The purpose of this study is to determine if the drug empagliflozin helps to lower the chances of having to go to the hospital for heart failure and whether it lowers the chances of dying from cardiovascular disease.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of etripamil nasal spray in patients with Paroxysmal Supraventricular Tachycardia (PSVT).

The purpose of this study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of selexipag in patients with inoperable or persistent/recurrent chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH).

The aim of the study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of empagliflozin versus placebo on top of guideline-directed medical therapy in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

The main objective of this study is to assess the safety, efficacy and dose response of LABR-312 administered intravenously at the time of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with a drug eluting stent in reducing restenosis as measured by Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) at 9 months post procedure in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM).

Administration of LABR-312 at the time of PCI will reduce restenosis compared with placebo as assessed by the OCT endpoint of % neointimal hyperplasia (%NIH) volume at 9 months in patients with DM.

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multi-center, double-blind, event driven study of vericiguat (MK-1242) in participants with HFrEF. The primary hypothesis is vericiguat (MK-1242) is superior to placebo in increasing the time to first occurrence of the composite of cardiovascular (CV) death or heart failure (HF) hospitalization in participants with HFrEF.

The EARLY-AF study is centered on an evaluation of the impact of the early invasive management of Atrial Fibrillation. The primary goal of the study is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of an early invasive approach. Specifically, the investigators are aiming to evaluate if PVI performed with the Arctic Front cryoballoon is superior to AAD as first-line therapy in preventing atrial arrhythmia recurrences (arrhythmia related symptoms, hospitalisations, and health care utilization).

INVESTED will test the hypothesis that high dose trivalent influenza vaccine will reduce cardiopulmonary events to a greater extent than standard dose quadrivalent influenza vaccine in high-risk cardiovascular patients with a recent history of myocardial infarction or heart failure. The trial will enroll 9300 participants over one Vanguard (pilot) season and three additional influenza seasons. The primary endpoint will be a composite of all-cause mortality or cardiopulmonary hospitalization.

The purpose of this clinical study is to test the hypothesis that market released Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) devices which contain the AdaptivCRT® (aCRT) algorithm have a superior outcome compared to standard CRT devices in CRT indicated patients with normal atrio-ventricular (AV) conduction and left bundle branch block (LBBB).

The purpose of this study is to examine the role of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) in improving neurological function in patients who are 6 to 36 months post ischemic stroke.

This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blinded clinical trial exploring the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban as compared to acetylsalicylic acid in reducing stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA) and neurocognitive decline, in subjects with non-valvular AF and with low risk of stroke.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) are two common heart conditions that are encountered with an increase in death and suffering. When both these two conditions occur in a patient, the patient's prognosis is poor with a reduced quality of life. These patients are frequently admitted to the hospital and have increased risk of death. In these HF patients who are in AF all of the time, who would otherwise be a suitable candidate for an implantable defibrillator to prevent sudden cardiac death, whether adding pacing of both ventricles will reduce death and suffering.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study in overweight and obese subjects with CV disease and/or multiple CV risk factors.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia and is associated with reductions in quality of life, functional status, cardiac performance, and overall survival.1 Catheter ablation, which is centered on electrical isolation of triggering foci within the pulmonary veins (PVI) through circumferential lesions around PV ostia, has been shown to result in sustained improvements in quality of life, decreased hospitalizations and, potentially, improved survival.2-4 PVI can be accomplished by percutaneous catheter-based thermo-coagulation (burning) with radiofrequency (RF

AMR101 (icosapent ethyl [ethyl-EPA]) is a highly purified ethyl ester of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) being developed by Amarin Pharma Inc. for the treatment of hypertriglyceridemia. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether this drug, combined with a statin therapy, will be superior to the statin therapy alone, when used as a prevention in reducing long-term cardiovascular events in high-risk patients with mixed dyslipidemia.

The primary objective of this trial is to provide a rigorous assessment of the efficacy, feasibility and safety of the Vancouver 3M Clinical Pathway protocol in patients undergoing elective transfemoral TAVR with the SAPIEN XT valve.

Prospective, non-randomized, single-arm, international multicenter, clinical safety and effectiveness investigation.
