About this study
In plain language
This study tests a way to find patients with type 2 diabetes who are at high risk for heart failure, when the heart does not pump blood well. It uses a risk score, a blood marker called NT-proBNP, and a tool to help guide care to prevent heart failure. The study enrolls primary care providers who see patients with diabetes.
A pragmatic, randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effect of a heart failure (HF) risk assessment and prevention strategy incorporating HF clinical risk scores (WATCH-DM) with cardiac biomarker (NT-proBNP) paired with a clinical decision support tool to implement an intensive prevention strategy among patients with high risk focused on implementation of evidence-based HF preventive therapies.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
