Sponsor: Massachusetts General Hospital
Conditions: Heart Failure With Normal Ejection Fraction, Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction, Heart Failure, Right Sided, Heart Failure With Mid Range Ejection Fraction, Cardiovascular Risk Factor
Countries: United States
In this single-center, longitudinal observational study, we will comprehensively examine clinical characteristics, proteomic, metabolomic, genomic and imaging data to better understand how different heart failure types may develop and progress over time. We will evaluate distinct sub-groups of heart failure (also known as heart failure phenotypes) and cardiomyopathies including amyloidosis with an ultimate goal of bringing the right medications and therapy to the right patients to optimize benefit and minimized side effects, an effort to improve precision medicine in heart failure.
