Routine Magnesium Testing and Supplementation in Acute Heart Failure (MAG-HF) (MAG-HF)
Routine Magnesium Testing and Supplementation in Acute Heart Failure (MAG-HF): a Pragmatic Randomized Controlled Trial
This study is an investigator-initiated, pragmatic, randomized controlled feasibility trial evaluating two strategies for magnesium management in adults hospitalized with acute heart failure (AHF). Participants will be randomized to either a strategy of no routine magnesium testing or intravenous (IV) supplementation, or a strategy of routine magnesium testing with IV supplementation according to standard of care.
The primary objective is to determine the feasibility of conducting a definitive, multi-centre trial by assessing recruitment, consent, intervention adherence, and completeness of follow-up over a 30-day period. We plan to recruit 260 participants across two centres over approximately 24 months.
In addition to feasibility outcomes, clinical event rates will be evaluated to inform the design of a future definitive trial. These include all-cause death, all-cause hospital readmission, and heart failure readmission within 30 days of randomization, capturing events both during the index hospitalization and after discharge. In-hospital outcomes will include arrhythmia, symptomatic hypotension, serious adverse events, intensive care unit admission, and length of stay. Health-related quality of life will be assessed using the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) at protocol-defined timepoints.
This trial is conducted within the HEART platform, a master protocol designed to evaluate multiple interventions in heart failure using a shared infrastructure.

详细说明
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a common cause of hospitalization and is associated with high rates of morbidity and rehospitalization. Magnesium abnormalities are frequently observed in hospitalized patients, and intravenous magnesium supplementation is commonly used in clinical practice despite limited evidence supporting routine testing and replacement strategies in this population. Variation in practice patterns exists, and the clinical impact of routine magnesium testing and supplementation in AHF remains uncertain.
The MAG-HF trial is an investigator-initiated, pragmatic, randomized controlled feasibility trial designed to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a definitive multi-centre trial comparing two strategies for magnesium management in adults hospitalized with AHF. Participants will be randomized to either a strategy of no routine magnesium testing or intravenous (IV) supplementation, or to a strategy of routine magnesium testing with IV supplementation according to standard of care. The study is conducted within the HEART platform, which provides a shared infrastructure to evaluate multiple interventions in heart failure.
The primary objective is to assess feasibility, including recruitment rates, consent rates, intervention adherence, and completeness of follow-up over 30 days. The study will enroll 260 participants across two centres over approximately 24 months.
In addition to feasibility outcomes, the trial will evaluate clinical event rates to inform the design of a future definitive study. Clinical outcomes assessed within 30 days of randomization will include all-cause death, all-cause hospital readmission, and heart failure readmission, capturing events both during the index hospitalization and after discharge. In-hospital outcomes during the index admission will include clinically significant arrhythmias, symptomatic hypotension, serious adverse events, intensive care unit admission, and length of hospital stay. Health-related quality of life will be assessed using the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) at protocol-defined timepoints.
This feasibility trial is not powered to assess treatment effectiveness. Instead, the results will be used to inform the design, sample size, and operational considerations of a future definitive randomized controlled trial evaluating magnesium management strategies in AHF.

描述
Inclusion Criteria:
- Adults aged ≥ 18 years admitted to hospital with a clinical diagnosis of suspected or confirmed AHF and with an elevated serum natriuretic peptide level on presentation will be eligible.
- Elevated natriuretic peptide levels are defined as a B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level of 400 pg/ml or higher; or a N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) level of 1000 pg/mL or higher.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Adults with an admission diagnosis other than AHF, presence of a pre-specified indication for magnesium supplementation on presentation (specified below), or having other medical conditions which, in the investigator's judgement, would make participation unsafe will be ineligible.
- Torsades de pointes
- Severe (< 3.0) or recurrent hypokalemia (< 3.5 x 2+ readings)
- Pre-eclampsia or eclampsia
- Severe asthma exacerbations
- Hypomagnesemia (< 0.70 mmol/L) within seven days of randomization. (Clarification Magnesium testing is not required to confirm hypomagnesemia).
- Concurrent enrolment will not automatically exclude a participant. Co-enrolment will be permitted only where allowed by both domain protocols and where the interventions and operational requirements are judged compatible. No washout is required after completion of a non-conflicting domain intervention.
