Takahiro Okumura教授の研究室では、拡張型心筋症（DCM）をはじめとする心不全の予後予測や個別化医療に向けたバイオマーカー・スコアの構築を主眼としています。特に、心エコー所見や心電図所見を活用したリスクスコア開発により、左室リモデリング予測の精度を高め、臨床現場での迅速かつ簡便な意思決定支援を実現することを目的としています。また、高齢化が進むアジア諸国における心不全の予防・緩和ケアのあり方についても、予防的・予後的視点から包括的な研究を展開しています。

The LVRR predicting score using five predictors including hypertension, no family history of DCM, symptom duration <90 days, LVEF <35%, and QRS duration <116 ms can stratify the LVRR rate in patients with DCM. The LVRR predicting score may be a useful clinical tool that can be used easily at any institution.
The populations of Asian countries are expected to age rapidly in the near future, with a dramatic increase in the number of heart failure (HF) patients also anticipated. The need for palliative and end-of-life care for elderly patients with advanced HF is currently recognized in aging societies. However, palliative care and active treatment for HF are not mutually exclusive, and palliative care should be provided to reduce suffering occurring at any stage of symptomatic HF after the point of di
