Prognosis Predictors for Heart Failure

April 7, 2021 updated by: Chang Gung Memorial Hospital

Looking for Prognostic Factors That Affect the Survival of Patients With Heart Failure

This study is looking for the predictors of the survival or rehospitalization of patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Participants who are discharged from an acute heart failure hospitalization are enrolled.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study is looking for the predictors of the survival or rehospitalization of patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Participants who are discharged from an acute heart failure hospitalization are enrolled. The prognostic factors provide information about the treatment of this disease in the future. This study is a retrospective observational study. Investigators will collect data from May 2014 to July 2019 in the heart failure center of Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital. A follow-up is conducted at the Kaohsiung HF center until August 2020. Investigators want to know whether the risk factors such as atrial fibrillation, diabetes, nephropathy, and some biochemical indexes can be an index that predicts future survival or rehospitalization of these patients. Besides, investigators will also explore the cardiac rehabilitation can also effectively improve the survival rate of such patients.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Observational

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
792

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

20 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Genders Eligible for Study

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

A total of 792 patients were recruited between May 2014 and July 2019 and follow-up conducted at the Kaohsiung HF center until August 2020. All patients were introduced to a multidisciplinary HF disease management program (HFDMP).

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • inpatient, age >= 20 years old, male or female
  • patient with heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction and discharged alive from the hospital
  • received heart failure disease management program

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Estimated survival time < 6 months
  • Long-term bedridden for more than 3 months
  • Cannot tolerance exercise test due to muscular-skeletal disorder
  • Cannot co-operate all functional studies
  • Ventilator dependent
  • Terminal heart status
  • The family reject to participate in this project

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
all-cause mortality
Time Frame: May, 2014 ~ August 2020
Number of participants that had occurrence of the mortality which is defined as all-cause mortality
May, 2014 ~ August 2020

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
first heart failure rehospitalization
Time Frame: May, 2014 ~ August 2020
Number of Participants That Had Occurrence of the Endpoint, Which is Defined as First Heart Failure (HF) Hospitalization
May, 2014 ~ August 2020
Change From Baseline to Month 6 and Month 12 for the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire 12 (KCCQ 12) Clinical Summary Score
Time Frame: May , 2014 ~ August 2020

Change from baseline to Month 6 and month 12 for the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire short form (KCCQ12) clinical summary score. KCCQ12 is a 12-item, self-administered instrument that quantifies physical function, symptoms (frequency, severity and recent change), social function, self-efficacy and knowledge, and quality of life. KCCQ12 clinical summary score is a composite assessment of physical limitations and total symptom scores.

Scores are transformed to a range of 0-100, in which higher scores reflect better health status.
May , 2014 ~ August 2020

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
January 1, 2010

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
June 30, 2020

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
