Recruiting studies
- NCT05873634Recruiting
Using health records and testing to study heart failure types
This study combines electronic health record data and detailed heart testing to better understand different heart failure types and what treatments may work best for each. It mainly enrolls people with known heart failure, and also some people without heart failure for comparison.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 30 years+ - NCT05936957Recruiting
Heart failure care study for acute and chronic patients
This study welcomes people with heart failure (both sudden/worsening and long-term). It will check how heart failure care is managed, and it only moves forward if you choose to participate.
Ibadan, Oyo StateAges 18–100 - NCT06006819Recruiting
Acute heart failure with chronic kidney disease study
This trial studies how certain markers in the blood can predict outcomes in people with acute heart failure who also have chronic kidney disease. If you qualify, researchers will follow your health during this hospital stay.
Taipei, Baitou DistrictAges 20–90 - NCT06032780Recruiting
Exercise training for chronic heart failure
This study tests if a specific type of leg-strengthening exercise (eccentric resistance training) can help people with stable chronic heart failure feel better and move more easily. If you have heart failure and are not in an acute or very severe stage, this might be an option to improve your daily life.
Rawalpindi, Punjab ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT06061549RecruitingPhase 1
Gene therapy for stiff heart failure (preserved EF)
This trial tests a one-time gene therapy for people with heart failure who still have normal pumping strength (preserved ejection fraction). It aims to improve how heart cells handle calcium, which may help the heart relax better and ease symptoms.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 50 years+ - NCT06081205Recruiting
Heart disease patients in intensive care study
This trial observes patients admitted to the cardiac intensive care unit with acute heart or blood vessel problems. It aims to learn more about their conditions and treatments.
Ioannina, EpirusAges Any age - NCT06081543Recruiting
Ketogenic vs. Mixed Diet for Heart Failure
This study compares a ketogenic (low-carb, high-fat) diet to a standard mixed diet in people with heart failure. It aims to see if the ketogenic diet can improve heart function and symptoms.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–80 - NCT06092437Recruiting
Testing a personalized diuretic plan for acute heart failure
This trial is testing whether a diuretic (water pill) dose tailored to each patient works better for treating fluid buildup during a heart failure flare-up. It may help you get the right amount of medication faster and avoid complications.
Heerlen, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06161649Recruiting
Mobile education for heart failure patients
This trial tests a mobile education system designed to help people with heart failure learn more about their condition, build confidence in managing it, and improve their quality of life. You'll use a smartphone app to access helpful information and support.
KeelungAges 20 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+ - NCT06176131Recruiting
Telemedicine support for heart failure after hospital
This study tests a care program that uses telemedicine to help people with serious heart failure stay stable after leaving the hospital. It focuses on those who needed multiple hospital stays recently.
FrederiksbergAges Any age - NCT06205225Recruiting
Mobile health program for heart failure self-care
This study tests a mobile health program (phone app and coaching) to help people with heart failure better manage their condition at home. It aims to improve self-care and reduce hospital visits.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06253104Recruiting
Tracking muscle changes in acute heart failure
This study measures how thigh muscles change in people hospitalized with severe heart failure. It aims to understand muscle loss during this condition and how it relates to recovery.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–100 - NCT06285760Recruiting
Acetazolamide for fluid removal in acute heart failure
This study tests whether adding acetazolamide (a different type of water pill) to your current treatment helps remove extra fluid from your body more effectively when you are in the hospital for heart failure.
MadridAges Any age - NCT06286423RecruitingPhase 4
Colchicine for acute heart failure with low pumping strength
This trial tests if the anti-inflammatory drug colchicine can help people hospitalized with acute heart failure and a weak heart pump. It may benefit those with elevated inflammation markers.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06297707Recruiting
Aquatic strength training for chronic heart failure
This trial tests whether high-intensity resistance training in water can improve strength and function in people with chronic heart failure. It's designed for those who are stable on medication and not yet in a rehab program.
Cairo, DokkiAges 45–60 - NCT06299436Recruiting
Heart muscle function testing in right heart failure
This trial studies how the right side of the heart works in people with heart failure. It uses special monitoring to understand muscle function and may help doctors find better ways to treat right heart failure.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–90 - NCT06310031Recruiting
Testing BrioVAD heart pump for severe heart failure
This trial tests a new left-ventricular assist device (LVAD) called BrioVAD for people with advanced heart failure who are not getting enough benefit from medicines. If you qualify, the device is implanted to help your heart pump blood.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18–100 - NCT06062966RecruitingPhase 1
Study of anakinra for advanced heart failure on inotrope therapy
This study tests whether a drug called anakinra can improve how your heart responds to inotrope therapy (medicines that help your heart pump). It is for people with advanced heart failure who are already on a steady dose of these medicines and have signs of inflammation. The goal is to see if blocking inflammation helps your heart work better.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 21 years+ - NCT06331208Recruiting
Mechanisms of Lung Blood Vessel Problems in Heart Failure
This study looks at how heart failure affects blood vessels in the lungs. If you have heart failure with reduced pumping ability and need a heart catheterization, you may be able to join.
PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT06348498RecruitingPhase 1
Jia Shen tablets for chronic heart failure study
This trial tests a Chinese herbal tablet, Jia Shen, to see how the body processes it and if it helps people with chronic heart failure. It is for adults with weak heart pumping and stable medication use.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06349941RecruitingPhase 3
Heart failure rehab from home using video visits
This study tests whether a home-based cardiac rehab program using video visits and a smartphone app can help people with heart failure recover and feel better. It may be a good option if you have been hospitalized for heart failure recently and want to take part in rehab from home.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06397833Recruiting
Monitoring heart pressure after heart failure hospitalization
This study is testing a new wearable device (Acorai ICPM) that measures pressure inside your heart. The goal is to see if it can help predict how well you will do after being discharged from the hospital for heart failure.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for acute heart failure?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 434 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.
