NCT02131428

Brief Summary

Heart failure is the most costly diagnosis in the Medicare population. Clinical depression is strikingly common in heart failure patients, and not only diminishes their quality of life, but also is associated with a markedly increased risk of hospitalization or death. This study is designed to further our understanding of the behavioral and biological effects of depression in patients with heart failure, so that appropriate treatments can be developed.
