Assessing the Renal Consequences and Functional Efficacy of Low Dose Hypertonic Saline Solution and Furosemide for the Treatment of Congestive Heart Failure in a Randomized, Double Blind, Prospective Study
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating furosemide and hypertonic saline solution and furosemide for Congestive Heart Failure and Renal Insufficiency. Completed, enrolled 50 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare high dose furosemide in combination with low volume hypertonic saline solution (2.4%) with intermittent pulse dose furosemide in patients with pre treatment kidney function impairment. The hypothesis is that it will provide effective diuretic response and have a beneficial effect on preservation of renal function as compared to pulse furosemide in patients with pre-treatment renal impairment (GFR \< 60 mL/min).
