Recruiting studies
- NCT05490901Recruiting
Test exercise heart pressure measurements with an ultrasound
This study looks at how well two heart tests taken during exercise—direct heart pressure measurement and an ultrasound—can explain shortness of breath with activity. It may help doctors better diagnose what’s causing your symptoms.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06052072Enrolling by invitation
Heart failure trial testing nerve treatment for lung pressure
This trial tests a new treatment that uses a device to calm overactive nerves in the lung's blood vessels. It is for heart failure patients who also have high blood pressure in their lungs, to see if it can help them breathe easier and feel better.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 22–85 - NCT05919342Recruiting
Screening for early heart failure in primary care or at home
This trial tests whether simple screening using a blood test (natriuretic peptides) plus an ultrasound of the heart (echocardiogram) can find early heart failure sooner. Finding it earlier may help doctors start the right management to prevent it from getting worse.
Cleveland, OhioAges 40 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 - NCT06921603Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided diuretics for heart failure
This trial tests whether using a bedside ultrasound to guide diuretic treatment improves outcomes in people hospitalized for worsening heart failure. It may help find the right dose of IV diuretics faster.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06954792Enrolling by invitation
Studying heart changes after tricuspid valve replacement
This study looks at how the heart adjusts after a procedure to replace the tricuspid valve (the valve between the right upper and lower heart chambers). It focuses on patients who need medication to support their blood pressure within 24 hours after the procedure, to better understand and manage this unstable period.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06409585Recruiting
Heart muscle disease imaging study for scarring
This study uses advanced imaging (PET/MR or PET/CT) to look at scarring (fibrosis) in the heart muscle. It is for people with various heart muscle diseases, including heart failure with preserved pumping, thickened heart muscle, high blood pressure-related heart damage, heart inflammation, and others.
Edinburgh, ScotlandAges 30–90 - NCT05585411Recruiting
Pacemaker type test to reduce heart worsening and death risk
This study compares two pacemaker pacing strategies—left-sided “bundle branch area” pacing versus right-sided ventricular pacing. It aims to see which approach better prevents heart failure getting worse and reduces abnormal timing between heart chambers over time.
Bucheon-siAges 19 years+ - NCT07434193Recruiting
Pacing study after aortic valve replacement
This trial tests if special pacing of the heart's lower chambers (called cardiac resynchronization therapy, or CRT) can help people who develop a new electrical delay in the heart after having a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVI). The study compares two types of pacing to see which works better for recovery.
BudapestAges 18 years+ - NCT04592445Recruiting
Nerve ablation for right-sided symptoms in HFpEF heart failure
This trial tests a procedure to “turn off” the right greater splanchnic nerve to improve symptoms in people with HFpEF (heart failure with preserved pumping function). If successful, it may reduce shortness of breath and fluid congestion in daily life.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 40 years+ - NCT07416279Recruiting
Can tiny bubbles replace catheters for heart pressure checks?
This trial tests if tiny ultrasound contrast bubbles can measure heart pressure, possibly replacing the need for catheter tubes. If you're already getting a heart catheterization, you may be able to join.
LondonAges 21–81 - NCT00762333Recruiting
Blood tests after a heart attack to study heart strain markers
This study looks at blood test “markers” soon after an acute heart attack, to better understand heart damage and whether heart failure is present. It may help doctors improve how they monitor recovery and risk in people after a heart attack.
Farmington, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT06218199RecruitingPhase 4
Diuretics vs. blood pressure meds for HeartLogic alerts
This trial compares two treatments—diuretics (water pills) and a blood pressure medication called sacubitril/valsartan—to see which works better when your heart device sends an alert. It's for people with a Boston Scientific heart device that has HeartLogic alerting turned on.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 19 years+ - NCT06052475Recruiting
Pacemaker upgrade study for heart failure
This trial is for people with a standard pacemaker that stimulates the right ventricle most of the time. It tests whether a newer type of pacemaker (CRT) can improve heart function and symptoms. If you have a weakened heart (LVEF between 35-50%) and your heart failure has gotten worse, this study may be a good fit.
CambridgeAges 18 years+ - NCT06384963Recruiting
Pacing after bypass for heart failure patients
This trial tests a special pacing therapy that uses your natural breathing rhythm to improve heart function after coronary artery bypass surgery. It may help people with weak heart muscles recover better after surgery.
Adelaide, South AustraliaAges 22 years+ - NCT07601867Recruiting
Dapagliflozin to improve heart function after bypass surgery
This trial tests whether a diabetes medication called dapagliflozin can help improve how well the right side of your heart works after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (a way to reroute blood around blocked heart arteries). The goal is to see if this drug reduces strain on your heart during recovery.
Pyatigorsk, Stavropol KrayAges 18 years+ - NCT07034599Recruiting
Negative pressure breathing after heart pump implant
This study looks at how a breathing machine that uses negative pressure (like a vacuum) affects the heart and blood flow in people who have a left ventricular assist device (LVAD), a type of heart pump. It may help doctors learn the best way to support breathing after surgery.
KarlsburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06610019Recruiting
Heart imaging study using MRI
This study uses heart MRI scans to learn more about cardiovascular health in adults. If you are 18 or older and have been referred for a heart MRI at Montefiore, you may be able to join.
The Bronx, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04913805RecruitingPhase 2
Study for HFpEF using heart pressure and energy signals
This Phase 2 study tests how matching heart “filling pressure” and heart muscle “energy use” may improve understanding or treatment of HFpEF, a type of heart failure with preserved pumping strength. You may be asked to have heart scans/tests and follow a study plan if your symptoms and test results fit.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05138575RecruitingPhase 2
Testing SGLT2 pill and potassium nitrate for heart failure with preserved EF
This trial studies whether two medicines—an SGLT2 inhibitor and potassium nitrate—can improve symptoms and heart function in people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). It focuses on people who still have signs of “stiff” or high filling pressure in the heart despite a normal-ish ejection fraction.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07270536Recruiting
Pacing and heart pressure in HFpEF exercise
This study tests whether a special pacing setting during exercise can help improve heart filling pressures in people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) who already have a DDD pacemaker. If you have HFpEF and a pacemaker, you may help researchers find better ways to manage your condition during activity.
HasseltAges 18 years+ - NCT03954574Recruiting
Check blood flow changes in lungs during exercise testing
This study measures how blood moves through your lungs and heart while you exercise, using standard heart-lung pressure measurements. It may help doctors better understand unexplained breathing trouble or suspected pulmonary hypertension and improve how testing and care are guided.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06169540Recruiting
Saliva test for heart failure diagnosis
This study tests whether a simple saliva sample can detect certain molecules (lncRNAs) that might help diagnose heart failure. It looks at two types of heart failure: chronic stable heart failure and acute decompensated heart failure, and compares them to people without heart failure who are having a heart procedure.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07293923Recruiting
Magenta Elevate™ study for cardiogenic shock
This trial tests a new heart pump called the Magenta Elevate™ to help people whose heart suddenly stops pumping enough blood (cardiogenic shock). It aims to improve blood flow and reduce strain on the heart.
