Care plan to help high-risk people spot heart failure early
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be age 40 or older
- Be able to understand and sign informed consent
- Have at least two heart-failure risk factors (like diabetes, atrial fibrillation, prior stroke, coronary artery disease, peripheral artery disease, chronic kidney disease, long-term water pill use, or COPD)
- Do not already have a diagnosis of heart failure
- Not be on kidney replacement therapy (dialysis or similar)

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.
This trial is testing a simple screening tool to find early signs of heart failure in people aged 50 or older, especially those with risk factors like diabetes or high blood pressure. If you're at risk, this could help catch heart problems sooner.
This trial checks for early signs of heart failure in people who have multiple risk factors. It will use blood tests, a wearable device, and a handheld ultrasound to find any changes early, so treatment can start quickly.
This study is testing a way to catch heart failure earlier by using a simple blood test (NT-proBNP) in primary care. If you have symptoms that might be heart failure, this test could help your doctor diagnose it sooner so you can get the right treatment.
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.
This study looks for people who may be developing heart failure early, using heart imaging and related checks. If you fit the risk pattern, the results may help find heart failure sooner in similar people.
