The Effect of a Smartphone-assisted Hybrid Cardiac Rehabilitation Program in Patients With Heart Failure.
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the impact of a case manager-led smartphone-assisted hybrid cardiac rehabilitation program with usual care in patients with HF. Participants will undergo a 12-week program led by a case manager and assisted by a smartphone. The study aims to answer two …
SOCIAL_HF: Improving Social Frailty Through Interactive Learning
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether the WeChat-based program "Social Optimization Chat for Interactive Learning for Heart Failure" (SOCIAL\_HF) can improve social frailty in elderly patients with heart failure. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can a 6-week WeChat online group interactive learning program …
Monitoring Oedema in Heart Failure to Improve Function and Reduce Hospitalisation Risk
This study will evaluate the Heartfelt device, a novel, passive monitoring system that detects early signs of fluid build-up in patients (oedema) with heart failure by measuring changes in foot and lower leg volume through capture of 3D images. The trial will assess whether this device, when added to standard …
Effect of Acetazolamide on Diuresis and Natriuresis in Patients With Acute Heart Failure (SANDI STUDY)
The goal of this observational study is to assess the natriuretic effect of intravenous acetazolamide in patients admitted with heart failure and persistent congestion despite treatment with intravenous furosemide and sodium-glucose cotransporter type 2 (iSGLT2) inhibitors. The main question it aims to answer is whether there is a difference in …
A Study to Evaluate Breathing Muscle Training in Cardiac Rehab
The purpose of this study is to understand if breathing muscle training combined with cardiac rehabilitation influences the blood flow and blood pressure response during exercise.
Web-based Support to Caregivers in Heart Failure
Caregivers of people with heart failure experience a lack of support from health care in their caring role. They often want to become more involved in care, receive education and have the opportunity to share experiences with other caregivers. Objectives and hypothesis: Our hypothesis is that an internet-based support program …
Intensive Education Versus Usual Education of Patients for Improving Guideline Directed Medical Therapy (GDMT) Prescription in Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to test the effect of patient education on extent of use of guideline directed medical treatment (GDMT) of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. The main question that our study aims to answer is if patient education can improve the adherence to …
Efficacy of LoDoCo in Improving Exercise Capacity Among Patients With HFpEF and Inflammation
The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness of low dose colchicine (LoDoCo) on measures of exercise capacity, physical function, frailty, and quality of life, among patients with heart failure with chronic stable preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and systemic inflammation. The use of LoDoCo in this study …
Modulation of SERCA2a of Intra-myocytic Calcium Trafficking in Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction
It is believed that targeted SERCA2a enzyme replacement in HFrEF patients will correct defective intracellular Ca2+ hemostasis, resulting in improved cardiac contractile function and energetics which will, in turn, translate to improved clinical outcomes. Additionally, it is hypothesized that correcting SERCA2a dysfunction will also improve coronary blood flow through correction …
Bioimpedance Integration for Optimized Fluid Management in Decompensated Heart Failure
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether using Bioimpedance Analysis (BIA) can help manage fluid levels in patients with heart failure who are admitted to the hospital with worsening symptoms. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does BIA-guided fluid management reduce the need for extra …
