Observational Study for Decompensated Congestive Heart Failure Using a Wearable Device
This study is looking for people with chronic heart failure that has worsened (decompensated chronic heart failure, or dCHF). It aims to find out if a wearable ring device can predict when your heart failure might get worse. You would wear a special ring that continuously collects data like your heart rate, sleep, and activity. Researchers will compare this data with information from your existing heart monitor to see if there are patterns that signal a future worsening of heart failure. The goal is to develop a mathematical tool to help predict these events. This study is for adults aged 18 and older who already use a heart monitor and have a smartphone.
- Study design
- This is an observational study involving 60 participants. It is designed to develop a mathematical algorithm to predict heart failure decompensation.
- What's involved
- You would wear a wearable ring device continuously for up to 12 months. You may also choose to provide optional biospecimen (DNA, blood, urine) and weekly voice samples.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Participants will be followed for a minimum of 6 months and up to 12 months, with primary endpoints measured at up to 12 months.

What this trial measures
- Changes in multiple physiologic parameters from baseline that correlate with onset of dCHFUp to 12 Months
Identification of reproducible changes in wearable physiologic data that occur in the 1-7 days preceding a hemodynamic monitoring device detection of elevated pulmonary artery pressure sustained over 2 days defined as a sentinel event of decompensated CHF.
