Diuretic Optimal Strategy Evaluation in Acute Heart Failure (The DOSE-AHF Study)
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Furosemide-Q12 hour bolus, Furosemide-Continuous Infusion, and 2 other interventions for Heart Failure. Completed, enrolled 308 participants across 9 sites in 2 countries.
Detailed Summary
Heart failure is a disorder in which the heart does not pump blood adequately. This can lead to several serious problems, including reduced blood flow throughout the body, congestion of blood in the veins and lungs, and fluid accumulation in various organs and limbs. Diuretics are often used to address the problem of fluid accumulation, but the optimal dose and the amount of time over which to administer each dose are unclear. This study will compare high and low doses of diuretics administered over longer and shorter periods of time to determine the safest and most effective combination.
