BACKGROUND Although multidisciplinary congestive heart failure clinics in the United States appear to be effective in reducing the number of hospital readmissions, it is unclear whether the same benefit is seen in countries such as Canada, where access to both general and specialized medical care is free and unrestricted. We sought to determine the impact of care at a multidisciplinary speciali...
OBJECTIVES This study sought to investigate whether darbepoetin alfa, an erythropoiesis-stimulating protein (ESP), improves exercise capacity in patients with symptomatic chronic heart failure (CHF) and anemia. BACKGROUND Anemia is common in patients with CHF. METHODS In a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, CHF patients with anemia (hemoglobin > or =9.0 to < or...
Methods Patients with DCM (n = 15, age 58 ± 2 years), stable on medical therapy, were studied before and after 8 weeks of training for 20 minutes, 5 times per week on a home exercise bike. Cardiac volumes and function were measured using MR at 3T during rest and leg exercise. High energy phosphate metabolism was measured as the ratio of phosphocreatine to ATP (PCr/ATP) by Phosphorus magnetic re...
BACKGROUND Cardiac contractility modulation (CCM) signals are nonexcitatory electrical signals delivered during the absolute refractory period intended to improve contraction. We previously tested the safety and efficacy of CCM in 428 NYHA functional class III/IV heart failure patients with EF ≤35% and narrow QRS randomized to optimal medical treatment (OMT) plus CCM (n = 215) versus OMT alone ...
Studies systematically comparing the performance of health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) instruments in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) are lacking. We sought to address this by comparing cardiac and respiratory-specific measures of HRQoL in PAH. We prospectively assessed HRQoL in 128 patients with catheterisation-confirmed PAH at baseline and at 6, 12 and post-24 month follow-up visits...
Aims The impact of atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation in early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is unknown. Our aim was to determine the AF on symptoms and exercise haemodynamic parameters HFpEF. Methods results Symptomatic patients referred for index ?50% underwent baseline quality life questionnaires, echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, right catheterisa...
