What this Trial Is About

Researchers are studying heart failure through the Swedish national heart failure quality registry called SwedeHF, which started in 2003. This registry is the largest continuous heart failure database globally, including over 140,000 entries from more than 110,000 patients across 70 hospitals in Sweden. The study aims to understand how genetic factors and various biomarkers relate to patients' responses to heart failure treatments and disease progression. University hospitals in Sweden with biobanking capabilities will collect blood plasma, whole blood, and urine samples linked to the SwedeHF registry. These samples allow detailed genetic, proteomic, and metabolomic analyses to identify new biomarkers and investigate differences between patients who respond or do not respond to guideline-directed medical therapy. The study will follow patients over 2 and 5 years to assess treatment response, morbidity, and mortality. Participants will be part of an observational study where their clinical data and biological samples are collected and analyzed. Researchers will measure outcomes such as treatment response, morbidity, and mortality over time. The study involves ongoing data entry into the SwedeHF registry and biobank sample collection. Participation includes consent and registration, with safety and ability to participate assessed by investigators. The study will continue until the end of 2030.
