Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • renal hemodynamics renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate

    measured on days 1, 2, 3

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • measure plasma neurohormone levels

    predose, 1 hour and 4 hours post dose measured on day 1, 2, 3

Study Arms (3)

Conivaptan

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Conivaptan will be given via IV bolus

Drug: Conivaptan

Furosemide

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Furosemide will be given via IV bolus

Drug: Furosemide

conivaptan and furosemide

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

on day 3 subjects will receive both study drugs

Drug: Conivaptan and furosemide

Interventions

Conivaptan 20 mg IV bolus followed by a 4 hour infusion at 1.2 mg/hr

Also known as: vaprisol
Conivaptan

Furosemide will be given IV at the subjects usual oral dose up to 80 mg. If the dose is 80 mg or more only 1/2 the dose will be given IV.

Also known as: Lasix
Furosemide

Furosemide bolus first; conivaptan 20 mg IV bolus/infusion at 1.2 mg/hour for a total of 4 hours

Also known as: vaprisol, lasix

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo

  • Be between 18-80 years of age
  • Able to provide consent
  • Have a documented left ventricular ejection fraction within the last year of \< 40%
  • On a stable dose (no changes within 2 weeks) of 40 mg or greater daily dose of furosemide or its equivalent

You may not qualify if:

  • Acute coronary syndrome within 1 month
  • Systolic blood pressure less than or equal to 90 mmHg at time of enrollment
