Studies blood flow and heart pumping in adults with heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how well blood moves through the body and how strongly the left side of the heart pumps in adults. It compares people who have heart failure to people who do not, to better understand differences and possible causes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study uses a computer program (deep learning) to automatically analyze heart ultrasound images and pressure data, aiming to improve how we measure heart function in people with heart failure. It will compare results from heart failure patients and healthy volunteers to see if the automated method works well.
This study looks at people having a right heart catheterization to learn more about heart function. It is observational, meaning no treatments are given—it just gathers information that might help improve care.
This study looks at how the heart muscle works in people with a type of heart failure where the heart pumps normally but doesn't fill properly. It aims to understand the cause better, which could lead to new treatments.
This study looks at how stiff your arteries are and how well your blood vessels work in people with heart failure. It might help doctors understand heart failure better and find new ways to treat it.
This study looks at how blood flows inside your heart while you have a HeartMate 3 heart pump. It aims to understand your heart’s pumping function and may help doctors improve care for people with heart pumps.
This study uses simple heart tests and blood markers to sort people with chronic heart failure into different risk levels, which may help guide treatment. You may join if you have heart failure symptoms and certain test findings.
