Testing a new way to measure fitness during heart tests
Part of Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study is testing a new method to estimate your fitness level from the results of standard heart tests you may already be getting. It aims to provide useful information to help your care team understand your heart and lung health better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are already scheduled for or receiving a standard heart test, like a cardiopulmonary exercise test or an echocardiogram.
- You are willing to follow the study procedures and available for the full study period.
- You are willing to sign a consent form to take part.
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or within 30 days after giving birth.
- You do not have a pacemaker that is always pacing your heart, and you do not have a Barostim device or similar electrical device.
- You do not have complex congenital heart disease (unless it is a simple type with normal function), and you do not have allergies to adhesives.

This study tests a new computer program that automatically analyzes cardiopulmonary exercise tests (CPET)—tests that measure how your heart, lungs, and muscles work during exercise. Researchers want to make sure the computer's interpretations are accurate and helpful for doctors worldwide.
This study compares two devices that measure how well your lungs and heart work during exercise. It may help researchers find a simpler or more accurate way to monitor your fitness and breathing.
This study looks for blood and other markers that can explain how people with heart failure respond to exercise training. It may help researchers better tailor exercise or treatment plans for heart failure in the future.
This trial tests a new device that measures heart function without needing an invasive catheter. It aims to see if the device works as well as the standard right heart catheterization procedure.
This study tests whether a CardioPulmonary Management (CPM) system device used at home is safe and can improve outcomes for people with chronic heart failure. It may help manage symptoms and reduce complications, especially for higher-risk patients.
This study looks at how your heart and lungs work during exercise by using a special test called a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET). Researchers will follow you for up to five years to see how your health changes. It may help you understand your heart condition better and get more personalized care.
