Rehabilitation by Eccentric Exercise in Heart Failure Patients (REX-HF)
As part of the regular rehabilitation program for chronic heart failure (CHF) patients, the addition of dynamic eccentric endurance (ECC) exercise sessions to the conventional concentric cycling program (CON) would enable greater gains in functional capacity that the CON alone. Furthermore, in the case of severe heart failure, results of …

Cryoballoon Pulmonary Vein Isolation vs. Radiofrequency Pulmonary Vein Isolation With Additional Right Atrial Linear Ablation for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation: Prospective Randomized Trial (CRAPAF Trial)
Cryoballoon ablation is proven to be effective in pulmonary vein isolation in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, and it can reduce the procedure time compared to conventional radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation. Recently, high-power short-duration RF ablation has been known to reduce procedure time remarkably, and it can eliminate extra-pulmonary vein …

Kardia Mobile for Detecting Arrhythmias in Children
The objective of this project is to evaluate the Kardia Mobile capability of detecting arrhythmic events in children with history of palpitation and or syncope. We will compare this approach with the standard approach of clinical follow-up plus 24-hour Holter ECG monitoring in terms of acceptability and ability to identify …

PRAGUE-25 Trial. Catheter Ablation vs. AADs and Risk Factor Modification.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia with a prevalence of 2% in general population. Incidence and prevalence of AF has been slightly increasing due to increasing age, improved ability to treat cardiac diseases, and higher incidence of obesity and other risk factors associated with AF. AF …

The Effect of Inhaled Nitric Oxide on Deadspace in COPD
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive disease of the respiratory system that generally develops as a result of smoking. Most people with COPD are classified as having "mild" disease severity and may not have significantly impaired lung function (e.g. flow) as measured by traditional lung function tests. However, …

Nicotinamide Riboside for Treating Elevated Systolic Blood Pressure and Arterial Stiffness in Middle-aged and Older Adults
Aging is the primary risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD), the number one cause of death in developed societies. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) increase with age and is a key intermediary factor linking aging to increased CVD risk. The primary mechanisms underlying the age-associated increase in SBP is stiffening of …

Inspiratory Muscle Strength Training for Lowering Blood Pressure and Improving Endothelial Function in Postmenopausal Women: Comparison With "Standard of Care" Aerobic Exercise
High blood pressure (BP) is the major modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and related health conditions, particularly among postmenopausal (PM) women. In adults age ≥50 years this risk is primarily driven by above-normal systolic BP (SBP ≥120 mmHg), as diastolic BP plateaus, then decreases in older adulthood. Although …

Pharmacogenetic Study of Antiarrhythmic Drugs for Atrial Fibrillation
In this pilot and feasibility study, the investigators will enroll patients with frequent symptomatic episodes of atrial fibrillation (AF) in a cross-over study testing two different classes of anti arrhythmic drugs (AADs). This pilot and feasibility study will provide preliminary data for a larger study in which the investigators will …
