7 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The investigators are purposing a study to evaluate the use of acetaminophen given prior to an electrophysiology procedure and post procedural pain control.
This study will evaluate the use of a robotic device that is remotely controlled to maneuver a circular mapping catheter in the left atrium during Atrial Fibrillation (AF) ablation procedures.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of weighted blankets to reduce agitation in patients in the post-procedural phase after cardiac catheterization and electrophysiology procedures in the post anesthesia care unit. The study hypothesizes that compared to the traditional and current post-procedural strategy, weighted blanket use will reduce agitation and therefore lessen the need for additional sedation along with a reduction of post-procedure vascular complications.
The purpose of this clinical study is to collect safety and performance data to support a demonstration of substantial equivalence of the Catheter Robotics Remote Catheter System to predicate devices when used to perform EP mapping of the right heart (atrium and ventricle).
Subjects will be consented to wear the AleriTM sensor prior to, during, and after an Electrophysiology Procedure. During this time, the system will measure the following parameters from subjects: HR, temperature, saline volume/rate, urine production volume, USG, BPO. Data will be retrospectively analyzed to determine if the system effectively operates under these conditions, and can effectively monitor hydration levels of subjects compared to currently available methods.
Subjects will be consented to wear the CoVa-2 monitoring system prior to (baseline), during, and after an Electrophysiology Procedure (EP). During this time, the system will measure the following parameters from subjects: heart rate (HR), Heart Rate Variability (HRV), respiration rate (RR), and Cardiac Output (CO). Data will be retrospectively analyzed to determine if the system effectively operates under these conditions, and can effectively monitor subjects and allow them to be discharged early from the hospital. Subjects will not be measured while transferred in and out of the operating room. Approximate sample size is 20 subjects.
The goal of this study is to assess the utility of virtual reality technology to aid in the mental health of patients with cardiac disease, specifically looking at decreasing anxiety and perceptions of pain from stressful procedures in the pediatric electrophysiology laboratory.
