Condition: Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction · Remote Monitoring in Heart Failure · Sponsor: Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg
The goal of this clinical trial (MAGIC-HF) is to understand whether daily remote monitoring of pulmonary artery pressure using the CardioMEMS™ device and body water levels using a smart scale can improve the management of congestion in people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Participants who already have an indication for remote monitoring with CardioMEMS™ (A sensor to be implanted in the pulmonary artery in a minimal invasive procedure) will be enrolled. Every day, patients will measure their pulmonary pressure using CardioMEMS and assess the amount of water in different parts of the body, including the arms, legs, and trunk using the scale BWA ON. The measurements will take about 2 minutes each. Over a period of six months, researchers will monitor these measurements along with regular blood tests to observe changes in heart and kidney function by monitoring biomarkers reflecting the function of these organs. Managing fluid buildup (congestion) is a major challenge in people with heart failure, and current methods based on clinical signs are not always reliable. Recent research suggests that congestion in heart failure is not only related to pressure but also to changes in fluid volume, and that better monitoring could help tailor treatments more effectively. By combining pressure and volume data, this study aims to help reach a more balanced fluid state (euvolemia) in participants, which could reduce hospital readmissions and improve overall ou…
