NCT ID NCT06039176
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at data from the HeartMate 3 heart pump to see if it can help predict problems like bleeding, infection, or frailty in people with advanced heart failure. Researchers will track 150 adults getting the pump and compare pump alarms and readings to their health over 12 months. The goal is to find patterns that could lead to better care and quality of life.
