Trial summary

Heart failure (HF) is a major cardiovascular disease with high readmission and mortality rate. A wearable device that could remotely monitor and detect the worsening HF early before the symptoms appear will help reduce HF readmissions effectively. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Clinical Translational Research of Novel Wearable Device Based on Patented Sensing Technology in Non-Invasive Management of Heart Failure

Heart failure (HF) is a major cardiovascular disease with high readmission and mortality rate. A wearable device that could remotely monitor and detect the worsening HF early before the symptoms appear will help reduce HF readmissions effectively. The purpose of the current study is to examine the efficiency of a novel wearable device based on flexible strain sensor comparing to the clinical 'gold standard,' and then transform it into a clinical application.

Read the detailed description

The prospective cohort study aims to examine the efficiency of a novel wearable device based on a flexible strain sensor to improve the outcomes of patients with HF compared to the standard-of-care without wearable device monitoring.

The primary and secondary endpoints will be examined in subgroups determined by baseline variables reflecting demography,NYHA functional class,left ventricular ejection fraction,natriuretic peptide,additional co-morbidities,and others.

Control groupNo interventionPatients receive a standard of care for heart failure without a wearable device.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of Hospital Readmissions for Heart Failure

    Total hospitalizations for heart failure will be monitored via follow-up.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Concordance of the Jugular Vein Pressure with the RHC Measurement

    Accuracy of jugular vein pressure measurements by the novel wearable device compared to right heart catheterization.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  2. Change From Baseline N-terminal Pro-brain Natriuretic Peptide(NT-proBNP) or Brain Natriuretic Peptide(BNP)

    Change from baseline to 6 months in N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) or Brain Natriuretic Peptide(BNP). NT-proBNP/BNP level will be measured using commercial kits system during the follow-up period. Change from baseline was defined as the value of NT-proBNP/BNP at 6 months minus the baseline value. Baseline value was defined as the mean of all available measurements from the screening visit.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  3. Change in Exercise Capacity as Measured by the 6-Minutes-Walking-Test (6MWT) Distance.

    Change from baseline to 6 months in exercise capacity as measured by the distance walked in 6 minutes in standardised conditions.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  4. Compliance Percentage of Patients

    Patient adherence to daily measurement and transmission of sensor readings will be recorded.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  5. Change in Quality of Life

    Quality of life will be measured with the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) answered by the patients directly on a patient application.KCCQ is a 23-item, self-administered instrument that quantifies physical function, symptoms (frequency, severity and recent change), social function, self-efficacy and knowledge, and quality of life. The KCCQ total symptom score incorporates the symptom domains into a single score. Scores are transformed to a range of 0-100, in which higher scores reflect better health status.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  6. Change in New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class.

    NYHA class will be evaluated according to the patients' clinical characteristics during the follow-up.NYHA Functional Classification places patients in one of four categories based on how much they are limited during physical activity; Class I being best and Class IV being the worst functional class. Class I has no limitation to physical activity, Class II has slight limitation to physical activity, Class III has marked limitation of physical activity, and Class IV is unable to carry out any physical activity without severe discomfort.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

  7. Freedom From a Device/System-related Complication

    Device/System-related Complications refer to adverse events such as device failure and allergy.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing novel wearable device in people with Heart Failure, run by China-Japan Friendship Hospital.

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 5 inclusion and 9 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 8 Feb 2023. 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?

Contact Di Sun, Dr. (010-84206809, sundi0929@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of Hospital Readmissions for Heart Failure (time frame: Up to 6 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 8 Feb 2023.
