developed. The models for prediction of the risks and outcomes of cardiac surgery will be …

Preoperative Percutaneous RVAD to Preemptively Treat Right Heart Failure Post-LVAD
Prior studies have shown that left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation commonly results in right ventricular failure (RVF). Right ventricular dysfunction and failure after LVAD implantation is known to increase morbidity and mortality and contribute to longer post-implant hospital length of stay.

Training Single Arm
The pulmonary hypertension is a disease, which tends to a progredient right heart failure. Although there was a large progress in development of medical therapy, the quality of life, the physical efficiency and the prognosis of the patients are still limited.

Impact of Interval Training on Sympathetic Hyperactivity and Vascular Function
In this study, the investigators are testing the hypothesis that reduction in sympathetic activity would be greater following high-intensity interval training (HIIT) than moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) and correspond with improvements in peripheral vascular function, and skeletal muscle function in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).

Heart Transplantation Using Normothermic Regional Perfusion Donation After Circulatory Death
Normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) utilizes Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) or cardiopulmonary bypass to reperfuse the heart and other organs in situ after isolation and ligation of the cerebral vessels. In situ resuscitation of the heart has the added advantage of allowing full hemodynamic and echocardiographic assessment of the donor heart …

Evaluation of the Right Ventricular Systolic Function Using Real-time Three-dimensional Echocardiography in Intensive Care Unit Patients
Right ventricular failure (RVF) is an independent factor of mortality for many pulmonary diseases. Currently, RVF is defined as the incapacity of the RV to maintain the flow without dilating to use the Frank-Starling law (i.e., increase of the ejection volume associated to an increase of the preload).

Cryoballoon Pulmonary Vein Isolation for Atrial Fibrillation With Heart Failure
The combination of atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) is common and implies a poor prognosis. Pulmonary vein isolation is an established method for the treatment of symptomatic AF in patients with normal heart function and has been shown to be more effective than drug therapy.

Effect of Nutritional Supplementation and Pulmonary Rehabilitation on the Clinical Status of HF and COPD
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading cause of death in the world and our country. The prevalence of Heart Failure (HF) is 1-2% in the adult population in developed countries, up to 10% among people 70 years of age. Concerning COPD, it is estimated that by 2030 will be the …
