The primary objective of this study is:to evaluate the effect of RPM + in-clinic follow-up versus in-clinic follow-up only on patient-reported health status/quality of life after implantation with an ICD/CRT-D device. The secondary objectives are: 1…
The objective of this study is to measure the effect of a smart technology intervention on patients after AMI.
To test the hypothesis that 6 months DAPT after second generation DES implantation in STEMI is not inferior to 12 months DAPT in terms of clinical outcomes (composite endpoint of all-cause mortality, any MI, any revascularization, stroke and major…
Conduct a multicenter randomized clinical trial to assess whether the use of the decision aid results in optimization of shared-decision making and improved quality of life in patients who have been accepted for aortic and/or mitral valve…
In this study we will assess the effects of exenatide on cardiac metabolism and function in patients with T2DM and CHF. We will address the following hypothesis: exenatide improves global cardiac function in CHF patients with T2DM, by favorable…
To test the non-inferiority of 6- versus 12- month dual antiplatelet therapy in patients with lesions treated with at least one second generation DES.
Primary:-To assess the impact of educational programme on implementation phase adherence in patients taking apixaban for Stroke Prevention in Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation (SPAF) at 24 weeks.Secondary:-To identify predictive risk factors linked…
Does CPB affect microcirculatory function by comparing on-pump (CON-CPB) and off-pump (OFF-PUMP) cardiothoracic surgery?Does pulsatile flow during cardiopulmonary bypass (PULSE-CPB) improve microcirculatory function as compared to continuous flow (…
Does dexamethason reduce the levels of plasma inflammatory proteins in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery who have a normal or disturbed ejection fraction such that proapoptotic pathways are inhibited?Does a…
The primary objective of this study is to determine the equivalence accuracy of energy expenditure and resting heart rate measurement of newly developed software in reference to currently approved software. Secondary objective is to asses the…
This scientific study is intended to compare the safety and effectiveness of two stents, the Firehawk* stent and the XIENCE* stent. Both stents release a medicine. This reduces the odds of the blood vessel narrowing again. The Firehawk* stent is…
Primary Objective: To compare the extent of haemolysis associated with the use of the conventional versus the miniaturised heart lung machine in the Amphia hospital, with the aim to set up evidence-based guidelines for the use of a specific type of…
The purpose of the study is to validate the measurements of an activity and heart rate band. The primary objective of this study is to determine the measurement accuracy of the activity and heart rate band with regards to the measurement of energy…
The objective of this study is to investigate:1) the effectiveness of CHIP-Family on psychosocial wellbeing (i.e.: behavioral and emotional problems) in 4 to 7 year old children who underwent cardiac surgery or a catheter intrervention for CHD.2)…
Primary:- To elucidate the change in physical activity as assessed by the distance walked in meters during the 6-minute walk test between baseline and 12weeks of study drug treatment in sacubitril/valsartan vs. enalapril patients.- To assess changes…
The primary objective is to investigate the efficacy of a magic-based intervention in alleviating short-term self-reported distress in children (7-18 years of age) undergoing catheter-based ablation for cardiac arrhythmias on the day of the…
To determine the effect of tailored exergaming for inactive patients with HF to reduce their sedentary time, improve their daily physical activity, exercise capacity, decrease frailty and improve health-related quality of life.
