First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 17, 2026 · Updated 21 times

Summary

This study is testing whether monitoring a blood marker called sST2 can help doctors better manage heart failure and reduce repeat hospital visits. Researchers will compare costs and quality of life between patients whose treatment is guided by sST2 levels and those receiving usual care. About 710 adults hospitalized with heart failure will take part. The goal is to see if this approach lowers costs and improves outcomes.
