The aim of this mixed methods randomized controlled trial is to test the integrated nurse-led intervention bundle for family home care management of end-stage heart failure and palliative care in rural Appalachia. This intervention bundle is designed to address rural disparities in access to health care, with the help of the faith-based nurses and local volunteer visiting neighbors.
This retrospective, non-randomized cohort study will evaluate how well the Cordella PA Sensor System works compared to standard medication treatment in people with chronic heart failure. The study will track patients for two years to see if those using the Cordella system have fewer deaths and hospitalizations related to heart failure.
The purpose of this early feasibility study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the device for percutaneous shunting of the interatrial septum and improvement of heart failure related symptoms. The primary goal is to determine if the device is safe to use. The findings from this study may be used to refine the intended patient population, the design of the device, or develop a subsequent randomized study.
This is a prospective, multi-center, open label, randomized control clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of the Cordella™ Pulmonary Artery Sensor System in NYHA Class II-III Heart Failure Patients (PROACTIVE-HF-2 Trial). The study contains of 5 arms: NYHA II Cohort - To demonstrate safety and efficacy of the Cordella PA Sensor System in NYHA Class II HF patients, where patients have daily access to PAP data. * Treatment Arm (Group 1) * Active Control Arm (Group 2) * Crossover Arm (Group 3) NYHA III Cohort - To demonstrate safety and efficacy of the Cordella PA Sensor System in NYHA Class III HF patients, where patients have daily access to PAP data, including a randomized sub-study to evaluate a clinician-directed patient self-management strategy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the safety of lab-grown heart cells made from stem cells in subjects with congenital heart disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is this product safe to deliver to humans * Is the conduct of this trial feasible Participants will be asked to: * Agree to testing and monitoring before and after product administration * Receive investigational product * Agree to lifelong follow-up Researchers will compare subjects from the same pool to see if there is a difference between treated and untreated subjects.
The focus of this study is to test the efficacy of a 12-week, phone-delivered Positive Psychology-Motivational Interviewing (PP-MI) intervention, with additional twice weekly PP and health behavior text messages for a total of 24 weeks (with interactive, algorithm-driven, goal-focused text messages in the final 12 weeks), compared to an attention-matched MI-based educational condition, in a randomized trial (NIH Stage II) of 280 patients with New York Heart Association class I-III Heart Failure (HF).
The use of implantable left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) has increased over the last decade; partly because the newer continuous flow pumps feature a smaller design and better durability. These pumps have shown improved outcomes for those patients who don't qualify for heart transplantation and receive the LVAD device as a permanent therapy or a bridge to heart transplantation. Despite these improved outcomes, procedure related length of hospitalization for LVAD implantation is still 2 or 3 times that of other heart surgery treatments. One important reason for this is that many people experience right ventricular dysfunction after LVAD implantation. Treatment options for this are limited. Many LVAD patients with right ventricular dysfunction also have tricuspid valve regurgitation (TR). This is the failure of the tricuspid valve (TV) to close completely so that blood leaks backwards. Some recent studies suggest that correction of the TV during LVAD implantation has improved survival for those with severe regurgitation. However, this has not been evaluated for mild or moderate regurgitation. The goal of this study is to look at the clinical impact of surgical correction of mild to moderate TR in participants who are also undergoing LVAD implantation. The study will look at the degree of TR at various time points post-surgery, as well as any major cardiac adverse events, duration of hospitalization, and quality of life. The investigators hope to show that surgical correction of mild to moderate TR in LVAD patients will reduce right ventricular dysfunction and have a positive impact on health outcomes.
This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple dose study to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of JK07 in participants aged 18-85 with heart failure. There will be 2 cohorts in this study: Cohort 1: Heart failure (HF) participants with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of ≤ 40%. Cohort 2: Heart failure (HF) participants with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \> 40% and ≤ 65%.
