Who this trial is looking for

This trial is looking for people over 17 years old who have been hospitalized for heart failure. Participants will wear an Apple Watch that will collect health data to help predict heart failure-related issues.

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?

You may be able to join if

  • I am over 17 years old
  • I have heart failure with reduced ejection fraction
  • I have been hospitalized for heart failure
  • I have a blood marker level over 1000
  • I am willing to participate
  • I have at least one clinical sign, like swelling or fluid buildup

You may not be able to join if

  • I have a life expectancy of less than 6 months due to non-heart-related conditions
  • I cannot use a smartwatch
  • I have severe heart valve problems

About This Trial
In this monocentric observational study the research question is to what extent data collected via Apple Watch can predict the heart failure status of decompensated HF patients. For this purpose, physiological data from the Apple Watch (such as single-lead electrocardiogram, SpO2, respiratory rate, step count, nighttime temperature, etc.) will be extracted and used as predictor variables to foreca…
