Early Assessment and Initiation of GuideLine-Directed Evidence-Based Management-HF

Study Summary

EAGLE-HF (Early Assessment and initiation of GuideLine-directed Evidence-based management-HF) is a prospective single site study of a multinational, unblinded, randomized-controlled, longitudinal trial called SYMPHONY. Primary, secondary and exploratory outcomes that are part of SYMPHONY are not described herein as they replicate SYMPHONY outcomes. Data associated with SYMPHONY outcomes will be sent to the SYMPHONY coordinating center. In EAGLE-HF, site investigators will examine if a new-onset heart failure (HF) diagnosis are asscoiated with social determinants of health (6 factors), social vulnerability index and distressed community indices. In addition, for patients diagnosed with HFrEF, prescribing patterns (use of and dose of) core HF medications will be assessed for association with physician practice type and medical provider type. Finally, (among participants in the SYMPHONY Active arm, an optimal NTproBNP cut-point will be assessed for diagnosis of HF based on social determinants of health, social vulnerability index, distressed community index, HF risk factors and medical comorbidities.

Primary Outcome

Race (a categorical variable) may be reduced to white vs. all other if other categories have too low a sample size. New-onset heart failure is based on electronic health record documentation of elevated NTproBNP and/or echocardiography results + patient symptoms.
