简要总结
Dynamic variations of bio-impedance measured cardiac output using non pharmacologic intervention (sitting position, passive leg rising and valsalva maneuver) could be used to detect acute heart failure in patients admitted to the ED for dyspnea.
详细描述
Acute heart failure (AHF) is a frequent condition in emergency basis and is responsible of a big number of admissions, complications, and deaths.
despite advances in diagnostic techniques, AHF diagnosis still difficult and cost not effective.
Measurement of cardiac output (CO) is used as a way to evaluate global cardiac function and changes in CO may be used to identify a change in the hemodynamic status of a patient.
the gold standard of measuring CO is thermodilution catheterization, however this is an invasive technique that poses a risk to the patient.
Impedance cardiography (ICG) is a noninvasive method for measuring CO. it is performed by applying small electrical current to the chest, and through electrodes placed on the neck and sides.

结局指标
主要结局
Cardiac output rate measured by ICG before and during maneuvers in acute dyspneic patients between the AHF and non AHF groups
时间窗: 12 hours
The diagnostic performance of each maneuver is evaluated by calculating the CO in ml/min by bio-impedance technique and compare the values between patients with and without AHF and between baseline. The diagnosis of AHF is based on clinical, biological (BNP levels), radiological (chest X-ray) and cardiac ultrasound data.
次要结局
- In hospital death(up to 10 days)
