To gain qualitative insights into the value of the *ACS post-discharge self-management proposition* for patients, medical staff and care institution. Understand how this prototype is used in practice by patients and staff * Investigate how it…
Measuring cardiac output using TTE with and without the use of ProbeFix in adult Intensive Care patients in which a PLR test is used as a fluid challenge. The possible changes in cardiac output measured with TTE are compared with the measurements…
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the usability of PatientCoach by patients with asthma and/ or COPD,hypertension and/or Diabetes Mellitus.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the CV risk profile of Hindustanis without known diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension, dyslipidemia or CV disease and evaluate the 10-year CV risk according to the Framingham risk score. Secondary…
The purpose of the study is to assess the diagnostic accuracy of a combined use of non-invasive coronary angiography with multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) and stress cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging in patients with obstructive lesions…
This pilot study is designed to determine the prevalence of female and male sexual dysfunction in a population of patients visiting outpatient cardiology clinics in the Netherlands. Furthermore we will determine whether patients visiting the…
The aim of the current study is to determine whether long-term follow-up in primary care, under the condition of initial optimization of pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment at the specialized HF clinic is equally effective as long term…
Primary:To examine changes in health status (functional status and quality of life) and emotional distress (i.e. anxiety and depression) over time in patients following LVAD implantation, focusing on intra-individual changes, with a view to…
In this study we want to determine the most adequate parameters (clinical, echocardiographic, Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) and B-type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP)) to diagnose a hemodynamic significant PDA. A second objective is to gather normal…
To get insight in the long term results (mortality, morbidity and cardiologic function) of patients with congenital heart disease operated at young age. To compare whether the changes in surgical techniques have resulted in an increase of (…
