First seen May 11, 2026 · Last updated May 21, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at whether measuring certain substances in the blood (biomarkers) can help doctors decide the best time to discharge patients hospitalized with worsening heart failure. About 750 participants will be randomly assigned to either standard care or a discharge plan guided by their biomarker levels. The goal is to see if the biomarker-guided approach reduces hospital stays and improves outcomes over the first 30 days and 6 months after discharge.
