Treatment Of Atrial Fibrillation In Preserved Cardiac Function Heart Failure
Recruiting
Heart failure (HF) with preserved left ventricular function (pEF) is difficult clinical syndrome to treat effectively with few evidence based therapies. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is now an important co-morbidity being observed in 43% of patients with HFpEF. Rhythm control has not been studied in this population. Catheter ablation and antiarrhythmic drugs are rhythm control therapies that have been used for treatment of AF without HF or HF with reduced systolic function but have not been widely ap...

Safety and Effectiveness of Placental Derived Exosomes and Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Moderate to Severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) Associated With the Novel Corona Virus Infection (COVID-19)
Recruiting
Recent advances have been made in prevention of the viral infection via vaccines but there is still need for effective treatment options for patients. Novel therapies need to be developed to further improve clinical outcomes. The biggest medical challenge in the response to COVID-19 is ARDS requiring hospitalization in an intensive care setting and ventilator dependence. Intravenously administered umbilical cord derived exosomes and stem cells have been reported in literature to alleviate pulmon... Read More

PET Imaging CCR2 in Lung Inflammation
Recruiting
The primary objective of this study is to assess the lung distribution of the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging radiotracer Cu-DOTA-ECL1i, which binds to the specific population inflammatory cells, in patients with fibrotic lung diseases. This objective includes sub-studies to assess radiotracer distribution in the lung, the reproducibility of PET scans and the relationship of the scan to distribution of inflammatory cells in human lung tissue. The overall goal is to assess the potentia... Read More

Ovarian Morphology in Girls
Recruiting
Establishment of regular menstrual cycles is a key component of reproductive maturation and a recognized vital sign for health and well-being. Irregular menstrual cycles are especially common for the first 2-3 years after an adolescent's first menstrual period (i.e., menarche), which delays the identification and diagnosis of early reproductive disturbances such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The purpose of this research study is to determine whether the ovary can serve as a reliable predi... Read More

Effects of Microplegia on Transfusion Rates After Cardiac Surgery
Recruiting
This is a prospective, randomized study that is studying the rate of red blood cell (RBC) transfusion rates after planned heart (cardiac) surgery. The study will be conducted at Barnes-Jewish Hospital. Cardioplegia refers to the method of stopping (arresting) the heart in order to perform heart surgery. However, cardioplegia has also come to refer to the solution to achieve cardiac arrest as well as the machinery in which to deliver the solution. This study will investigate our current Standard...
