Ultrasound Guided Diuretic Therapy in Type 1 Cardiorenal Syndrome (NEEDED)

October 3, 2023 updated by: Salvador Lopez Gil, Instituto Nacional de Cardiologia Ignacio Chavez
A double-blind, randomized, controlled trial was conducted with the main objective of evaluating if patients with clinical assessment and VExUS reach decongestion faster within a maximum period of 7 days during the hospital stay. Likewise, the study will describe those patients who experience a decrease in serum creatinine (CrS), NT-proBNP at discharge, greater diuretic adjustment, rate of intrahospital readmission, and 30-day mortality.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Ultrasound Guided Treatment
Patients allocated to this will be guided (diuretic treatment) by ultrasound (VExUS) findings
Patients allocated in the experimental arm will have diuretic dosing adjusted based on ultrasound findings (VExUS Score)
Active Comparator: Clinical Guided Treatment
Patients allocated to this will be guided (diuretic treatment) by clinical congestion score (CCS) findings
Patients allocated in the experimental arm will have diuretic dosing adjusted based on clinical findings (CCS Score)
