Recruiting studies
- NCT06783166RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Comparing two medications for acute heart failure with fluid buildup
This trial tests if dapagliflozin or acetazolamide works better for people hospitalized with heart failure who have extra fluid in their body (congestion). The study will compare how well each medication helps remove fluid when used with standard IV diuretics.

Tricuspid valve repair with remote pressure monitoring
This trial tests a new way to closely monitor heart function during tricuspid valve repair or replacement. A tiny sensor is placed in your lung artery to track pressure, helping doctors adjust your care remotely.
MunichAges 18 years+ - NCT07442448Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Study of Finerenone for heart and kidney health in diabetes
This trial tests a medication called Finerenone to see if it can improve heart structure and function in people with both diabetic kidney disease and heart failure. If you have type 2 diabetes, kidney problems, and heart failure with preserved pumping function, this study may explore a new treatment option for you.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07419360Recruiting
Draining fluid from lungs in heart failure
This study tests whether draining fluid from around the lungs can help people with heart failure who are in the hospital. It looks at how this procedure affects breathing and recovery.
Albany, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06819618Recruiting
Predicting heart failure outcomes with machine learning
This trial uses machine learning to analyze data from a smartwatch to predict how heart failure progresses. It may help doctors better understand your condition and tailor treatments.
Goettigen, Lower SaxonyAges 18 years+ - NCT07400991Recruiting
Restrictive vs liberal fluids for hospitalized heart failure
This trial studies whether drinking less fluid (restrictive) vs. the usual amount (liberal) helps people hospitalized with heart failure. It aims to find out which approach leads to better recovery and fewer symptoms.
HerningAges 18 years+ - NCT07405944RecruitingPhase 4
Vericiguat for improving heart function in heart failure
This study tests a medicine called vericiguat (a pill) to see if it can improve the heart's shape and function in people with heart failure and a weakened pump. You would keep taking your usual heart medications plus the study drug.
IzolaAges 18 years+ - NCT07397650RecruitingPhase 4
Early finerenone for heart failure in hospital
This trial tests if starting finerenone early helps patients hospitalized with heart failure who have symptoms like shortness of breath or swelling. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective when given soon after admission.
Handa, Aichi-kenAges 18 years+ - NCT07372040RecruitingPhase 2
Adding a Water Pill for Heart Failure in the Hospital
This trial tests if adding a diuretic (water pill) called acetazolamide to usual care can help you get rid of extra fluid faster while you are in the hospital for worsening heart failure.
TantaAges 18 years+ - NCT06774014Recruiting
Heart failure and diabetes: cell study
This study looks at how cells talk to each other in people who have both diabetes and heart failure. It may help doctors understand these conditions better.
Leeds, West YorkshireAges 18 years+ - NCT06162247Recruiting
Registry study for heart patients in intensive care
This study tracks patients with sudden heart problems admitted to a special heart intensive care unit. It helps doctors learn more about these conditions to improve future care.
NaplesAges 18 years+ - NCT07345156Recruiting
Congestion and lactate at discharge in heart failure
This trial studies a simple test (lung ultrasound and a blood test for lactate) done right before you leave the hospital for heart failure. It aims to see if these tests help doctors know how well you are recovering and if you might need extra care after discharge.
Monastir, Monastir GovernorateAges 18 years+ - NCT07321509RecruitingPhase 4
Digoxin after a recent heart failure hospitalization
This trial tests whether digoxin, a heart medication, can help people who were recently hospitalized for heart failure with a weak heart pump. It aims to see if it improves symptoms and daily activity.
Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires F.D.Ages 18–120 - NCT07317882Enrolling by invitation
Video education program for heart failure
This trial will test a remote education program for people with heart failure. You'll get video calls and learning materials to help manage your condition from home.
Cadiz, CádizAges 18 years+ - NCT07281859Recruiting
Heart monitor alert study for new ICD patients
This study tests a heart failure alert system called HeartInsight in people who recently received an ICD or CRT-D device. The goal is to see if the alerts help doctors manage care better. You may qualify if you got a new (not replacement) device less than a year ago.
Mercogliano, AvellinoAges 18 years+ - NCT07272902Recruiting
Atrial fibrillation treatment: Ablation vs. medication
This trial compares two ways to treat atrial fibrillation in people with heart failure where the heart's pumping strength is still normal. You'll either get a procedure called ablation to restore normal rhythm or medication to control your heart rate. The goal is to see which approach works better for people like you.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07273838RecruitingPhase 2
SGLT2 inhibitor for acute heart and kidney failure
This study tests whether a medicine called an SGLT2 inhibitor (which lowers blood sugar and helps the kidneys) can improve outcomes for people with acute heart failure and kidney problems. Participation involves taking the study drug or a placebo for a short time.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–85 - NCT07263035RecruitingPhase 4
Urine sodium-guided diuretic strategy for heart failure
This trial tests a new way to adjust diuretic (water pill) doses based on urine sodium levels in patients hospitalized for worsening heart failure. The goal is to improve fluid removal and get patients home sooner.
Lakeland, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06758128Recruiting
Genes and immunity in worsening heart failure
This study looks at how your genes and immune system affect heart failure. Researchers want to understand why some people have flare-ups (exacerbations) and how the body responds.
San Giovanni Rotondo, FoggiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07252531Recruiting
BrioVAD heart pump study for advanced heart failure
This trial tests a new heart pump (BrioVAD) for people with very advanced heart failure. It aims to help those who are not getting better with standard treatments or who need extra support like IV medicines or a balloon pump.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT07251894Enrolling by invitation
Meals after heart failure hospitalization
This study provides medically tailored meals to people recently hospitalized with heart failure to see if they help recovery. It is testing whether having healthy meals delivered can improve how patients feel and reduce the chance of being readmitted to the hospital.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07243119Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Heart failure study with adenosine scans to predict recovery
This trial tests whether high-dose adenosine during a heart scan can better predict how well your heart muscle might recover, compared to standard dosing. The information could help doctors personalize treatment for people newly diagnosed with heart failure and a low ejection fraction.
HerningAges 18–100 - NCT07232030Recruiting
Barostim device for heart failure treatment
This trial tests a device called Barostim, which is implanted under the skin to stimulate nerves that help control heart failure. It's for people with mild to moderate heart failure whose symptoms are not fully controlled by medications.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 418 recruiting acute 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 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 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.
