Could a simple urine test help heart patients leave the hospital sooner?
NCT ID NCT07263035
Summary
This study is testing if checking the salt level in a patient's urine can help doctors better adjust their 'water pill' (diuretic) dose. Researchers want to see if aiming for a higher urine salt target helps patients get rid of more fluid, recover faster, and avoid being readmitted to the hospital soon after going home. About 600 adults hospitalized for sudden worsening of heart failure will have their urine tested regularly, and their medication may be increased if their urine salt is too low.
