Heat and Heart Failure Study
Part of Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how heat affects the body in people with stable heart failure compared to healthy volunteers. It may help researchers understand how to better manage heart failure in daily life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 45 years or older.
- You have stable heart failure (NYHA class II or III) or you are a healthy volunteer without heart disease.
