Trial summary

The telemonitoring systems for congestive HF did not yet prove their efficacy despite initial encouraging results. Decongestion is one of the main objectives in Congestive HF, but an appropriate titration of diuretics is warranted, since long-term use of diuretics was consistently found associated with adverse… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Home-based Assessment of Plasma Volume, Serum Potassium and Renal Function Variations in Patients With Heart Failure and Low Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction: Pilot Study BIOMIC. Biomarkers and Therapeutic Modelisation in Heart Failure

The telemonitoring systems for congestive HF did not yet prove their efficacy despite initial encouraging results. Decongestion is one of the main objectives in Congestive HF, but an appropriate titration of diuretics is warranted, since long-term use of diuretics was consistently found associated with adverse outcomes. The investigators showed (ROSSIGNOL et al., JACC 2011, Circulation 2012) that the aldosterone antagonist eplerenone has diuretic effects, as assessed by an estimated plasma volume depletion, in addition to potassium-sparing properties, independently from renal function variations. These three parameters were independently associated with patient outcomes and may therefore be potential monitoring/and therapeutic targets in patients with congestive HF.

Main objective :

Read more

To assess the variations of estimated plasma volume, serum potassium and estimated glomerular filtration rate after an hospitalization for decompensated HF, by using a home-based finger capillary punction for 5 consecutive days per week during the two months postdischarge, using an approved dedicated device (ABOTT iSTAT).

Secondary objectives :

  1. to assess the correlations between plasma volume, serum potassium and estimated glomerular filtration rate variations (as measured by Istat, and by a weekly venous punction) and body weight, home blood pressure measurement, dyspnea self assessment variations.
  2. bio banking (serum, plasma, urine) for further biomarker studies, one a weekly basis

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Blood simples, Capillary punction and Urine simples in people with Heart Failure, run by Central Hospital, Nancy, France at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Mar 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Patrick Rossignol (+33383157320, p.rossignol@chu-nancy.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01655134, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Mar 2014; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
