Prognostic and Diagnostic Value of Biomarkers and Cardiac Functional Parameters in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure

Recruiting
Conditions
Chronic Heart Failure
Interventions
Other: Observational study
Registration Number
NCT02776384
Lead Sponsor
Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine
Brief Summary

The study aims to investigate whether disease progression in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) can be assessed by new biomarkers, and determine their diagnostic value. The study also intends to describe comparison of echocardiography with cardiopulmonary function test in CHF patients, and relating these cardiac functional parameters to clinical outcome.
