简要总结
The purpose of the study is to determine if there is a reduction in the length of stay and rates of rehospitalization for patients diagnosed with congestive heart failure when physicians are provided daily measurements of peripheral venous pressure versus no daily measurements of peripheral venous pressure.
详细描述
The objective of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of standard clinical care versus standard clinical care directed by peripheral venous pressure on length of hospital stay and incidence of rehospitalization among heart failure patients.
The study team hypothesizes that compared to standard clinical care the peripheral venous pressure-guided therapy is associated with shorter hospital stay and lesser incidence of 30-day rehospitalization. The study team will also collect data to determine if peripheral venous pressure-guided care is associated with reduced incidence of 6-month rehospitalization, improvement in symptoms or lab indices, lesser new incidence of dialysis, change in use of diuretics, and lesser use of echocardiograms.
