Less invasive heart reshaping for heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a less invasive procedure to reshape the heart in people with heart failure due to a scar or aneurysm. It aims to improve heart function and symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have a scar or aneurysm in the front, top, or side wall of your heart's main pumping chamber.
- Your heart's pumping ability (ejection fraction) is less than 40%.
- You have heart failure symptoms that limit your daily activities, even with medication.
- You are willing to follow up with the study team and complete tests like a 6-minute walk and quality of life questionnaire.
- If you are a woman who could become pregnant, you agree not to become pregnant for at least one year after the procedure.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether a different pacing approach called left bundle branch pacing can improve outcomes and heart structure changes in people who did not improve with standard biventricular CRT. It may help some patients with ongoing heart failure symptoms and weak heart pumping.
This study tests a new heart implant called the Ventura IASD in people with weakened heart pumping (low ejection fraction). The goal is to see if it helps relieve symptoms and improve quality of life in patients with chronic heart failure.
This trial tests a new device called the VentriCure that helps the heart pump blood. It is for people with severe coronary artery disease and a weak heart who cannot have bypass surgery or choose not to.
This trial tests a special pacing method for people with heart failure. It aims to improve the heart's pumping by using a more natural pacing approach.
This trial tests a new device called Vsling, which is placed inside the heart to help reshape the main pumping chamber (left ventricle) in people with heart failure. It may improve your heart's strength and reduce symptoms like shortness of breath.
This trial tests a left ventricular assist system (a mechanical heart pump for the left side of the heart) in people with very severe heart failure. It may help people who are too sick or not improving despite best available medical treatment.
