Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Other illness
- Patients with Class IV heart failure will also be excluded, as they are already maximally decompensated, and a ceiling/floor effect would preclude effects of stress.
- Patients with conditions other than heart failure that affect PA pressures (e.g. dialysis).
- Patients with physical conditions that interfere with study participation.
Lab values
- Patients who are unable to perform EMA or laboratory assessments due to cognitive, visual, language, or other disabilities will be excluded.
Other
- Patients non-compliant with their PAP monitoring.
- Patients with chronic opioid use will be excluded.
Who the study is looking for
