A Multicenter Clinical Study of Ultrasound Multimodal Imaging in the Evaluation of Heart Transplantation

Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Heart Transplant
Registration Number
NCT04974372
Lead Sponsor
Xie Mingxing
Brief Summary

The aims of this study are to 1. Assess the preoperative and postoperative atrial and ventricular structure and function comprehensively in heart transplantation; 2. Explore the early, accurately and non-invasively indicators for evaluating myocardial fibrosis in end-stage heart failure, as well detecting acute rejection (AR),coronary allograft vasculopathy(CAV) and adverse clinical events in heart transplant patients by using conventional and the advanced echocardiography.

Detailed Description

This study will enrolled 1000 HT patients and 500 healthy controls, and the cardiac structure and function will be evaluated by ultrasound multimodal imaging. And the study aimed to 1. Assess the preoperative and postoperative atrial and ventricular structure and function comprehensively in heart transplantation; 2. Explore the early, accurately and non-invasively indicators for evaluating myocardial fibrosis in end-stage heart failure, as well detecting acute rejection(AR),coronary allograft vasculopathy(CAV) and adverse clinical events in heart transplant patients by using conventional and the advanced echocardiography.
