Dual heart pump support for severe heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a device that helps both sides of the heart pump blood for people with very weak heart function. It may be an option if you have severe heart failure that isn't improving with standard treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 75 years old.
- Your heart is too weak to pump enough blood, or you need medications to keep your blood pressure up.
- You have severe heart failure that affects both sides of your heart.
- You meet specific heart-function measurements (like low pumping strength or high pressures in the heart).
- You do not have certain other serious conditions (e.g., recent stroke, severe lung or kidney disease).

This study tests a new type of heart pump (the DuoCor 2) designed to support both the left and right sides of the heart. The pump is implanted during surgery and may help people with very advanced heart failure feel better and live longer.
This trial is studying a non-surgical (conservative) treatment approach for people being considered for a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). It may help some patients who are too sick or unable to tolerate standard heart failure medicines, but it will only match people with specific heart function and health-test results.
This trial tests a new left ventricular assist device (LVAD) for people with advanced heart failure who are not responding to standard treatments and are eligible for a heart transplant. The pump helps the heart circulate blood.
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.
This study is testing a heart pump device for people with very advanced heart failure. It's for patients who are very sick and haven't improved with standard treatments. The study will see if this pump is safe and effective.
This trial is evaluating a new temporary heart pump called CorVad for people who develop severe right heart failure shortly after heart surgery, a heart attack, or a heart transplant. The pump is designed to help the right side of the heart pump blood when medications are not enough.
