Active clinical trials for "Heart Failure"

The purpose of this study is to optimize the complex treatment of chronic heart failure of non-ischemic etiology by supplementing umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells to the standard drug therapy.

This is a pragmatic, non-inferiority clinical trial, enrolling heart failure patients who will be randomized to a 12-week exercise training program either centre-based or home-based with telemonitoring. The impact of this intervention will be assessed on established surrogate markers in HF such as maximal exercise capacity, plasma biomarkers and quality of life. The cost-effectiveness and overall satisfaction with the treatment will also be studied. In addition to measure the clinical and economic impact of this innovative way of delivering exercise, it is intended to unravel new molecular pathways and assess a pool of biomarkers that provide a wide mechanistic picture underlying the clinical effects of exercise.

The purpose of the study is to assess the safety of BMS-986259 in stable participants hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure.

Heart failure (HF) is one of the most important reasons for hospital admission and is associated with high mortality and morbidity. After discharge, up to 40% of patients are readmitted within 6 months and 1-year post-discharge mortality is high. The cost burden of treating patients with HF is high and ~80% of healthcare costs are related to hospital admissions. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor is considered one of the four foundational therapies (ACE-I or ARNI, beta-blockers, MRA, and SGLT2 inhibitors) for HFrEF. This is an investigator-initiated, prospective, single-centre, registry that evaluates the change in HRQL as measured by the KCCQ-TSS after the initiation of Dapagliflozin.

Objective: to evaluate the possibilities and effect of telemedicine monitoring and management of patients with CHF (compared to patients with CHF without intensive telemedicine monitoring) on quality of life, prognosis and the presence of complications and hospitalisations. Patients with a stable form of congestive heart failure will be gradually included in the study. Half of them will be defined by random selection to intervention group. Parameters, that can be measured at home will be periodically telemedical monitored. In according with at home monitored data, the own physician will be able to intervene with change of medical treatment in the case of non-physiological deviations in order to improve the health status as well as the prognosis of the patient with CHF.

STRONG-HF showed that rapid up-titration of renin-angiotensin inhibitor (RASI), beta-blocker, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) to full optimal doses within 2 weeks post-discharge from a hospital admission for acute heart failure (AHF), using frequent safety assessments, significantly reduced the 180-day risk of HF readmission or death and significantly increased 90-day quality of life regardless of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Recent evidence also suggests that initiation of angiotensin-receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) and SGLT-2 inhibitors close to the time of discharge regardless of LVEF, and iron supplementation where indicated, improve patient prognosis. In this prospective registry of patients not treated with optimal doses of oral HF medications being discharged from an admission for AHF, ROBUST-HF, data will be collected describing their post-discharge care including the management of their oral HF medications and frequency and content of post-discharge assessments and clinical outcomes through 6 months post discharge.

Heart failure (HF) in adult patients with congenital heart disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Approximately 30% of patients with significant congenital heart disease will develop signs of heart failure. Heart failure leads to hospitalization and disability with a longer hospital stay and higher health care costs as compared to heart failure patients without congenital heart disease. One-third of deaths in patients with congenital heart disease are attributable to heart failure. In patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (EF), 2021 ESC recommendations suggest the use of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) (dapaglifozin and empaglifozin), a new therapeutic class for heart failure (HF), in a class IA recommendation. In addition to reduced EF, these molecules have shown efficacy in preserved EF, leading to their reimbursement in both preserved and reduced ejection fraction in France. Unfortunately, given the relatively low number of HF-congenital heart disease, patients, they were not included in previous studies. However, the seriousness of their condition and the absence of therapeutic explain the prescription of SGLT2i in those patients and the likelihood of increased use in the future. This especially underlines the need for safety data in this real-world population. To date, no data on the safety or efficacy of SGLT2i in HF-congenital heart disease have been published. The results of this study would provide reassurance about the safety of SGLT2i in adult congenital patients and potentially expand the indication of SGLT2i in HF related to congenital heart disease The objective of this study is to assess on real-life data, through a multicenter registry: The efficacy of SGLT2i in patients with heart failure related to congenital heart disease - The indications of SGLT2i use (type of congenital heart disease) The safety of SGLT2i (collection of adverse events)

The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of this new ambulatory service model in reducing heart failure hospitalization (HHF), improving clinical as well as functional outcomes of post-discharge patients with Heart Failure of reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and Heart failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF).

The objective of this trial is to detect impact of Gliflozin on patients with heart failure due to reurgitant rheumatic valve disease

Despite significant scientific breakthrough in management, patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) remain high morbidity and mortality, with a 5-year survival rate of 25% after hospitalization for HFrEF. The autonomic nervous system (ANS), particularly the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), plays a critical compensatory role in maintaining cardiovascular homeostasis in the failing heart. This is critical given the huge unmet need for novel treatment strategies for HFrEF. Thoracic epidural anesthesia (TEA), the infusion of anesthetic agents (eg, lidocaine or ropivacaine) into the epidural space, is used to achieve sympathetic block at the T1 to T4 levels in thoracic and abdominal surgical procedures. Since 1995, Professor Liu Fengqi has pioneered the use of TEA to treat end-stage HFrEF and achieved surprising results. TEA could reduce the enlarged heart cavity, halt and reverse cardiac remodeling, and improve cardiac systolic and diastolic function. Currently, thousands of HFrEF patients have received TEA procedure. However, it is unclear whether TEA could positively impact the clinical outcomes of patients with HFrEF.
