Heart-brain oxygen and thinking changes in heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how well your heart and brain work together to use oxygen, and how that relates to changes in thinking and memory for people with heart failure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 69 years old
- You have been diagnosed with heart failure and are currently in the hospital or being treated as an inpatient
- You do not have severe lung disease or end-stage kidney failure
- You have not had a heart attack or stroke in the last 3 months
- You have no metal implants or other reasons that would make an MRI unsafe
- You are able to cooperate with study tests and procedures

This study tests whether special breathing exercises—done alone or while doing a mental task—can improve memory and thinking skills in people with heart failure. Researchers want to see if training your breathing muscles helps your brain work better.
This trial tests whether doing a combined mental (cognitive) and physical exercise program can improve thinking and how well blood flows to the brain in people with chronic heart failure. It may help by strengthening both brain function and physical capacity while your heart condition stays stable.
This trial studies whether a noninvasive ultrasound test of blood flow in the brain, along with memory and thinking questionnaires, can help explain thinking changes in people with stable heart failure. It may help researchers better understand why some people develop cognitive (thinking) difficulties as heart failure progresses.
This study tests whether a program combining physical exercise, breathing exercises, and brain training can help men aged 50-65 who are recovering from acute heart failure. The goal is to see if this combined approach improves recovery and overall well-being.
This study tests whether combining short periods of reduced oxygen (like high-altitude breathing) with exercise can improve memory and thinking in adults aged 50-65. It may help boost brain function and overall health.
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.
