Trial Review

Please note the ANZCTR will be unattended from Friday 20 December 2024 for the holidays. The Registry will re-open on Tuesday 7 January 2025. Submissions and updates will not be processed during that time.

Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Sampling will be conducted on consenting subjects fulfilling criteria for recruitment to attain a series of at least 300 patients with a clinical diagnosis of HF. Analytes will include hs cTnT, GDF-15, ST2, MR-proANP, MR-proADM and galectin 3. All will be compared with concurrent serial sampling for NTproBNP. Samples will be acquired at admission, 24 hours, pre-discharge and at 7, 14 and 30 days post-discharge. Events (all-cause death, readmission for HF, admission for cardiovascular cause and all–cause readmission) will be recorded over two years of follow-up.

Statistical methods / analysis
A sample size of 300 patients with ADHF will ensure a minimum of 100 deaths and over 200 readmissions for recurrent ADHF over 2 years follow-up and will allow robust testing of multi-variate predictive models including 10 or more clinical, imaging variables and candidate markers as putative independent predictive markers of the nominated outcomes of interest. The majority of analyses undertaken for this study are considered hypothesis generating. Consistent patterns of prediction and association will be identified for subsequent validation in other patient cohorts
