Recruiting studies
- NCT06800716Recruiting
Impella temporary pump for end-stage heart failure
This study tests whether using a temporary heart pump called Impella 5.5 can help strengthen a very weak and enlarged heart (dilated cardiomyopathy) in people who are waiting for a heart transplant. If you qualify, the pump is placed to support your heart temporarily, and the research team will check how your heart responds.
New York, New YorkAges 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 - 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 - 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+ - 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 - 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 - 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - 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+ - NCT03586336Recruiting
Remote lung fluid monitoring to guide heart failure treatment
This study tests a wearable vest that measures fluid in your lungs to help doctors adjust water-pill treatments for heart failure. It aims to reduce hospital stay and improve recovery.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 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+ - NCT03142152Recruiting
Mitral valve implant for heart failure with leaky mitral valve
This trial tests whether a device called the Carillon Mitral Contour System can help people with heart failure caused by a mild-to-moderate leaky mitral valve. You’d be compared against a control group, and the goal is to improve heart failure symptoms and outcomes.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT00762008Recruiting
Test blood markers to understand progression to heart failure
This study looks at blood “markers” (substances in the blood) to help explain how some people move from early heart strain to full heart failure. You may be enrolled if you have stable or worsening heart failure symptoms, or you may qualify as a healthy control for comparison.
Farmington, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT05486000Recruiting
Testing a device to help chronic left heart failure
This trial studies a small implant (an “atrial shunt” device) to improve symptoms and heart function in people with chronic left heart failure that stays active despite standard medicines. It focuses on whether the implant is safe and can help you feel better and possibly breathe easier.
Nantong, JiangsuAges 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+ - NCT06653725RecruitingPhase 2
Ketone supplement study for hospitalized heart failure patients
This trial tests if a ketone supplement can help people hospitalized for acute heart failure. The supplement is given orally and aims to support the heart and energy levels during recovery.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT06805253Recruiting
Heart recovery after surgery for leaky aortic valve
This trial studies how well the heart's main pumping chamber (left ventricle) recovers after surgery to fix a leaky aortic valve. It is for people who also have a leaky mitral valve and an enlarged left ventricle, and who are having their first planned valve surgery.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT05769036Recruiting
Biventricular vs left bundle pacing for heart failure outcomes
This trial compares two types of heart pacing to see which improves outcomes for people with heart failure. It may help those who need pacing to better coordinate heartbeats and relieve symptoms.
TomskAges 18–80 - NCT04405583Recruiting
Follow-up study for a heart device in heart failure patients
This study follows people with chronic heart failure to see how well an implanted device (called the Occlutech AFR) works and whether it is safe over time. It may help doctors better understand who benefits and how to manage treatment safely.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT06241651Recruiting
Comparing two types of pacemakers for heart failure patients
This trial tests if a new pacemaker method (CSP) works better than the standard method (BiVP) for people with heart failure who already have a right ventricular pacemaker and need an upgrade.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - 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+ - NCT07572955Recruiting
