Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a public health problem: moderate / severe TR are common, especially in ageing populations, and affect 4% of the population >75 years old, totaling approximately 1.6 million in the US and 3 million in Europe. TR is associated with an ...

The clinical benefits of the dual Sodium-Glucose cotransporter (SGLT) 1 and 2-inhibition have recently been reported in two clinical trials. The SOLOIST reported the benefits of sotagliflozin in Type-2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients hospitalized for worsening of ...

The overall hypothesis is that treatment with the SGLT2 inhibitor Ertugliflozin induces a differential regulation in interstitial fluid vs plasma volume, with more reduction of the volume from the interstitial fluid than from the circulating plasma volume, which results...

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of vericiguat in participants with chronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), specifically those with symptomatic chronic HFrEF who have not had a recent hospitalization for heart ...

Leveraging a natural experiment approach, the investigators will examine rapidly changing telemedicine and in-person models of care during and after the COVID-19 crisis to determine whether certain patients could safely choose to continue telemedicine or telemedic...

The purpose of this study is to compare how two different types of care after a hospitalization reduce hospital readmissions and symptom burden. The two types of care are a Transitions of Care Coordinator and Mobile Integrated Health. In the Transitions of Care Co...

The objective of this clinical evaluation is to assess the safety and initial effectiveness of catheter-based unilateral ablation of the right greater splanchnic nerve (GSN) in subjects having heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).

Prospective, randomized, open-label, international, multi-center clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the AccuCinch Ventricular Restoration System in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).

The OPTIMIZER Smart Post-Approval Study is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, single arm open label study of 620 subjects receiving an OPTIMIZER implant as standard of care. Patients to be included will have NYHA functional class III symptoms and a left ...

The OPTIMIZER Smart Post-Approval Study is a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, single arm open label study of 620 subjects receiving an OPTIMIZER implant as standard of care. Patients to be included will have NYHA functional class III symptoms and a left ventri...

Chronic heart failure (HF) is a progressive syndrome characterized by the inability of the heart to provide adequate blood supply to meet the metabolic demand of different tissues or to be able to do so only at the expense of elevated left ventricle filling pressure. HF...

An approximately 6000-patient, randomized, unblinded, two-arm, multicenter clinical trial comparing torsemide with furosemide among patients hospitalized for heart failure. 1:1 randomization to either oral torsemide OR oral furosemide (dosing at discretion of local pr...

The study is designed to determine whether dapagliflozin is superior to placebo, when added to standard of care, in reducing the composite of CV death and HF events (hospitalisation for HF or urgent HF visit) in patients with HF and preserved systolic function. This is ...

Sotagliflozin (Sanofi code SAR439954, Lexicon code LX4211) is an orally administered small molecule, the first dual inhibitor of sodium-glucose co-transporter 1 and 2 (SGLT1 and SGLT2), formulated as 75 mg and 200 mg coated tablets. The compound, a member of the pharmac...

This is a double-blind, multicenter, prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled study to assess the effects of IV FCM compared to placebo on the 12-month rate of death, hospitalization for worsening heart failure, and the 6-month change in 6 minute walk test (6MWT) for...

This is a prospective cohort study of 1500 chronic HF patients that will also examine and describe retrospective electronic health record data. We will use the PCORnet (Patient Centered Outcomes Research Network, see "data sources" below) infrastructure to (1) identify ...

HF is a clinical syndrome marked by impaired cardiac contractility and is a final pathway for many diseases that affect the heart. HF affects over 26 million people worldwide, with more than 3.5 million people newly diagnosed every year. While several pharmacological an...

CONNECT-HF is a large-scale, pragmatic, cluster-randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effect of a customized, multifaceted, health system-level quality-improvement (QI) program compared with usual care on heart failure (HF) outcomes and HF quality-of-care metrics.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFPEF) is common and deadly but without therapy. Inconclusive studies such as TOPCAT (Treatment of Preserved Cardiac Function Heart Failure With an Aldosterone Antagonist) suggest spironolactone may be effective in HFP...

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban compared with placebo in the prevention of symptomatic venous thromboembolism (VTE) events and VTE-related death post-hospital discharge in high-risk, medically ill patients.
