Clinical trials (cardiology)

The Cardiology Clinical Research Centre is dedicated in the coordination and conduct of multiple phases of multi-centred, international and national clinical trials. These include investigator initiated studies on the treatment, management and follow up care of patients with a range of chronic and acute cardiac conditions particularly severe aortic stenosis, severe mitral regurgitation, heart failure, acute coronary syndrome, conduction disturbances and hyperlipidemia. The main focus for the clinical trials being undertaken in the centre is innovative new technologies in transcatheter approach heart procedures including first-in-man research.

Cardiology Clinical Research Centre also coordinates and conducts clinical trials and investigator initiated research whilst upholding the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki in accordance with the guidelines for International Conference of Harmonisation and Good Clinical Practice. The Centre also complies with the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) 14155 for Medical Device Trials.

The majority of the Cardiology Clinical Research Centre activities are focused on patient recruitment and retention. All cardiology patients are considered potential research patients. This allows patients to have opportunity to access new therapies and devices which are only available through clinical trials.
