Respiratory Virus Infections in Acute Heart Failure

Respiratory Virus Infections in Hospitalized Patients With Acute Heart Failure Syndrome: A Prospective Multi-center Observational Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 11 Mar 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Patients admitted to the cardiology department with acute heart failure who have a nasopharyngeal respiratory virus PCR test performed within 72 hours of admission will be enrolled in the study cohort. The detection rate of respiratory viruses including influenza virus, RSV, and coronavirus will be analysed. The investigators will also look for seasonal changes in the frequency of respiratory viruses and differences in the clinical presentation of heart failure based on respiratory virus infection.

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • If there is a clear other source of infection that can explain the fever

Lab values

  • Patients with a clear other cause of acute heart failure (ex. ACS, bradycardia requiring a pacemaker, uncontrolled tachycardia, uncontrolled severe hypertension (SBP \>180mmHg or DBP \>110mmHg), haemoglobin \<7g/dL or AHF precipitated by medication non-adherence)

Other

  • If the cause of pulmonary oedema is prominently attributed to exacerbation of CKD

Who the study is looking for

  • Adult aged 19 years or older admitted to the cardiology department with acute heart failure
  • NT-proBNP \>300 pg/mL
  • Clinician judgement of possible respiratory viral infection (fever \>38 degrees or cough, respiratory symptoms such as sputum or consolidation on x-ray or CRP \>5 mg/dL)
  • Patients who have a nasopharyngeal swab for respiratory virus PCR test performed within 72 hours of admission for any of the 3 reasons

Age in the registry: 19 years to - · Sex: All
