Congestive Heart Failure

Clinical Trials

Below is a list of Congestive Heart Failure clinical trials from the clinical trials database at Mayo Clinic.

This list includes only trials about which Mayo researchers choose to publish information. Mayo Clinic may be conducting other trials which are not in this database. Mayo's clinical trials include experimental treatments, often unavailable elsewhere, which frequently lead to improved patient care for people worldwide. Patients should ask their doctor at Mayo about clinical trials appropriate for their situation.

Genetic Basis of Left Ventricular Recovery in Congestive Heart Failure
