1. A Study of Long-Term Outcomes of Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Recipients with Congestive Heart Failure

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the long-term outcome of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) recipients with congestive heart failure and any indications for CRT at Mayo Clinic.   

2. A Study to Evaluate NT-proBNP Levels in the Prediction of Intrapartum and Postpartum Events in Adult Congenital Heart Disease Patients

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to characterize the relationship between NT-proBNP levels obtained at time of admission for delivery and subsequent cardiovascular events in ACHD patients, and to describe normative values for NT-proBNP at time of admission for delivery in an uncomplicated obstetric population.

3. Neural Circulatory Control and SUDEP Risk.

   Rochester, Minn.

   The investigators believe epilepsy alters the way the body controls blood pressure, heart rate and breathing, and these changes increase the risk of sudden unexpected death in patients with epilepsy (SUDEP). SUDEP-7 is a risk scoring tool which may correlate with these changes to the heart and blood vessels. This research study measures those differences which may help identify new markers to help predict those patients at greatest risk in the future.

4. A Study to Evaluate Sex and Age Differences in Ehlers Danlos Syndrome Patients

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to determine whether serum biomarkers and comorbidities differ between subjects with hEDS/HSD vs. other non-hypermobile EDS subtypes and whether sex and/or age differences exist, and to determine whether serum biomarkers and comorbidities differ between subjects with hEDS vs. HSD and whether sex and/or age differences exist.

5. A Study to Evaluate Long-term Outcomes of Alcohol Septal Ablation for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine long term vital status, symptoms, and need for repeat procedure after alcohol septal ablation, to determine patient and procedural factors associated with successful alcohol septal ablation and need for repeat procedure, and to determine the impact of conduction abnormalities after alcohol septal ablation on long-term outcomes.

6. A Study to Identify Late-Occurring Complications in Childhood Cancer Survivors

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this trial is to identify cancer survivors who are at increased risk of developing late-occurring complications after undergoing treatment for childhood cancer. A patient's genes may affect the risk of developing complications, such as congestive heart failure, heart attack, stroke, and second cancer, years after undergoing cancer treatment. Genetic studies may help doctors identify survivors of childhood cancer who are more likely to develop late complications.

7. A Study to Evaluate Potential Myocardial Injury in Patients with Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices Undergoing Defibrillation Threshold Testing

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine if defibrillation threshold testing (DFT) results in myocardial injury as assessed by changes in high sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT). This will be done by comparing pre-and-post DFT hs-cTnT levels in these patients.

8. Identification of Novel Genetic Variants and Biomarkers of Disease Progression in Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to identify hereditary causes of cardiomyopathy.

9. Is Our Microbiome a Predictor of Cardiac Risk

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to compare the fecal microbiota of patients with mild, moderate and severe Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) by collecting stool and blood samples from patients undergoing coronary angiograms.

    

10. Cardiotoxic Effects of Chemotherapy in Patients with Sarcomas

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to determine if two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) derived-strain can detect early myocardial dysfunction and thus predict cardiotoxicity in sarcoma subjects undergoing anthracycline therapy and to compare three dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D-STE) to 2D-STE in the same group of patients.
