Can a wearable device keep heart failure patients out of the hospital?
NCT ID NCT07484009
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new approach using a wearable device called ReDS to monitor fluid levels in adults hospitalized for heart failure. The goal is to see if this method reduces the risk of death, readmission, or urgent visits within a month after discharge. About 1,014 participants will be tracked, and the approach will be compared to standard care.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Hospitalized due to heart failure as the main reason, including the presence of symptoms and signs of congestion, regardless of the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). 2. NT-proBNP greater than 1000 pg/L or BNP greater than 300 pg/L upon admission. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Height less than 150 cm or greater than 190 cm or body mass index (BMI) less than 22 or greater than 39, conditions where the use of ReDS is not approved. 2. Patients requiring inotropes (levosimendan is allowed) or vasopressors upon admission, with mechanical support, or heart transplant recipients. 3. Any malformation or variant affecting the right lung anatomy (e.g., a pacemaker). 4. Patients with any heart disease requiring a planned surgical intervention (CABG, valve disease, or other) or percutaneous (TAVR, STE-ACS, mitral or tricuspid valve repair, CRT) during the clinical trial. 5. Chronic kidney disease with a GFR \<20 or on hemodialysis. 6. Life expectancy less than 12 months due to non-cardiological origin. 7. Participation in another clinical trial with intervention.
