About this study

Official title: 3-Month Home-based Training With Whole Body Vibration Device in Patients With Heart Failure and Preserved Ejection Fraction (GALILEO-HFpEF-HOME)

In order to evaluate Long-term effects of whole Body Vibration (wbv) in patients with HFpEF patients will get a training device to use at home for 3 months. Patients in the Intervention group will be introduced in the training program on the wbv-device in the study center 3-4 times and baseline parameters will be collected before start of the home based training. Patients randomized into the placebo arm be introduced into the training program according to the interventional arm but not performing the exercises on the wbv-device but on the floor.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Group 1 GALILEO WBV in people with Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction, run by Klinikum der Universität Köln.

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 11 inclusion and 19 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 27 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

Change in Peak Oxygen consumption (time frame: 3 months). 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Jan 2020.
