Testing a device to treat fluid overload in heart failure
This trial studies a device (the Nephronyx System) used in the hospital to treat worsening heart failure with fluid buildup, especially when diuretics (water pills) aren’t working well. It aims to check the device’s safety and whether it performs as expected to help patients get better.
HaifaAges 18 years+ - NCT07037459RecruitingPhase 3
A study of a new drug for heart failure with obesity
This trial tests a medication called maridebart cafraglutide for people with heart failure (where the heart doesn't pump as well as it should) and obesity. The goal is to see if it can help improve symptoms and outcomes.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–99 - NCT07038356RecruitingPhase 3
Continuing empagliflozin during heart failure hospitalizations
This study tests whether continuing empagliflozin (a heart failure medicine) during a hospital stay for heart failure is beneficial compared to stopping it. Participation may help improve recovery and reduce complications.
Jena, ThuringiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06989580Recruiting
Heart failure monitoring with a wireless implant
This trial is testing a special monitor (BIOMONITOR) that tracks your heart function and sends data wirelessly to your doctor. It aims to help manage heart failure by catching early signs of trouble so you can get treatment sooner.
GenkAges 18 years+ - NCT06653725RecruitingPhase 2
Ketone supplement study for hospitalized heart failure patients
This trial tests if a ketone supplement can help people hospitalized for acute heart failure. The supplement is given orally and aims to support the heart and energy levels during recovery.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT06965504Recruiting
Heart failure medications with an Impella heart pump for cardiogenic shock
This study tests whether a special heart pump (Impella 5.5) can help patients with severe heart failure (cardiogenic shock) safely start and increase their heart failure medications. The goal is to see if this approach can help the heart recover and improve outcomes.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18–80 - NCT06921603Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided diuretics for heart failure
This trial tests whether using a bedside ultrasound to guide diuretic treatment improves outcomes in people hospitalized for worsening heart failure. It may help find the right dose of IV diuretics faster.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06898515Recruiting
Fluid removal study for acute heart failure patients
This trial tests a device designed to safely remove extra fluid from patients hospitalized with worsening heart failure. It may help those who are not responding well to standard water pills (diuretics).
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 22 years+ - NCT06868797Recruiting
Dapagliflozin for advanced heart failure patients waiting for transplant
This study tests whether dapagliflozin (a medicine already approved for other heart conditions) can help protect kidney and heart function in people with very advanced heart failure who are waiting for a heart transplant. If you qualify, you'll help researchers learn if this drug offers extra benefits beyond standard care.
BronAges 18 years+ - NCT03951467Recruiting
Health literacy support to help you follow medical advice
This study tests whether a communication tool matched to your health literacy level can improve how well people follow medical recommendations after an acute episode. It may help you understand your care plan and take the right next steps at home.

Testing IV diuretic treatment for sudden worsening heart failure
This trial studies how an IV (into-the-vein) “water pill” (furosemide/loop diuretic) works in people whose heart failure has suddenly gotten worse. It may help doctors find the best way to reduce fluid-related symptoms like breathing trouble and swelling.
Chioggia, VeneziaAges 18 years+ - NCT06656832Recruiting

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 111 recruiting acute decompensated heart failure studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a acute decompensated heart failure trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a acute decompensated heart failure trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
