About this study

Retrospective review of 492 patient from a small community hospital who did not qualify for participation in the Connect HF study sponsored by DCRI.

Read the detailed description

Retrospective review of adults above the age of 18 with a primary diagnosis of HFpEF between August 2017 and March 2018. Subjects had to fall into one of two classifications (NYHA Class II-IV or ACC/AHA Stage B-D) and had a life expectancy greater than 6 months are included. Individuals with a terminal illness other than HF, prior heart transplant or on a transplant list, or current/ planned left ventricular assist device excluded. The primary objective of this study is to identify risk factors for readmission in patients discharged with a diagnosis of HFpEF.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure and Preserved Ejection Fraction, run by Ascension Macomb-Oakland Hospital at 1 site in United States.

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 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jul 2019. 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 United States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Readmission Risk Factors and Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (time frame: August 1, 2017 though March 1, 2018). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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?
