Patient-Executed, Clinician-Confirmed Diuretic Titration in Pulmonary Artery Pressure-Guided Heart Failure (SURPASS-HF)
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Heart Failure
In brief
SURPASS-HF was a 90-day, single-center, single-arm, prospective feasibility study asking whether adults with heart failure and an implanted pulmonary artery (PA) pressure sensor can safely share in managing their own diuretic (water pill) dosing. Participants were already implanted with a CardioMEMS PA pressure sensor and managed by a single cardiovascular team using a previously published hemodynamic treatment algorithm. Each participant received a simplified treatment guide (sliding scale) prescribing how to adjust diuretic doses based on their own PA pressure readings, which were relayed to them daily through the Epic MyChart patient portal. Protocol-mandated laboratory testing followed each diuretic adjustment. The study measured safety (hospitalizations, urgent visits, kidney injury, syncope, electrolyte disturbances) and effectiveness (heart failure hospitalizations, average PA diastolic pressure, and how often the care team needed to intervene) over 90 days, with quality of life assessed by the Minnesota Heart Failure Questionnaire. A separate retrospective chart-review cohort of 31 CardioMEMS patients served as a comparison group.
