U.S., May 20 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07597512) titled 'Urinary Chloride and Sodium Changes and Residual Congestion in Acute Heart Failure' on May 13.
Brief Summary: The goal of this observational study is to learn how changes in urinary sodium and chloride levels relate to fluid overload and short-term outcomes in patients hospitalized with acute heart failure (AHF). The main questions it aims to answer are:
Do changes over time in urinary sodium and chloride reflect how well excess fluid is being removed during hospitalization? Are these changes associated with residual congestion at discharge and with the risk of worsening heart failure or death after discharge?
