NCT ID NCT06272734

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This pilot study tests the Reprieve System, a bedside device that automatically adjusts the delivery of a diuretic (furosemide) and saline based on the patient's real-time urine output. The goal is to safely and quickly remove excess fluid from 50 hospitalized adults with acute decompensated heart failure. The study focuses on whether the device works as intended without causing harm.
