University Hospital is participating in a national clinical trial that will compare the benefits of drug therapies and pacemaker-like devices for treating congestive heart failure.

        Heart failure, a gradual weakening of the heart muscle, can be caused by heart disease and by a heart attack.

        University Hospital is one of 80 centers seeking a total of 2,200 patients for the study. Participants will be treated with drug therapy alone or in combinations of drug therapy and one of two devices designed to control irregular or fast heartbeats.

        For information, call 513-584-0323.
