Filter by:The P-VALUE-AHF trial is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-group trial on the diuretic and decongestive effects of different diuretic escalation strategies in patients with acute heart failure and diuretic resistance. The main aims are - to compare the diuretic efficacy of three therapeutic strategies in patients with acute heart failure and diuretic resistance. - to assess the improvement in clinical congestion and to compare the symptom-relief among the different treatment regimens
This pragmatic clinical trial aims to evaluate the impact of a telemonitoring program with an electronic alert system compared to standard treatment on the perception of self-care in patients after hospitalization for decompensated HF at 3 months post-discharge. And secondarily to evaluate its impact on clinical events, NT-proBNP and efficacy and safety to facilitate the use and titration of the recommended drugs in patients with reduced ejection fraction at 90 days.
This study will address whether the additional use of Ferric Derisomaltose on top of standard care will improve exercise capacity and quality of life in patients with acute heart failure and iron deficiency. One group of participants will receive treatment with Ferric Derisomaltose and the other group will receive normal saline 0.9% as placebo.
The aim of the study is to compare the differences in diuretic, natriuretic and clinical response to decongestion in patients receiving different replacement fluid regimens (0.9% sodium chloride vs 5% glucose) in acute heart failure.
Evaluate the impact the application of the MESSI-AHF scale (a risk stratification scale specifically derived and validated in patients diagnosed with acute heart failure, AHF) in decision making (admission vs. discharge) by emergency physicians in emergency departments (ED) and its potential impact on on the short-term prognosis of patients with AHF.
This is a multicenter, parallel-group, randomized, open-label, controlled trial. Patients with a diagnosis of acute heart failure (AHF) in the emergency department (ED) or after emergency presentation to hospital will be screened and informed of the study. After signed consent, patients will be randomized into the control group (usual AHF treatment) or intervention group (usual AHF treatment + prednisone). Prednisone will be given for 7 days. Patients will be assessed at days 2, 4 or at discharge if earlier, and at day 7 at hospital visit. If the patient has been discharged before day 7, a follow-up visit will be scheduled at day 7 for endpoints assessment followed by a scheduled hospital visit at day 31 and a telephone follow-up at day 91. Study drug will be dispensed for the patient to take home until day 7.
prognostic value of delta LUS score of patients hospitalized for acute heart failure within 30 days of discharge.
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.
STERO-AHF is a pilot, prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label, controlled study aimed to evaluate the diuretic efficacy and early clinical benefit of corticosteroid therapy administered for 7 days, in addition to standard therapy, in patients hospitalized for acute heart failure (AHF) and with evidence of insufficient diuretic response. Eligible patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either standard-of-care alone (control group) or standard-of-care plus corticosteroid therapy (experimental group) for up to 7 days. Patients will be followed to 30 days.
In this prospective validation study, researchers investigates accuracy of EHMRG (Emergency Heart Failure Mortality Risk Grade) score in predicting the 7th and 30th day risk of mortality in patients with acute heart failure who applying to the emergency department.
