Clinical Trial: Comprehensive Clinical Prediction Rule for Acute Heart Failure

U.S., Aug. 11 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07754084) titled 'Comprehensive Clinical Prediction Rule for Acute Heart Failure' on Aug. 04.

Brief Summary: The goal of this prospective observational cohort study is to establish a comprehensive clinical prediction rule integrating clinical characteristics, point-of-care testing (POCT) of NT-proBNP, an 8-point LUS, and a rapid cardiac assessment using bedside echocardiography for diagnosing acute heart failure (AHF) in the emergency department.

The primary outcome measure is the adjudicated AHF di...
