In patients with heart failure, diaphragm dysfunction contributes to decreased quality of life while simultaneously increasing morbidity and mortality. Inspiratory muscle weakness is observed in 30-50% of patients, with the severity of weakness increasing as the disease progresses. Patients exhibit reduced exercise capacity, peripheral and respiratory muscle strength, decreased respiratory function, increased dyspnea, fatigue, and worsened quality of life. However, it is unclear how these parameters will change in patients with inspiratory muscle weakness. Therefore, the study aimed to compare functional exercise capacity, pulmonary function, peripheral muscle strength, dyspnea, fatigue, quality of life and physical activity level in heart failure patients with and without inspiratory muscle weakness and healthy controls
This study will address whether intravenous (IV) iron repletion with a more intensive target will provide greater benefits in improving exercise capacity for patients with chronic heart failure and iron deficiency. One group of participants will receive a high-dose IV iron regimen with a more intensive target, and the other group will receive a low-dose IV iron regimen with a less intensive target.
Tne aim purpose of this observational, multicentre and propective study is to determine the prevalence of cardiac amyloidosis in geriatric patients aged 80 years and older hospitalized within the last 12 months for heart failure with left ventricular hypertrophy (septum ≥ 12 mm) on echocardiography
This study will be conducted to determine the efficacy and safety of lactoferrin versus oral iron versus lactoferrin plus oral iron as an add on therapy in reduced ejection fraction heart failure patients with iron deficiency. •Patients will be randomly distributed into the three groups - All patients will be subjected to baseline data assessment - Follow up after 12 weeks
1. The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between peripheral circulating serum soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 (sST2) levels and inflammatory biomarkers in patients with heart failure 2. Additive role of sST2 to NPs in of heart failure patients
The present longitudinal, randomized, and blinded clinical trial aims to: - Evaluate the effects of resistance training on the functional capacity, quality of life, and cardiac biomarkers of hospitalized patients with heart failure (HF) on the waiting list for heart transplantation (HTx). - Evaluate the associations between Fried's frailty classification and functional capacity responses to resistance training. The protocol will have a total duration of 12 weeks.
The purpose of the HF2 (Hemodynamic Frontiers in Heart Failure) registry is to collect relevant patient-level demographic, clinical, laboratory, and hemodynamic data from patients implanted with pulmonary artery pressure sensor at participating centers to advance scientific knowledge about ambulatory hemodynamics monitoring and HF (Heart Failure) therapies. The data collected will be used for retrospective studies, quality improvement, identifying research cohorts, and member-initiated research.
This study is open to adults aged 18 or above legal age with heart failure. People can join the study if they have heart failure symptoms and a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 40% or more. The purpose of this study is to find out whether BI 690517 in combination with empagliflozin helps people with heart failure. Participants are put into 2 groups by chance. Every participant has an equal chance of being in each group. The groups are: - BI 690517 and empagliflozin group: participants take BI 690517 and empagliflozin as tablets once a day. - Placebo and empagliflozin group: participants take placebo and empagliflozin as tablets once a day. Participants can stay in the study as long as they benefit from treatment and can tolerate it. During this time, they visit their doctors regularly. The doctors regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects. The study staff may also contact the participants by phone. Participants also regularly answer questions about their well-being. The study does not have a fixed duration. It continues until we have enough data to see if the treatment is working.
The benefit of weight loss in patients with obesity and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is controversial. Semaglutide has shown cardiovascular (CV) risk-reduction and impact on CV risk factors including overweight, dysglycaemia and hypertension in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The STEP-HFpEF (Semaglutide Treatment Effect in People With Obesity and HFpEF) recently demonstrated, at 1-year, to not only reduce weight considerably, but also significantly improve health-related quality of life, functional status scores and 6-min walk distance in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Also, the recently concluded SELECT trial was the first CV outcome trial with semaglutide in patients with overweight or obesity and established CV disease, including heart failure (but no T2D). Semaglutide demonstrated a 20% reduction in MACE, defined as the composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. These landmark findings have important implications for clinicians -as they mean that weight loss and/or semaglutide as anti-obesity pharmacotherapy could be a treatment strategy for secondary prevention of CV disease in patients with overweight or obesity. It is, however, unknown whether weight loss with either calorie-restricted diet or semaglutide has beneficial effects in obese subjects with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction. Also it is unclear whether semaglutide has cardiovascular benefits irrespective of starting weight and amount of weight loss. Purpose: The study aims to investigate whether weight loss treatment with semaglutide is superior to weight loss with calorie-restricted diet in improving peak oxygen uptake in patients with obesity and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
