Smartphone app to find best beta blocker dose for heart failure
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses a smartphone app to test how different beta blocker doses work best for you. It's for older adults with stable heart failure who want to fine-tune their treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 65 years or older.
- You have heart failure with a weakened heart pump (ejection fraction less than 50%).
- You are currently taking a beta blocker, but not at the maximum dose.
- You have a smartphone or tablet to use for the study app.
- Your condition is stable — no recent hospital stays, medication changes, or procedures in the last month.

This study looks at an “informed” approach to help manage HFpEF (a type of heart failure) in people age 65 and older. It checks whether a structured plan and monitoring are practical and safe for you over time.
This study helps older adults with heart failure gradually increase their beta-blocker dose to a level that guidelines recommend, using an approach tailored to each person.
This study uses a smartphone app to monitor your physical activity and give you personalized feedback. It may help you manage heart failure and stay active safely.
This study tests a smartphone-based program designed to help people with heart failure become more physically active. It may help you feel better and manage your condition from home.
This trial tests if a smartphone app or similar remote tools can help doctors catch early signs that heart failure is getting worse in people who have a defibrillator (ICD) or biventricular pacemaker (CRT) that sends data to the clinic. Participating helps researchers figure out if this type of check-in from home works better than standard care.
This study tests whether a wearable device that monitors your heart and transmits data to your doctor can help optimize your heart failure medications after hospitalization. The goal is to prevent future hospital visits and improve your health by keeping closer tabs on how your body responds to treatment adjustments.
