To investigate the association between shear stress and plaque growth and plaque composition changes over time. Furthermore, it will be investigated how these plaque changes influence the local wall stress.
2.1 Primary objectiveTo determine patterns of response in the transvalvular pressure gradient while altering transvalvular flow.2.2 Secondary objectives-To quantify any added value or differentiation from stress assessment of aortic stenosis…
1. To investigate non-invasive 4D flow CMR for the assessment of aortic arch stenosis and compare and correlate this to conventional imaging modalities and to three-dimensional rotational angiography (3DRA) with computational fluid dynamics (CFD). 2…
This study aims at establishing the influence of sampling site on the variability of ACT measurement at the end of coronary angiography or PCI.
Zie document PROTOCOL SYNOPSIS ABC study
To evaluate whether integral AF treatment in primary care is non-inferior in terms of reducing all-cause mortality (primary outcome) and specific cardiac mortality and hospitalization and non-cardiac hospitalization (secondary outcomes), as compared…
Primary objectives: to investigate functional and histopathological changes of the right ventricle before and after PVR and PPVI. To investigate if non-invasive assessment of RV-remodeling using CMR T1 mapping and T1rho mapping is possible and to…
In the present study we aim to determine the value of microvascular resistance measurements in the acute setting to predict the occurrence of MVO in the following days, using the combined pressure-flow wire. Therefore patients with an acute MI will…
Primary objective: To validate the quantification of AR by time-densitometry on contrast aortography with the gold standard of CMRI measurements in order to refine the interpretation and evaluate the accuracy of the qRA method. Secondary objective:…
The current randomized study aims to evaluate potential differences between the Edwards SAPIEN bioprosthesis and the Medtronic CoreValve® system with main focus on periprosthetic aortic regurgitation and additional focus on other clinical and…
The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether circulating fibrotic biomarkers are related to the amount of cardiac fibrosis as determined by MRI in patients. Secondarily, this study aims to investigate whether these biomarkers are…
Primary objectivesTo show that a model incorporating the novel predictors BSPM, TE-ECG and SNPs is superior to existing models in predicting maintenance of sinus rhythm after successful DCC in patients with persistent AF.Secondary objectivesTo…
Compare hemodynamic parameters and flow patterns of the stented Mitroflow bioprosthesis, stentless Freedom SOLO bioprosthesis,transcatheter Edwards Sapien bioprosthesis and healthy control subjects, measured with 4D flow MRI.
To determine whether CCTA can provide a more efficient diagnostic work-up in suspected NSTE-ACS patients with an initial inconclusive work-up by identifying patients that do not have significant coronary artery disease.
The objective is to study the feasibility of different PET tracers to detect vulnerable plaques in patients with a recent acute coronary syndrome and co-localize these inflammatory lesions with anatomical plaque features obtained with CT based…
The study has two main objectives. The first objective is to estimate the extra yield in detected cases of AF in patients aged 65 years and over, using case finding. The second is to compare three methods to detect AF.
To assess if information about aortic calcification obtained from routine preoperative ultra low-dose chest CT reconstructed with IR lowers the postoperative stroke rate in patients undergoing heart surgery by optimizing surgical strategy compared…
Cross-sectional study: To detect the normal range of amplitudes and segment intervals of the fECG. Case-cohort study: To compare the fECG between healthy fetuses and fetuses with various forms of severe CHD. To determine the diagnostic value of fECG…
To demonstrate the efficacy of AdreView* imaging for appropriately guiding the decision of ICD implantation in a population of New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II and III Heart Failure (HF) patients with 25% * left ventricular ejection…
The primary objective is to investigate cerebral perfusion in rest and in response to moderate exercise (handgripping or light cycling) and a visual stimulus in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis prior and after surgical or transcatheter…
