  • Simplified description (AI rewritten)
  • Technical description (Original)

This study is looking at the safety and effectiveness of a device called the **HeartMate 3 LVAS** for people with serious heart failure. Heart failure is when the heart can't pump blood well enough. In some cases, a device called a **Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD)** can help the heart pump better. This study compares using the HeartMate 3 device to regular heart medicine for patients who walk around but have a serious form of heart failure.

Participants will be monitored for elevated **pulmonary artery pressure (PAP)**, a sign that can show worsening heart failure. This is done using a small device called the **CardioMEMS PA Sensor** that measures PAP inside the body.

  • Participants must have had a hospital stay for heart failure and agree to use the CardioMEMS sensor.
  • The study will last across multiple locations with two types of participants: those getting the HeartMate 3 and those not.
  • Participants must be 18 or older and cannot have used certain heart medicines recently.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
