Filter by:This study aims to increase the understanding of Hyperkalemia (HK) management, treatment patterns, and the treatment decision-making process for the management of patients with HK over a period of up to 12 months. The generation of real-world evidence (RWE) to understand the treatment management decision rationale and to prospectively describe patient characteristics, treatment management patterns among patients with HK is of importance to improve adherence to guidelines and improve patient care. The primary objective: • Describe HK management decisions, their rationale and treatment expectations. The secondary objective: • Describe baseline characteristics and longitudinal clinical variables in patients with HK. The exploratory objective: • Describe patient awareness and satisfaction with their HK treatment management across the study period.
This prospective observational research will be conducted to assess the burden of hyperkalemia including treatment and disease burden of patients in a long-term continuous care from various aspects including adherence to the medication for hyperkalemia and HR-QoLs.
The study is a multi-center prospective (primary data) non-interventional cohort study which enrolls 1500 patients including new and ongoing users on SZC at Study Enrollment Day in real-world clinical practice. The eligible study patients will be identified by physicians in each study site by assessing the patients or reviewing the medical record. The prescription (including initiation, dose-adjusting or interruption) or discontinuation of SZC will be determined by physicians as per real-world clinical practice and in accordance with the local label. Any AZ employee, or member of the research operation team must not intervene in the decision-making of any physician or patient through any approach, at any time during the study. Every patient will be followed up according to standard clinical practice for 6 months from enrolment.
The CARE-HK in HF is a registry study based on the hypothesis that adherence to guidelines is associated with improved real-world outcomes for heart failure (HF) patients. For the purpose of this study, adherence to guidelines is defined as adherence to RAASi treatment recommendations, according to the AHA/ACC and ESC guidelines. Objectives relating to patiromer effectiveness will only be evaluated if a sufficient number of patients are available. The study aims to evaluate in patients at high risk of hyperkalaemia; patients treated with ACEi/ARB/ARNi, and either treated with or candidates for treatment with MRA.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of SZC as compared with placebo in keeping potassium levels within the normal range (3.5-5.0 mEq/L) while on spironolactone ≥25 mg daily without assistance of rescue therapy for hyperkalaemia (HK).
