Stage D Heart Failure Clinical Trial
— SEAL-ITOfficial title:
Safety and Efficacy of Angiotensin Receptor-neprilysin Inhibitor After Left Ventricular Assist Device ImplanT (SEAL-IT) Study
The purpose of the study is to evaluate how well tolerated and effective an angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (sacubitril-valsartan) is in patients with contemporary durable continuous flow left ventricular assist device (CF-LVAD) implantation compared to usual care oral vasodilator therapy.
