DRAIN-HF Trial Summary

This trial tests a device to help chronic heart failure patients who don't respond to medicine.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for hospital-admitted adults over 21 with acute decompensated heart failure who haven't responded well to at least 48 hours of high-dose diuretics. They should have symptoms like swelling or fluid buildup despite treatment, and women must not be pregnant.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares the Aortix circulatory support device against standard medical management in patients with chronic heart failure hospitalized for acute episodes and resistant to diuretic therapy. Participants are randomly assigned to one of these two approaches.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, devices like Aortix may cause complications such as bleeding, infection at the insertion site, blood clots, or issues related to heart function.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Primary Effectiveness Endpoint: Combined composite of clinically significant reduction in net fluid loss over 7 days and freedom from mortality or heart failure re-hospitalization/therapy escalation from the baseline visit to the 30-day follow-up visit.
Primary Safety Endpoint: Incidence of Aortix Device / Procedural-Related Major Adverse Events (MAE) through 30 days of Follow-up.
Secondary outcome measures
All-cause Mortality
HF Re-Hospitalization or escalation of HF therapy
Incidence and percentages of major adverse events (MAE) Pooled

DRAIN-HF Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Treatment ArmExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Eligible ADHF patients with diuretic resistance (irrespective of ejection fraction) will be enrolled and randomized 1:1 to either the Aortix system or standard of care medical management. Randomization will be stratified by ejection fraction.
Group II: Advanced HF RegistryExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
For the Advanced HF registry, all eligible enrolled subjects will receive Aortix system support.
Group III: Control ArmActive Control1 Intervention
The Control arm should receive standard of care therapy as per the study directed Diuretic Care Treatment Algorithm.

Answered by AI

What is the aim of this clinical experiment?

"According to Procyrion, the sponsor of this study, their main objective will be measured over a Baseline-to-30 day Follow Up period. This primary endpoint is comprised of reductions in net fluid loss and freedom from mortality or heart failure rehospitalization/therapy escalation when compared with baseline assessment. Furthermore, secondary measurements such as NT-proBNP levels, Net Fluid Loss fluctuations between Days 0 and 7 (or discharge), and All Cause Mortality rate are also being monitored during the course of this research venture."
