Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to better understand blood volume status and whether knowledge of it can change and improve heart failure care.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to better understand measurements of various parameters of congestion, the most significant of which is blood volume analysis. Blood volume analysis (BVA) measures how much blood is in the investigator's arteries and veins and is performed by using an IV and injecting a small amount of a radioactive material (I 131-labeled albumin). The study also involves blood tests, urine tests, blood pressure monitoring, an ultrasound, and measurement of lung fluid volume (by way of a vest). There will also be a 30-day follow-up phone call to assess symptoms and discuss any changes in medication.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Receive Blood Volume Analysis Guided Treatment

The health care team will be provided with BVA results and may use the information to make decisions regarding the participant's treatment.

Device: Receive Blood Volume Analysis Guided Treatment
The health care team will be given the results of the blood volume analysis along with guidance on how to provide treatment based on the analysis
Other Names:
  • Daxor BVA-100
  • No Intervention: Receive Standard of Care Treatment

    The health care team will not be provided with the BVA results. The participant will receive the same treatment they would have received if they weren't in the study.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change in plasma and whole blood volume [Baseline, and upon discharge (up to day 5)]

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change in congestion metrics as measured with a clinical congestion score (pulmonary edema, jugular venous pressure, lower extremity edema and PND) [Baseline, day 1, day 2, day 3 and discharge (up to day 5)]

      Comparison of baseline to follow up times

    2. Change in mean NTpro-BNP concentration (in pg/mL) [Baseline, day 1, day 2, day 3 and discharge (up to day 5)]

      Comparison of baseline to follow up times

    3. Change in weight (in kg) [Baseline, day 1, day 2, day 3 and discharge (up to day 5)]

      Comparison of baseline to follow up times

    4. Change in renal function as measured by creatinine (mg/dL) [Baseline, day 1, day 2, day 3 and discharge (up to day 5)]

      Comparison of baseline to follow up times

    5. Change in renal function as measured by blood urea nitrogen (mg/dL) [Baseline, day 1, day 2, day 3 and discharge (up to day 5)]

      Comparison of baseline to follow up times

    6. Change in renal function as measured by an estimated glomerular filtration rate (mL/min/ 1.73m2) [Baseline, day 1, day 2, day 3 and discharge (up to day 5)]

      Comparison of baseline to follow up times

    7. Change in pulmonary congestion as measured using non-invasive diagnostic technology such as the ReDS vest (radiofrequency) or bio-impedance based technologies (unitless values) [Baseline, day 1, day 2, day 3 and discharge (up to day 5)]

      Comparison of baseline to follow up times
