Filter by:CO-CREATION-HF aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a comprehensive and hybrid cardiac rehabilitation model compared to supervised exercise alone.
The purpose of this post-approval study (PAS) is to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of the CardioMEMS™ HF System using real-world evidence (RWE) methods.
End-stage heart failure (ESHF) causes recurrent hospitalizations, cardiac arrhythmias, and intolerance to standard HF therapies are common as the disease progresses. Management focuses on controlling symptoms, correcting precipitants, avoiding triggers, and improving quality-of-life. The combination of recent preclinical and clinical data suggests that localized cardiac RT is relatively safe and has positive conductive and anti-proliferative effects in the "sick" heart. In this Phase 1 study, the investigators aim to assess the feasibility and safety of 5 Gy whole heart radiotherapy in six (6) ESHF participants with limited options for further medical therapy to control their disease. The investigators hypothesize that 5 Gy whole heart radiotherapy can improve LVEF and decrease blood markers of heart failure and inflammation including B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), C-reactive protein (CRP), and troponins, while also having a very tolerable side effect profile.
Using the MOST framework, factorial pilot design, and an iterative, community-based process, the purpose of this study is to pilot test to further develop and refine a palliative care (PC) intervention addressing pain of Black adults (age > 18) with advanced HF. Thirty-six persons with advanced heart failure (HF) will be randomized to receive one of 16 conditions (different combinations of navigator coach-delivered PC pain intervention components).
Heart failure (HF) is a major healthcare problem. In patients with Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction (HFrEF), aldosterone antagonists reduce mortality and hospitalization rate. Gender-related differences have been described in the regulation of renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS), which is at the core of the pathophysiology of HF. Regarding gender-related differences in the use of MRAs, less is known about the effects of androgens on RAAS. In this single-center prospective cohort, a total of 100 adult (≥ 18 years) ambulatory patients of both sexes with the diagnosis of HF with HFrEF (LVEF≤ 40%) and NYHA class II-IV under optimized medical therapy started an aldosterone antagonist are enrolled and followed-up for 6 months. Patients are categorized according to their apparent sexual gender into two groups: the male group and the female group.
The Narrative Intervention for Chronic Illness-Heart Failure (NICI-HF) offers an asynchronous interactive text behavioral health intervention to advance behavioral health equity by facilitating access to care for people adjusting to living with heart failure (HF). The proposed study will recruit up to 70 people living with heart failure. This study will gain insight into living with heart failure and learn if the narrative-based intervention is feasible and acceptable for people living with heart failure. The study has two specific aims: Aim 1: Evaluate the effects of NICI-HF intervention on standard behavioral outcomes. The study investigators will review depression with the Personal Health Questionnaire-9 (primary) and anxiety with the General Anxiety Disorder-7 (secondary) outcomes, and explore self-care with the Self Care for Heart Failure Index by comparing the sham control (n=30) and NICI-HF intervention (n=30) groups at baseline, three months, and six months. Aim 2: Refine NICI-HF for feasibility and acceptability to support HF self-care and burdensome symptom management and to increase behavioral health equity by improving proximity to services. The study investigators will use the RE-AIM21 framework to tailor the intervention for HF using qualitative semi-structured interviews and mixed methods analysis. The study investigators will refine and manualize the intervention for future R01 testing across chronic illnesses with diverse and marginalized populations and service delivery models.
This is a prospective, multi-center, open label, randomized control clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of the Cordella™ Pulmonary Artery Sensor System in NYHA Class II-III Heart Failure Patients (PROACTIVE-HF-2 Trial). The study contains of 5 arms: Randomized Arm - To demonstrate safety and efficacy of the Cordella PA Sensor System in NYHA Class II HF patients. - Treatment Arm (Cohort 1) - Active Control Arm (Cohort 2) - Crossover Arm (Cohort 3) Single Arm - To demonstrate safety and efficacy of the Cordella PA Sensor System linked with a clinician-directed patient self-management strategy in NYHA Class III HF patients. - Clinician-Directed Patient Self-Management Arm (Cohort 4) - Clinician Management Arm (Cohort 5)
The goal of this observational study is to learn about SGLT2 inhibition medications in patients with symptomatic heart failure who are clinically prescribed FDA-approved SGLT2 inhibitors. The main question it aims to answer is: - What are the impacts of SGLT2 inhibition on systemic metabolomic and proteomic profiles? Participants will be asked to do the following before and after being prescribed a SGLT2i. - Six-minute walk testd - Calf MRI with plantar flexion exercise - Blood sample collection
Using a highly innovative methodology, the Multiphase Optimization Strategy (MOST), the purpose of this randomized factorial pilot trial is to identify feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of components of an intervention (UPHOLDS) to improve quality of life of older adults with advanced heart failure. Using a 2x2x2x2 factorial design, 64 adults with advanced heart failure will be randomized to receive one or more palliative care coach-delivered components, based on Ferrans' Health-Related Quality of Life Model: 1) psychoeducation on palliative care principles (4 vs. 8 sessions); 2) financial coaching (yes vs. no); 3) one-time specialty outpatient palliative care consultation (yes vs. no); and monthly follow (1 monthly follow-up call vs. monthly follow-up calls for 24 weeks).
The goal of this study is improving patient-centered communication for young people with advanced heart disease.
