Qishen granules for heart failure with preserved pumping function
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a Chinese herbal medicine called Qishen Granules for people with heart failure who still have a normal pumping ability (ejection fraction 50% or higher). It may help reduce symptoms and improve heart function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with heart failure for at least 3 months.
- Your ejection fraction (a measure of how well your heart pumps) is 50% or higher.
- You have either an enlarged heart or a recent hospitalization for heart failure.
- Your NT-proBNP level (a heart stress marker) is above a certain threshold.
- You are not taking a similar Chinese medicine and are not allergic to any of the ingredients (astragalus, salvia, black aconite).
- You are not pregnant, nursing, or planning pregnancy during the study.

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.
This trial tests whether Qishen Yiqi Dropping Pills, a traditional Chinese herbal medicine, can safely improve symptoms and heart function in people with severe pulmonary hypertension (abnormally high blood pressure in the lungs). You would take this medicine alongside or instead of other treatments to see if it helps you walk farther and feel better.
This trial tests SHengXIaN-QuYu decoction (an herbal treatment) in people with symptomatic heart failure and reduced pumping function. It looks to see whether the herbal formula is safe and helpful for heart failure symptoms and heart function.
This trial tests whether Qishen Yiqi Dripping Pills, a Chinese herbal medicine, can help people with chronic heart failure caused by coronary heart disease. It is for adults who have been on stable heart failure treatment for at least two weeks.
This trial tests if Qishenyiqi, a Chinese herbal medicine, can help your heart rebuild and work better after a heart attack. It is for people whose heart function is still weak and who have heart failure symptoms.
This trial tests whether a Chinese herbal capsule, Xinyue, can improve heart failure symptoms in people whose hearts pump normally but still have trouble (heart failure with preserved ejection fraction). It aims to see if the capsule can help reduce symptoms like shortness of breath and swelling.
