New smart scale could help heart failure patients stay out of hospital
NCT ID NCT07205120
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a smart scale and online system to help manage fluid levels in people with heart failure. Fifty adults recently hospitalized for heart failure will use the scale at home, and their doctors will get alerts if fluid levels rise. The goal is to see if this remote monitoring can help doctors adjust treatment early and prevent another hospital stay.

Active substance
Cardiac Scale and Congestion Index monitoring system
What this could lead to
If it works, this could help doctors remotely manage heart failure patients' fluid levels, potentially reducing hospital readmissions.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early pilot study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to all heart failure patients. The intervention is not a treatment for the disease itself.
