Principal Investigator:
Hirad Yarmohammadi, MDWe are doing this study to gather information on participants returning at time of Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Device (CIED) change-out or revision who underwent a device implantation with either a CanGaroo envelope, Tyrx envelope, or no envelope. A CIED is a device implantable inside the body, able to conduct pacing of the heart and therefore capable of correcting most life-threatening abnormal heart rhythms. People who have had surgery to implant a medical device that helps their heart, may have had their surgery done in slightly different ways. In this study, the investigators... -
Principal Investigator:
Daichi Shimbo, MDThe measurement of blood pressure used to determine if a person has high blood pressure (also known as hypertension) and whether their blood pressure is controlled while taking medications that lower blood pressure. For many people, blood pressure levels are different when measured in a providers office versus during normal daily activities outside of the office. There are two ways to measure blood pressure outside of the office: ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) and home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM). The best approach to measure blood pressure outside of the office is unclear... -

Elaine Y Wan, MDWe are doing this study to collect sensor and heart failure (HF) event data that will be used to develop and test new diagnostic (not providing therapy) features for the insertable cardiac monitor (ICM) systems. ICMs are small devices implanted under the skin and are now widely used for the long-term monitoring and detection of abnormal heart rhythms. ICMs have the capability of wirelessly transmitting data about your heart rhythm to the physician. The ICM, with or without these sensors, is intended for diagnostic purposes only. -
Principal Investigator:
Frederick Arthur Ehlert, MDThe purpose of this registry is to collect information over time about how Medtronic products are working and/or the outcome of the treatment. The registry will be used to support post-market surveillance/monitoring activities and post-approval studies (e.g., to collect safety and performance information). In addition, it will be used to obtain clinical evidence for the development and improvement of medical devices, therapies, device guidelines and patient services/solutions. The Registry data is intended to benefit and support interests of patients, hospitals, clinicians, regulatory bodies... -
Principal Investigator:
Susheel Kumar Kodali, MDAortic stenosis (AS) or narrowing of the arteries remains one of the most common valvular diseases in the Western population requiring intervention. The deterioration of the aortic valve is more common in the older population and usually along with coronary artery disease (CAD) requires the need for treatment. This is a study that is collecting safety and effectiveness data in a high or extreme surgical risk patient population with symptomatic, severe native AS and who meet eligibility criteria for implantation of the PorticoNG valve. The Portico NG Valve (along with the delivery and loading... -
Principal Investigator:
Angelo Bartolo Biviano, MDThe purpose of this study is to assess whether it is safe and effective to stop oral anticoagulation medication (a blood-thinning medication) during prolonged periods of normal heart rhythm in participants with infrequent episodes of atrial fibrillation (AF). Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common abnormal heart rhythm and is associated with an increased risk of stroke, heart failure, and death. -
Principal Investigator:
Jennifer Haden Haythe, MDWe are doing this study to test the use of a drug called bromocriptine for women with a condition called Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM). The study will look at how the heart muscle improves in women taking bromocriptine compared to a group of women given a placebo or inactive pill. -
