Left ventricular failure

This trial tests a small device called the C-MIC System, which is implanted under the skin and delivers a constant low-level electrical current to the heart. The goal is to see if this microcurrent can improve heart pumping ability, exercise capacity, and quality of life in peopl…

This trial tests a device called the Corheart 6, a left ventricular assist system that helps pump blood in people with advanced left ventricular heart failure. The study includes 100 adults aged 18 to 75 with severe heart failure symptoms despite optimal medical therapy. The main…

This study tests whether using a temporary heart pump (CorVad) during a procedure to open blocked arteries (PCI) can improve outcomes for people with complex coronary artery disease and a very weak heart (ejection fraction below 35%). Half of the 452 participants will receive the…

This study tests whether quickly starting and increasing guideline-recommended heart failure medications after hospitalization improves outcomes in women. About 360 women from 13 Italian hospitals will be randomly assigned to either a high-intensity care group (rapid drug optimiz…

This study tests a new adjustable cooler for storing donor hearts during transport to the transplant hospital. The cooler aims to keep the heart at a steady temperature, reduce waste, and lower costs compared to the current standard device. About 80 adults receiving a heart trans…

Researchers are testing whether continuous heart monitoring can lower unplanned hospital visits in adults with heart failure who have never shown signs of atrial fibrillation. One group receives a small monitor implanted under the chest skin, another uses a handheld device for we…

This study tests whether a new risk algorithm (FIND HF) can better detect undiagnosed heart failure in people at risk. About 475 adults aged 40+ will have a blood test and heart ultrasound. Researchers will compare how many high-risk vs low-risk people are found to have heart pro…

Researchers are studying whether donor hearts can be safely stored and transported at 10°C using a portable cooler called the X°Port Heart Preservation System. The trial enrolls up to 25 adults who are listed for heart transplantation. Participants receive a standard heart transp…

This pilot study is testing whether wearable patch monitors can help detect heart problems early in adults undergoing treatment for breast cancer, blood cancers, or multiple myeloma. Participants will wear two patches—one that tracks heart rhythm continuously and another that rec…

This observational study will follow 50 people with severe tricuspid regurgitation (a leaky heart valve) and reduced heart function who undergo valve repair using the PASCAL Precision System. The main goal is to see if, 12 months after repair, patients can take higher doses of st…

This study looks at 600 people (400 with chronic heart failure and 200 healthy) to find patterns in genes, proteins, and gut bacteria that may predict who gets worse. Researchers will track patients for one year to see who is hospitalized or dies. The goal is to create a better r…
