Treatment ID:TR000625
Treatment Summary:We will focus initially on patients with classic systolic HF who are admitted to St Mary’s Hospital with decompensated disease. These patients are currently being studied to quantify changes in lung water during the “recompensation” diuresis in the hospital and the related changes in alveolar gas conductance and breathing pattern to develop a predictive algorithm for likelihood of readmission, but also to obtain a better understanding of fluid regulation in the lungs. As these subjects are recruited, we will recruit age and sex matched stable HF patients going through similar testing in parallel running studies as well as age and sex matched control subjects. We will target 12 subjects per group and in addition to the EBC collection we will obtain saliva samples and blood at the same time points.
