Heart failure risk assessment with exercise test and kidney health
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses a special exercise test, along with heart and kidney measurements, to better predict risks for people with heart failure. It may help your doctors understand your condition and choose the best care for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old
- You have had heart failure in the past or currently, and your heart pumps less than 40% of the blood out with each beat
- You are currently stable (not in the hospital or having major symptoms)
- You have had a cardiopulmonary exercise test done before, or you will have one as part of this study

This trial tests whether a supervised exercise program can improve physical function in people who have both heart failure and kidney disease. If you join, you may get a structured workout plan supervised by professionals, which might help you feel stronger and do daily activities more easily.
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 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 study compares two types of exercise programs (neuromuscular vs. resistance training) to see which one better improves daily functioning in people with heart failure. If you join, you'll do a supervised exercise routine that may help you feel stronger and more capable in your everyday activities.
This trial studies how to better assess and manage risk in people hospitalized with heart failure or related serious heart problems. It may help by improving how clinicians monitor your condition over time and decide next steps.
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.
