Recruiting studies in Tennessee
- 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.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18–100 - NCT06153459Recruiting
Delayed cord clamping for babies with heart disease
This study looks at how long to wait before clamping the umbilical cord in babies born with a heart condition. It helps doctors understand the best timing for these newborns.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 9 months–10 months - NCT04604418Recruiting
Tracking outcomes during non-heart procedures in children with heart defects
This study looks at how children with congenital heart disease do during routine non-heart procedures, including medical or minor treatments that are not heart-related. It also measures how much health care they use afterward, which may help improve care planning for families.
Nashville, TennesseeAges Up to 21 years - NCT06526195Recruiting
A study of CardioMEMS and HeartMate 3 for advanced heart failure
This trial tests if a combination of a tiny lung-artery pressure sensor (CardioMEMS) and a mechanical heart pump (HeartMate 3) is safe and effective for people with advanced heart failure. If you qualify, you'll either get the heart pump plus standard medical therapy, or continue with standard therapy alone and have your pressure monitored remotely.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18 years+ - NCT07686341Recruiting
Precision oxygen monitor study for infants
This trial tests a new type of oxygen monitor (pulse oximeter) in babies under 1 year old. It helps doctors better track oxygen levels in critically ill infants to improve care.
Memphis, TennesseeAges birth–1 year - NCT02852031Recruiting
Care program for newborns needing the Norwood procedure
This trial focuses on improving care for babies born with certain complex heart conditions where only one pumping chamber works. It is meant for babies (including unborn babies) who are planned to have the Norwood procedure, which is a common early surgery.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Up to 1.3 years - NCT03209583Recruiting
Test of fast-pacing therapy for congenital heart rhythm issues
This trial studies whether a device-based fast pacing therapy (called ATP) can better treat certain rapid heart rhythm problems in people born with a heart condition. It may help prevent or reduce episodes of atrial (upper-chamber) arrhythmias that occur despite having a pacing/defibrillator device.
Nashville, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT05101746Enrolling by invitationPhase 2/Phase 3
Nitric oxide to protect brain and kidneys in babies during heart surgery
This trial studies whether giving nitric oxide during heart-lung bypass surgery can help protect a baby’s brain and kidneys. If you qualify, the study team will check outcomes after surgery to see if benefits happen compared with usual care.
Nashville, TennesseeAges birth–1 year - NCT04141605Enrolling by invitation
Heart transplant candidates matched for better heart preservation
This study creates a worldwide registry and information database to help improve how donor hearts are preserved for transplant. If you are a heart transplant candidate, your details may be recorded to see what matching and preservation approaches work best.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT02744677Recruiting
Pulmonary valve procedure to improve blood flow issues
This trial studies a transcatheter pulmonary valve (a valve placed through a catheter) in people whose right-sided outflow tract valve/conduit is not working well. It aims to improve blood flow and reduce pressure problems, while checking safety and results after the procedure.
Memphis, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT06479876Recruiting
Home-based heart rehab for heart failure
This study tests a home-based cardiac rehabilitation program for people with heart failure. It aims to help you become more active and manage your condition safely at home.

What taking part in a congenital heart disease study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there congenital heart disease clinical trials in Tennessee?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 11 recruiting congenital heart disease studies with a site in Tennessee, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a congenital heart disease study in Tennessee?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Tennessee to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Tennessee, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a congenital heart disease trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
