TRAnscranial Doppler CErebral Blood Flow and Cognitive IMPAIRment in Heart Failure

TRAnscranial Doppler CErebral Blood Flow and Cognitive IMPAIRment in Patients With Heart Failure and Presence/Absence of Atherosclerotic Carotid Artery Stenosis

Brief summary (registry, in English)

TRACE-IMPAIR is a prospective, clinical study of consecutive patients that evaluates the relationship between heart failure (HF) and cognitive impairment in relation to carotid and cerebral flow. The carotid and cerebral flow will be assessed using Doppler ultrasonography, and cognitive function will be estimated during routine neuropsychological tests. It is an observational, three(natural)-group, single-center study. It is also an Academic Registry - the scientific activity of the Faculty of Medicine, Collegium Medicum, Jagiellonian University, and John Paul II Hospital.

  • Previously diagnosed dementia (including severe dementia - MMSE and MoCA score \<10)

Other illness

  • Co-existing, severe, irreversible disease (e.g. advanced cancer)
  • Psychiatric condition which may influence cognitive function
  • Reversible cause of HF - tachyarrhytmic, peripartum or toxic cardiomyopathy, acute myocarditis, acute myocardial infarction
  • Cerebral stroke in the preceding 3 months

Lab values

  • Anemia with Hemoglobin \< 8 g/dl

Other

  • Acute, decompensated HF
