Heart Failure Optimization Study
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Wearable Cardioverter Defibrillator for Sudden Cardiac Death and 3 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 602 participants across 67 sites in 4 countries.
Detailed Summary
This study is designed as a multi-center prospective observational study of newly diagnosed Heart Failure (HF) patients to test the hypothesis that additional Ejection Fraction (EF) recovery occurs between 90 and 180 days as Guideline Directed Medical Therapy (GDMT) is achieved. Although the study doesn't start until day 90, all eligible, consenting patients will be entered into a registry at the start of wearable cardioverter defibrillator (WCD) use. The pre-study registry will allow us to collect early (90 day) outcomes and data in those patients who are likely to be eligible for the study at day 90, or are eligible, but refuse the study at day 90.
