NCT02783716 · Status: TERMINATED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 45

Last updated 2023-01-18

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this research study is to determine the role of blood vessel endothelial function in heart failure and the effect of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) on heart and endothelial function.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Subcutaneous adipose tissue collection

During standard of care device implantation procedure, a small piece of fat tissue will be removed from the device pocket inside the chest

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT)

Non-invasive testing for blood vessel function. Specially designed finger probes placed on the middle finger of each hand. Pulsatile volume changes of the distal digit inducing pressure alterations in the finger cuff will be sensed by pressure transducers and recorded. Endothelial function will be measured via a reactive hyperemia (RH)-PAT index (RHI)
