Sponsor

Enrollment

50 participants

Start Date

Aug 30, 2022

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Acute Decompensated Heart Failure

Summary

This is a prospective cohort study for 50 patients admitted to the cardiac care unit requiring clinically-indicated diuretic therapy for congestive heart failure. The purpose of this study is to assess the role of non-invasive cardiac output monitoring (NICOM) with the Starling Fluid Management System (Baxter Medical, Deerfield, IL) in determining volume status in patients with acute decompensated heart failure requiring intravenous diuretic therapy.

Admission to coronary/cardiac intensive care unit or cardiac step down unit
