Heart Failure IDentification in a High Risk Cardiovascular OutpatiEnt Population (HIDE)

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Heart Failure

• Registration Number: NCT04143919
• Lead Sponsor: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

Brief Summary

This is a pilot, multicenter, real-world, single-visit, low risk, phase IV interventional study to efficiently identify new cases of heart failure (HF) Stage C in subjects who are at risk of cardiovascular (CV) disease in high-volume ambulatory primary care settings in 3 countries in Central America.

Detailed Description

Subjects with 2 or more CV risk factors will be identified and will undergo an NYHA score assessment. If the NYHA score is ≥ II, the serum NT-proBNP concentration will be determined on-site on the same day. If the serum NT proBNP concentration is ≥ 125 pg/mL, the subject will be referred to a country specific central echocardiography laboratory for a transthoracic echocardiogram to measure the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and relevant structural heart disease.
