We aim to investigate whether pulsatile flow in patients subjected to CPB preserves postoperative microcirculatory perfusion by prevention of a prothrombogenic profile and endothelial activation as are both present under non-pulsatile flow…
The objective is to analyze whether a difference in reservecapacity is present between short-term and long-term PD patients. In case the reservecapacity of the peritoneum is significantly lower in the long-term compared to short-term PD patients, a…
Main study:1. Does blockade of the angiotensin II AT1-receptor improve the insulin-induced microvascular effects in hypertensive patients.2. Does blockade of the angiotensin II AT1-receptor impair the insulin-induced mi-crovascular effects in…
We aim to study the vasoactive effects of Acetylcholine (NO dependent) in hypertensive patients and normotensive participants. Second, the correlation between the vasoreactivity of Acetylcholine and Angiotensin II will be studied. Third, the…
Primary objective: The primary objective of the study is to determine the effect of oral dipyridamole treatment on the innate immune response induced by a lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge. Various pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines will be…
The objectives of the study are to assess whether:(1) SNP will reduce the occurrence of psychomimetic side effects during exposure to low-dose ketamine;(2) SNP will reduce the ketamine-induced increase in blood pressure and cardiac output;(3) SNP is…
The primary objective of this pilot study is to determine the accuracy of measurement of the new Point of Care Test (POCT) glucose meter ACI3 from Roche Diagnostics on venous, arterial and capillary whole blood samples from adult hospital patients.…
Primary objective: To evaluate local implementation, safety, feasibility and efficacy of temporary RV support with the Impella RP circulatory support deviceSecondary objective: -To evaluate the effect of temporary RV support on several clinical and…
The aim of this study is to determine the measurement accuracy of Roche Diagnostics' new Point of Care Test (POCT) glucose meter Cobas Pulse (formerly ACI3) on venous, arterial, and capillary whole blood samples from adult hospital patients…
