PRO-HF Trial Summary

This trial is testing whether collecting a standardized questionnaire on heart failure health status during clinic visits affects patient outcomes and clinician decision-making.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients who visit the Stanford Heart Failure clinic during the enrollment period. It's not open to those seen in the amyloid clinic.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if using a health-related quality of life survey, called Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-12, affects patient outcomes and clinician decisions when given routinely at heart failure clinic visits.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves completing a questionnaire rather than taking medication or undergoing medical procedures, there are no direct physical side effects associated with participating.

PRO-HF Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Routine Collection of Patient-Reported Health Status (KCCQ-12 Arm)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients in the KCCQ-12 arm will undergo KCCQ-12 assessment of patient-reported heart failure health status in the electronic health record at each heart failure clinic visit beginning at the start of the trial. Assessment results will be available to clinicians in the electronic health record when making treatment decisions during each clinic visit.
Group II: Usual CareActive Control1 Intervention
Patients in the usual care arm will not complete KCCQ-12 assessments in the electronic health record with clinic visits. They will complete a KCCQ-12 assessment at baseline that will not be available to the treating clinician.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What aims does this experiment seek to realize?

"This trial's primary outcome, which will be assessed at least a year after enrolment or via telephone interview 15 months later, is to measure patient response rates as indicated by the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire-12. Secondary outcomes include finding the median dose of beta blocker therapy among those with reduced ejection fraction; locating the median dosage for mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist amongst patients with low left ventricular ejection fractions; and identifying average hydralazine/nitrate dosages prescribed to African American participants suffering from lower than normal levels of heart output."

Answered by AI

Is there still availability for potential participants in this research trial?

"The clinicaltrials.gov site shows that this particular trial, with its initial postdate on August 30th 2021 and most recent edit on September 27th 2022, is not recruiting participants at the moment. Despite this, there are over 700 other trials which require patient participation currently."
