First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 24 times
Summary
This study looked at how giving a special form of chloride (without sodium) affects fluid levels and kidney function in 20 people with stable heart failure. Participants were closely monitored for a week to see changes in blood volume and other markers. The goal was to better understand how chloride helps control fluid balance, not to test a new treatment.
