Brain Ultrasound With Contrast Microbubbles Injection in Shock Status
Alterations in the brain microcirculation may be involved in patients with shock. For a three-day period, we investigate the brain microcirculation using contrast-enhanced ultrasound with microbubble injection in patients with septic and non-septic shock.Ultrasound examination is performed daily to estimate global cerebral blood flow, and to evaluate the brain microcirculation, …

Assessment of Paravalvular Leak After TAVI by Hemodynamic Measurements and Cardiac MRI
Rationale: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become the standard therapy for elderly patients with high surgical risks. Paravalvular leakage after TAVI is relatively common and there is conflicting evidence regarding the clinical impact of mild paravalvular leakage in self-expanding devices. Prospective data for self-expanding devices are required to compare …

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 …

Management and Outcomes of Patients Admitted to Coronary Care Units Depending on Degree of Frailty and Comorbidities
The case record form (CRF) focus on demographic and clinical patient characteristics registered in the SWEDEHEART, particularly those which are supposed to be potential confounders when testing the hypothesis: chronological age, gender, cardiovascular risk, diabetes, heart failure, renal insufficiency, other co-morbidities, including the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), previous MI, medications, …

Heart Failure Monitoring With Eko Electronic Stethoscopes
This proof-of-concept study will evaluate the feasibility of the Eko DUO to measure signals relevant to heart failure (HF) decompensation, as well as the feasibility to develop an algorithm to model hemodynamic filling pressures in HF patients under active decompensation in a cardiac intensive care unit (CICU) or coronary care …

Change of NLRP3 Inflammasome Expression Level Symptoms and Functional Status in HFpEF Patients Treated With ARNI
Underlying inflammation has been increasingly recognized in heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction(HFpEF). But there is no study reported the relationship between NLRP3 inflammasome and HFpEF. In this study, investigators propose a scientific hypothesis that the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome is elevated in patients with HFpEF, and the level …

Pacing to Maintain Physiologic Ventricular Activation
Right ventricular pacing causes ventricular dyssynchrony and may be associated with impaired outcome. In the last decade, several approaches for more physiological pacing became available and were implemented in the latest guidelines. However, compared to conventional device implantation, cardiac resynchronization, His bundle pacing and left bundle area pacing remain demanding …
