Acorai Machine Learning Generalization (MLG) Study
United States, Belgium, Canada1,602 participantsStarted 2023-08-15
Plain-language summary
Acorai is developing a non-invasive monitoring system for the estimation of intracardiac hemodynamic parameters in patients with suspected or confirmed heart failure, and/or pulmonary hypertension, who require hemodynamic assessment. The device will be intended as a companion test or clinical decision support tool to be used and interpreted by qualified healthcare professionals to aid standard-of-care clinical assessment in identifying hemodynamic congestion and supporting personalized treatment of heart failure and pulmonary congestion.
This study is part of the development of a non-invasive monitoring system for the estimation of intracardiac hemodynamic parameters. It will be conducted to collect the data needed to train the machine learning models retrospectively.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Subject is, at least, 18 years of age at the time of screening visit.
* Subject is willing and physically able to comply with the specified evaluations as per the clinical investigation plan, as assessed by the investigator.
* Subject is referred for invasive hemodynamic assessment with right heart cardiac catheterization.
* Patient has provided written informed consent using the Ethics Committee/ Institutional Review Board approved consent form.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Discretionary exclusion when, in the opinion of the investigator, the inclusion of a potential subject is not in their best interest or not in the interest of compliant performance of the clinical investigation.
* Subjects who are pregnant are excluded in the US
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
