Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Does oral intake of exogenous ketone salt improve heart function measured by cardiac MRI in heart failure compared to oral intake of a carbohydrate placebo?

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Dietary Supplement: exogenous ketone salt supplement
  • Dietary Supplement: exogenous carbohydrate supplement
N/A

Detailed Description

This study will help to quantify heart and kidney ketone uptake with or without an exogenous ketone salt in heart failure condition.

Participants will have 2 different cardiac MRI to perform:
  1. Fasting with exogenous ketone salt supplement

  2. Fasting with exogenous carbohydrate supplement

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Left ventricle ejection fraction by cardiac MRI under acute intake of exogenous ketone salt compared with exogenous carbohydrate placebo in heart failure patients. [15 minutes]

    Measure by Cardiac MR in pourcentage between diastolic and systolic volume in millimeter

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Right ventricle ejection fraction by cardiac MRI after intake supplement in heart failure patients. [15 minutes]

    Measure by Cardiac MR in pourcentage between diastolic and systolic volume in millimeter

  2. Ventricle volume by cardiac MRI after intake supplement in heart failure patients. [15 minutes]

    Measure by Cardiac MR in millimeter

  3. Cardiac output by cardiac MRI after intake supplement in heart failure patients. [15 minutes]

    Measure by Cardiac MR in liter per minute

  4. Effects of supplement on serum biomarkers [60 minutes]

    Concentration of lactate (mmol/L)

  5. Effects of supplement on serum biomarkers [60 minutes]

    Concentration sodium (mEq/L)

  6. Effects of supplement on serum biomarkers [60 minutes]

    Concentration of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) (pg/ml)

  7. Effects of supplement on serum biomarkers [60 minutes]

    Concentration of Beta-Hydroxybutyrate (mmol/L)

  8. Effects of supplement on serum biomarkers [60 minutes]

    Concentration of glucose (mmol/L)

  9. Effects of supplement on serum biomarkers [60 minutes]

    Concentration of insulin (IU)

  10. Effects of supplement on the blood pressure of heart failure patients [60 minutes]

    Measure the blood pressure in systole and diastole in mm Hg

  11. Effects of supplement on the heart rate of heart failure patients [60 minutes]

    Measure the heart rate in beat per minute
