This study tests a small sensor placed in a vein to help monitor and manage heart failure. The sensor tracks fluid buildup in your heart and may help doctors adjust your treatment to keep you feeling better and out of the hospital.
Chula Vista, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06595290Recruiting
Faster medication increase for heart failure with weak pumping
This trial tests a new, faster way to increase heart failure medications during a hospital stay, aiming to get patients on the right doses sooner. It is for people with weak heart pumping (ejection fraction 40% or less) who are currently in the hospital for heart failure and are on low doses of standard medications.
Long Xuyen, An GiangAges 18–75 - NCT07057323Enrolling by invitation
Coronary sinus reducer for heart failure with preserved pumping function
This trial tests a device placed in a heart vein to improve symptoms in people whose heart pumps normally but still causes shortness of breath and fatigue. The device may help relieve pressure in the heart and improve daily life.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07069738Recruiting
New pacemaker vs standard cardiac therapy for heart failure
This study tests a newer type of pacemaker that paces the heart's left bundle branch area, compared to the usual cardiac resynchronization therapy. It is for people with heart failure who need a combined pacemaker-defibrillator (CRT-D) and have a specific heart rhythm pattern (left bundle branch block) with reduced pumping strength.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05677100Recruiting
Aortix device for acute heart failure
This trial is testing a small pump placed in the aorta to help the kidneys remove extra fluid when standard IV diuretics aren't working well enough for severe heart failure. It may help you if you're hospitalized and still very congested (swollen, fluid buildup) despite strong water pills.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 21 years+ - NCT07704424Recruiting
Testing a heart pump for severe right heart failure
This trial is evaluating a new temporary heart pump called CorVad for people who develop severe right heart failure shortly after heart surgery, a heart attack, or a heart transplant. The pump is designed to help the right side of the heart pump blood when medications are not enough.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT03480633Recruiting
Heart failure precision medicine registry
This registry collects health and heart-related information to better understand heart failure (with preserved or reduced pumping strength) and guide more precise care. You may be asked to share tests and results, and help researchers learn which patterns match different types of heart failure.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07701876Recruiting
Heart failure recovery markers study
This study looks for markers in the blood that can predict whether the heart's pumping function improves in people with chronic heart failure. It may help doctors understand which treatments work best for each person.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–90 - NCT04305717Recruiting
Check fluid levels with a special sensor in hospitalized heart failure
This study uses a noninvasive device (ReDS) to estimate fluid buildup in people hospitalized with acute heart failure. It may help doctors monitor fluid status and guide care more accurately during a hospital stay.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04782232Recruiting
Study of a new blood tube for heart pump patients
This registry study checks whether a new venous blood tube used with a heart pump is safe and practical for people whose right heart is failing and who may need a heart transplant. If you qualify, your care team would monitor how the device works over time.
MunichAges Any age - NCT05265520Recruiting
Pacing strategy study for certain heart failure patients
This trial tests a pacing approach designed to improve how the heart beats in some people with heart failure and a specific heart rhythm pattern on ECG. If you already need a device (CRT-D) based on your results, the study may help see whether this pacing correction improves outcomes.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05450328RecruitingPhase 2
Breathing medicine to help heart-lung machine separation after surgery
This Phase 2 trial tests whether inhaled medicines (milrinone and epoprostenol) can make it easier to separate from the heart-lung machine during cardiac surgery. It may help reduce the risk of a difficult transition off the machine for the right patients.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT05568069Recruiting
Study of defibrillator implants for non-ischemic weak heart
This study looks at whether implantable defibrillators can reduce dangerous heart rhythms in people with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (heart weakness not caused by blocked heart arteries), a heart scar, and very low pumping strength despite best treatment. It compares different approaches to choosing which patients should receive these devices.
High Wycombe, BuckinghamshireAges 18 years+ - NCT05650658Recruiting
Compare two heart pacing options in people with weak heart function
This trial compares two types of “left-side” heart pacing to see which one works better in people with weak heart pumping. It may help guide the best pacing choice for improving heart function and symptoms.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05859048Recruiting
Care plan to help high-risk people spot heart failure early
This trial tests a multidisciplinary care approach aimed at helping people with high risk for heart failure get diagnosed earlier. It may help you catch heart failure sooner if it starts, so treatment can begin earlier.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 40 years+ - NCT05934487Recruiting
Monitoring device trial for stable heart failure symptoms
This trial tests whether a wearable home monitoring system (myCordella™) can help people with moderate heart failure (NYHA class II or III) by tracking heart pressure and supporting follow-up care. It may help detect changes earlier so clinicians can adjust treatment sooner.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06053580RecruitingPhase 2
Valsartan for pulmonary hypertension: protection study
This trial tests whether a blood pressure medicine called valsartan can help protect the lungs and heart in people with a specific type of pulmonary hypertension (Group 1 PAH). If you have PAH and are stable enough to walk 50 meters, you may be able to join.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18–80 - 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 - NCT06278844Recruiting
Pacing method to improve exercise in heart failure
This study tests a new way to pace the heart in people with heart failure who need a pacemaker. It aims to see if this pacing method helps them exercise more easily.
