ClinicaliQ Trial Snapshot
  • Utilising AI Analysis of Sounds To prEdict heaRt failurE decOmpensation — Recruiting • Cardiology / Cardiovascular • NCT06555757.
  • What is being tested: AI-powered analysis of respiratory and cardiac sounds to predict acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) before clinical deterioration occurs, potentially enabling earlier intervention.
  • Patient eligibility overview: The trial includes heart failure patients at risk of decompensation, focusing on those who may experience either gradual symptom worsening or sudden acute episodes requiring hospitalisation.

What This Trial Is Studying

Heart failure impacts more than 2% of people in the UK (United Kingdom) and leads to about 5% of emergency hospital visits. Patients might have slowly worsening symptoms or suddenly face acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), marked by intense difficulty in breathing due to fast-developing lung congestion. This is a serious emergency requiring in-hospital treatment and monitoring. Once stable, patients usually have a phase where symptoms remain constant. But as time goes on, those with heart failure often face more frequent and prolonged episodes of ADHF. Fluid build-up (pulmonary congestion)…

Eligibility Snapshot
  • : * Male or Female, aged 18 years or above. * Diagnosed with chronic stable heart failure NYHA Class 3 or 4 (either during most recent cardiology/heart failure clinic visit, or ADHF during recent/current hospitalization). * Participant is willing and able to give informed consent for participation in the study. * Participant has a smartphone device and can download a purposely designed mobile application on their phone (with guidance from the study investigators) or is willing to have sound recordings via a smartphone device loaned for the purpose of the study.
