Active clinical trials for "Heart Failure"

Cognitive Intervention to Improve Memory in Heart Failure patients

The present aim is to perform at clinical double-blind placebo-controlled Cardiology Stem Cell Centre - Adipose Stem Cells (CSCC_ASC) study in heart failure patients to investigate the regenerative capacity of the CSCC_ASC treatment.

This is a study in adults with chronic heart failure. People with chronic heart failure may need to be hospitalised for their condition. Some people with chronic heart failure may eventually die from their condition. The purpose of the study is to find out whether a medicine called empagliflozin lowers the chances of patients having to go to hospital for heart failure and whether it improves their survival. The study is open to patients with a type of chronic heart failure called chronic heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Participants stay in the study until researchers have enough information about how effective empagliflozin is. It is expected that participants who enter at the very beginning of the enrolment period may be in the study for over 3 years, while participants who enter near the end of the enrolment period may be in the study for less than 2 years. The participants are put into 2 groups. It is decided by chance who gets into which group. One group gets empagliflozin tablets every day and the other group gets placebo tablets every day. Placebo tablets look like empagliflozin tablets but contain no medicine. Participants visit the doctors regularly. During these visits, the doctors collect information about the participant's health. The doctors want to know how many patients had to go to hospital because of heart failure or who died from cardiovascular disease.

The aim of the study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of empagliflozin versus placebo on top of guideline-directed medical therapy in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.

The primary purpose of this trial is to evaluate the impact of empagliflozin, as compared with placebo, on hemodynamic parameters (pulmonary artery diastolic pressure) in patients with heart failure (reduced or preserved ejection fraction, ischemic or non-ischemic etiology) who already have a CardioMEMs device (a wireless hemodynamic monitoring system) implanted for non-study related clinical reasons.

This study investigates the effects of aerobic, resistance, inspiratory training modalities outcomes in functional capacity and quality of life of heart failure (HF) patients, aiming for the 'optimum' (greek, αριστος=aristos) training program for HF patients.

This is a developmental project with two phases. The first phase will adapt an existing web-based intervention to incorporate mind-body exercises to develop a multi-modal intervention to promote physical activity in patients with COPD and HF. The second phase will pilot test this new intervention in a longitudinal study (subjects randomized to intervention or usual care).

Ketones may have beneficial effects on myocardial metabolism and hemodynamics. In the present study, healthy test subjects and patients with heart failure with reduced ejections fraction will be investigated in a randomized cross-over design with ketone infusions and placebo. Myocardial efficiency and hemodynamics will be evaluated.

The purpose of this Phase 1b/2a study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of MYK-491 in patients with stable heart failure.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of empagliflozin 10 mg versus placebo on exercise ability using the 6 minute walk test (6MWT) in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) with preserved ejection fraction (LVEF > 40%). Secondary objectives are to assess Patient-Reported Outcome (PRO)
