About this study

Official title: Hemodynamic Testing Strategies to Assess Pulmonary Hypertension and Right Ventricular Function in Heart Failure Patients

The goal of this observational study is to learn about heart function and high lung blood pressure in patients with heart failure. The main question[s] it aims to answer are whether we can improve the ability to predict patients who will have complications after they receive treatment including heart transplant and left ventricular assist devices.

Read the detailed description

Prospective cohort study of patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction that are referred for diagnostic right heart catheterization as part of their evaluation for candidacy for advanced heart failure therapies.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure, run by Mount Sinai Hospital, Canada at 1 site in Canada.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 5 Jan 2023. 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 Canada. 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 Susanna Mak, MD PhD (4165864800 ext. 5554, susanna.mak@sinaihealth.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mean pulmonary artery pressure (time frame: First study 1 day visit). The study lists 3 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 5 Jan 2023.
