Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The aim of the study is to show that a significant reduction of NTproBNP can be achieved by the regular intake of magnesium orotate compared to placebo.;Secondary Objective: In addition, it is to be shown that magnesium orotate is superior to placebo over • Improve the symptoms of heart failure (weight, edema) • Improve the NYHA classification • Increase in LVEF • Improvement of symptoms as measured by the KCCQ questionnaire (Faller et al., 2005) • Reduction of hospitalization rate due to cardiac insufficiency, cardiac decompensation or myocardial infarction • Improve the patient's subjective quality of life as measured by EQ-5D-5L;Primary end point(s): Measurement of NTproBNP;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Baseline, Week 4, Week 12, Week 20, Week 24, Week 32 (EoS)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Patient questionnaires, NYHA-classification, echocardiogram;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Patient questionnaires and echocardiogram: Baseline, Week 12, Week 20, Week 32 (EoS) NYHA-classification: Baseline, Week 4, Week 12, Week 20, Week 24, Week 32 (EoS)
