His Bundle vs Biventricular Pacing
for Heart Failure
The investigators aim to prospectively test the comparative effectiveness of His or Left bundle branch pacing in relation to patient centered outcomes (quality of life, physical activity, heart failure hospitalization, mortality) and comparative safety in relation to device-related complications and re-interventions (e.g., lead dislodgement, infection) relative to standard of care biventricular pacing in patients with heart failure due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVEF≤50%) and with either a wide QRS (≥130 ms) or with/anticipated \>40% pacing who are already receiving current standard heart failure pharmacological therapy.

Aortix Device
for Heart Failure
This trial tests a device called Aortix that helps the heart pump blood better. It targets patients with severe heart failure who don't get better with usual treatments. The device works by helping the heart move blood more efficiently.
Recruiting1 award N/A5 criteria
AccuCinch System
for Heart Failure
This trial is testing a new device called the AccuCinch Ventricular Restoration System in patients with a specific type of heart failure. The device helps the heart pump blood more effectively by supporting and reshaping its lower chamber. The study aims to see if this device, combined with standard medical treatment, is safe and effective. The CorCap Cardiac Support Device (CSD) is a predecessor that has shown safety and effectiveness in improving left ventricular structure and function in heart failure patients.
