NCT ID NCT07184541
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This pilot study tests a simple tool called 'Wake and Weigh' that helps older adults with heart failure track their weight daily. The goal is to see if this easy monitoring improves self-care and quality of life after leaving the hospital. Forty-two participants will be randomly assigned to use the tool or receive standard care, and researchers will measure feasibility and early effects.
