Doctors look to eyes for clues about heart failure
NCT ID NCT05086978
Summary
This study is testing if a simple, non-invasive scan of the back of the eye (the retina) can help doctors understand how severe a person's heart failure is. Researchers will take pictures of the eyes of 250 people with heart failure to see if changes in the tiny blood vessels there are linked to how sick they feel and how well they can exercise. The goal is to see if this quick scan could one day be a useful tool for monitoring the disease.
