CKD-Heart: Heart Failure Prediction in Asian CKD Patients

Prognostic Modeling of Heart Failure Risk in a Large-Scale Asian Cohort With Chronic Kidney Disease: The CKD-Heart Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 Apr 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Among patients with known chronic kidney disease (CKD) who are free from diagnosed heart failure (HF), some may be classified as stage A-B HF based on the contemporary 2022 ACC/AHA Guideline for Heart Failure Classification. Several key clinical features and risk factors have been shown to serve as predictors for future HF development. Importantly, compared to white populations, Asians may present with distinct HF risks even when exhibiting the same conventional clinical risk factors for CKD. Our current study aimed to explore the clinical predictors of HF and adverse cardiovascular events among CKD patients in a pre-clinical HF stage (Stage A-B) within a large ethnic Asian population. We further investigated whether baseline characteristics from echocardiography, ECG, and urine protein measurements could provide additional prognostic insights on future events. Addressing this knowledge gap for such a population may facilitate early identification and timely interventions for CKD patients of Asian ethnicity in the early stages of the disease.
