CRF2 Agonist for the Treatment of Worsening Heart Failure
This study assesses the effects of the investigational drug COR-1167 in subjects hospitalised due to worsening of heart failure (HF)
Sustaining Home Heart Failure Palliative Care in Rural Appalachia
The aim of this mixed methods randomized controlled trial is to test the integrated nurse-led intervention bundle for family home care management of end-stage heart failure and palliative care in rural Appalachia. This intervention bundle is designed to address rural disparities in access to health care, with the help of …
Effect of Vasopressin on Kidney and Cardiac Function in Septic Shock
Septic shock is a syndrome characterized by tissue hypoperfusion and hypotension secondary to an uncontrolled infection. It is a frequent cause of admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) and has an associated mortality around 40%. Around 50 % of septic shock patients exhibit early acute kidney injury and 30 …
The EMPOWER Trial - The Carillon Mitral Contour System® in Treating Heart Failure With at Least Mild FMR
The objective of this prospective, randomized, blinded clinical trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of the Carillon Mitral Contour System in treating heart failure with functional regurgitation (FMR).
Evaluation of Nurse-led Integrated Care of Complex Patients Facilitated By Telemonitoring: The SMaRT Study
In Canada, 3 out of 4 Canadians aged 65 and older have at least one chronic condition, while 1 in 4 seniors reported having three or more. Caring for complex patients who usually have multiple chronic conditions (MCC) is one of the biggest challenges facing our healthcare system. For patients, …
Ketogenic Diet vs Mixed Diet in Patients With Heart Failure
This study is being done to evaluate the effects of a low carbohydrate ketogenic diet (KD) versus a low-fat diet (MD) on exercise tolerance in participants with heart failure with normal pumping function and diabetes or pre-diabetes, or metabolic syndrome, or obesity.
Investigating a Tailored Diuretic Algorithm in Acute Heart Failure Patients
Acutely decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is highly prevalent and has a high (financial) burden on the health care system. Treatment often consists of the administration of IV decongestive agents. Adequate dosing is difficult due to varying diuretic resistance and inadequate parameters to evaluate the response. Urine sodium is a promising …
Beta-blocker Discontinuation in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
This is a prospective pilot study to evaluate changes before and 4 weeks after beta-blocker withdrawal in 30 HFpEF patients.
Pioglitazone on Heart Failure in Type-2 Diabetes Mellitus Participants

The main question it aims to answer are To demonstrate that impaired mitochondrial function leading to reduced ATP generation plays a key pathophysiologic role in the …
Renal Denervation to Treat Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction has a high mortality, which is contrasted by a total absence of therapy options besides symptomatic diuretic treatment. This study aims to explore the potential of renal denervation as a treatment option for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
