BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT04343443Recruiting
Test whether a lung ultrasound helps discharge planning after heart failure
This study looks at people hospitalized for worsening heart failure with weaker pumping (reduced ejection fraction). It tests whether a lung ultrasound evaluation near discharge can improve how doctors decide it is safe to send you home.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT05089162Recruiting
Testing a heart ultrasound approach in chronic heart failure
This study looks at people with chronic heart failure with weaker pumping function and checks how well a lung/heart ultrasound can assess congestion (fluid buildup). If you qualify, you may help test a better way to evaluate your condition during a planned hospital visit.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT04332692Recruiting
Check if a lung ultrasound helps evaluate discharge after heart failure
This study looks at whether doing lung ultrasounds can better assess people right before they leave the hospital after an acute heart failure flare. It may help doctors decide when someone is ready for discharge and tailor care to reduce risk after leaving.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT04343430Recruiting
Hospital study for fluid buildup in heart failure with preserved heart function
This study looks at how well doctors can assess fluid buildup before you leave the hospital if you have a type of heart failure called “preserved ejection fraction.” It may help improve decisions about when and how safely people are discharged.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT05097898Recruiting
Check fluid buildup in heart failure with normal pumping
This study evaluates how well doctors can assess “fluid congestion” in people with chronic heart failure where the heart’s squeezing is still preserved. It may help improve how patients are monitored during hospital visits.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT05089149Recruiting
Check how lung ultrasound helps manage heart failure congestion
This study looks at people with long-term worsening heart failure who are coming to the hospital for a planned visit, to see how checking “congestion” (fluid buildup) may guide care. It may help the team understand whether lung ultrasound can better assess who needs treatment changes.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18 years+ - NCT06324682Recruiting
Comparing heart pacemaker types for better treatment
This trial looks at different ways to pace the heart (like left, right, or both sides) to see which works best for people who need a pacemaker. If you have a heart condition requiring a pacemaker, this study may help find the safest and most effective option for you.
Ferrara, FEAges 18 years+ - NCT04703842RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study drug effect on heart muscle calcium in advanced heart failure
This trial tests a treatment intended to improve how heart muscle cells handle calcium, which may help heart failure symptoms and heart function. It is mainly for people with advanced heart failure and a low pumping strength of the heart.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT06444321Recruiting
Integrated care for frail patients with heart failure
This trial tests a special care program for people with both frailty (being weak or vulnerable) and heart failure (when the heart doesn't pump well). The program brings together different types of support to help you manage your health better after a hospital stay.
Drammen, AkershusAges 18 years+ - NCT07820410RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Atrial shunt for heart failure with reduced pumping function
This study tests a small device that creates a tiny opening inside the heart to help lower pressure and improve symptoms in people with heart failure. The procedure is minimally invasive and aims to reduce hospitalizations and improve quality of life.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07730827Recruiting
Community program for better heart failure care
This study tests whether a program that connects you with community health workers and your care team can help you manage heart failure better. It looks at things like your living situation, medical needs, and social support to make your care more fair and personalized.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07705269Recruiting
High-rate fluid removal for fluid overload in dialysis patients
This trial tests whether a faster rate of fluid removal during dialysis can help hospitalized patients with end-stage kidney disease who have severe fluid buildup. It aims to reduce fluid congestion and improve outcomes.
Monterrey, Nuevo LeónAges 18 years+ - NCT07682298Recruiting
Measuring leftover fluid in hospitalized heart failure patients
This study looks at how well we can measure leftover fluid in the body in people hospitalized for heart failure with fluid overload. It aims to help doctors better manage treatment and improve recovery.
AarhusAges 18 years+ - NCT07671742Recruiting
Monitoring heart failure without needles in the hospital
This study tests a new device that checks your heart without needles while you are in the hospital for heart failure. It may replace some blood tests and help doctors make treatment decisions more easily.
LundAges 18 years+ - NCT06705023RecruitingPhase 2
Fat-derived cell therapy for heart failure
This study tests whether taking a small amount of your own belly fat (through liposuction), processing it, and injecting the cells back into your heart can improve heart function in people with chronic heart failure due to blocked arteries. The trial is for patients whose heart pumps weakly (ejection fraction of 40% or less) and who are already on standard medications.
AstanaAges 21–80 - NCT07601724Recruiting
How fluid buildup affects sleep apnea in heart failure
This study looks at how excess fluid in the body affects sleep apnea (pauses in breathing during sleep) in people hospitalized with heart failure. Researchers will measure sleep apnea before and after treatment to reduce the fluid, which may help doctors better manage both conditions together.
JerusalemAges 18 years+ - NCT07597512Recruiting
Fluid Loss Patterns and Heart Failure Recovery Study
This study looks at how your kidneys handle salt and water when you're treated for acute heart failure in the hospital. Researchers want to understand which patients recover well from fluid buildup and which might need different treatment approaches.
Olot, GironaAges 18 years+ - NCT07550790Recruiting
Preventing kidney injury during heart failure imaging scans
This study tests whether a specific water-based medication can prevent kidney damage when patients with acute heart failure need a CT scan with contrast dye. The trial focuses on people with mild-to-moderate kidney problems who are hospitalized for fluid buildup in the heart.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 20 years+ - NCT07484009Recruiting
ReDS-guided fluid removal for heart failure patients
This trial tests if using a wearable monitor (ReDS) to guide fluid removal helps people hospitalized for heart failure. The goal is to find the right amount of fluid to remove so patients feel better and stay out of the hospital.
Madrid, MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT07472660Recruiting
