Trial summary

Heart failure is currently not only a major medical but also a socio-economic problem. Its prevalence is estimated at 1-2% of the population with an exponential increase in older age groups. A very important part of the treatment of heart failure is the gradual uptitration of therapy to the maximum tolerated doses. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: SHAPES Advanced Telemonitoring of Patients With Heart Failure in Home Environment

Heart failure is currently not only a major medical but also a socio-economic problem. Its prevalence is estimated at 1-2% of the population with an exponential increase in older age groups. A very important part of the treatment of heart failure is the gradual uptitration of therapy to the maximum tolerated doses. Properly conducted therapy titration requires more frequent patient contact. Thanks to the introduction of telemedicine techniques, the investigators can communicate more effectively with the patient, reach the target doses of heart failure medication faster and subsequently reduce the number of hospitalizations due to worsening of heart failure.

This study investigates effect of advanced telemonitoring of patients with heart failure in home environment.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MedimonitorDevice

    A digital solution consisting of smartphone/tablet based application gathering data from medical and other devices provided to the patients. These devices are as follows: tablet, smartwatch, mobile ECG, blood pressure monitor, weight scales, pulse oximetry device.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Evaluation of the effect of step telemonitoring during uptitration of heart failure medication.

    Uptitration of therapy guided by data from the medical and other devices (tablet with smartwatch providing data from the pedometer, i.e. number of steps) provided to the patients with heart failure in home environment.

    Measured: 3 month

  2. Evaluation of the effect of ECG telemonitoring during uptitration of heart failure medication.

    Uptitration of therapy guided by data from medical and other devices (tablet with mobile ECG) provided to the patients with heart failure in home environment.

    Measured: 3 month

  3. Evaluation of the effect of blood pressure telemonitoring during uptitration of heart failure medication.

    Uptitration of therapy guided by data from medical and other devices (tablet and blood pressure monitor recording systolic and diastolic blood pressure) provided to the patients with heart failure in home environment.

    Measured: 3 month

  4. Evaluation of the effect of body weight telemonitoring during uptitration of heart failure medication.

    Uptitration of therapy guided by data from medical and other devices (tablet and diagnostic weight scales for monitoring weight in kilograms) provided to the patients with heart failure in home environment.

    Measured: 3 month

  5. Evaluation of the effect of body water telemonitoring during uptitration of heart failure medication.

    Uptitration of therapy guided by data from medical and other devices (tablet and diagnostic weight scales for monitoring body water percentage) provided to the patients with heart failure in home environment.

    Measured: 3 month

  6. Evaluation of the effect of blood oxygen saturation telemonitoring during uptitration of heart failure medication.

    Uptitration of therapy guided by data from medical and other devices (tablet and pulse oximetry device to monitor blood oxygen saturation in percents) provided to the patients with heart failure in home environment.

    Measured: 3 month

  7. Evaluation of changes of NTproBNP levels at the beginning vs. at the end of the study.

    Evaluation of changes of NTproBNPlevels as a marker of effective therapy of heart failure.

    Measured: 3 month

  8. Evaluation of changes in LVEF echocardiographic parameter at the beginning vs. at the end of study.

    Assessment of the effect of heart failure therapy (left ventricular reverse remodelation) by evaluation of changes in LVEF echocardiographic parameter

    Measured: 3 month

  9. Evaluation of changes in LVEDD echocardiographic parameter at the beginning vs. at the end of study.

    Assessment of the effect of heart failure therapy (left ventricular reverse remodelation) by evaluation of changes in LVEDD echocardiographic parameter

    Measured: 3 month

  10. Evaluation of changes in LVESD echocardiographic parameter at the beginning vs. at the end of study.

    Assessment of the effect of heart failure therapy (left ventricular reverse remodelation) by evaluation of changes in LVESD echocardiographic parameter

    Measured: 3 month

  11. Evaluation of changes in LAVi echocardiographic parameter at the beginning vs. at the end of study.

    Assessment of the effect of heart failure therapy (left ventricular reverse remodelation) by evaluation of changes in LAVi echocardiographic parameter

    Measured: 3 month

  12. Evaluation of changes in diastolic dysfunction by echocardiography at the beginning vs. at the end of study.

    Assessment of the effect of heart failure therapy (left ventricular reverse remodelation) by evaluation of changes in diastolic dysfunction.

    Measured: 3 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure, run by University Hospital Olomouc at 1 site in Czechia.

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 1 inclusion and 10 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 29 Jan 2024. 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 Czechia. 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?

Evaluation of the effect of step telemonitoring during uptitration of heart failure medication. (time frame: 3 month). The study lists 12 primary outcomes in all. 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 29 Jan 2024.
