My Recordable On-Demand Audio Discharge Instructions
NCT02901314 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Non-adherence to the heart failure (HF) plan of care after hospital discharge has been associated with clinical outcomes, including the combined endpoint of all-cause mortality and rehospitalization for decompensated HF. Patients and informal caregivers receive education materials but may not act due to multiple factors. A recorded message that could be repeatedly played by patients and caregivers might increase adherence to post-discharge self-care behaviors and early follow-up appointments, and have clinical benefits related to a reduction in all-cause mortality and rehospitalization. The purposes of this randomized, controlled study are to examine the effects of use of a novel MyROAD (Recordable On-Demand Audio Discharge) card, given to patients at discharge. The aims of this single-blind, placebo-controlled study are to examine the effects of recorded messages that can be replayed post discharge (delivered via the MyROAD card) on multiple subjective and objective clinical outcomes.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT02901314
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT02901314 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 2,487 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is The Cleveland Clinic, which has 607 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Heart Failure, Congestive appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which on-demand audio messages of heart failure education themes is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT02901314 reports 4 study locations spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Ohio. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
