DART-HA Study: HeartLogic Alerts in Heart Failure

This study, called DART-HA, is looking at how well different standard treatments work for people with congestive heart failure (CHF) who have a Boston Scientific device with HeartLogic enabled. HeartLogic is a feature that can detect early signs of worsening heart failure. If your device shows an alert but you don't have new symptoms, you might be offered observation, or treatment with diuretics (like Furosemide, Torsemide, or Bumetanide) or afterload reduction medications (like sacubitril/valsartan or Hydralazine). The study wants to see how many participants' HeartLogic alerts return to normal within 30, 60, or 90 days. You can join if you are 19 or older, have a Boston Scientific device with HeartLogic, and don't have certain medical conditions that would prevent you from taking sacubitril/valsartan. The current status of this study is unclear.

Study design
This is a single-center, open-label study where participants will be randomly assigned to observation or one of two standard treatments. It plans to enroll 80 participants.
What's involved
Not specified in the trial record.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be followed to assess recovery from HeartLogic Alert at 30, 60, and 90 days.
