NCT01700023

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is two-fold:

  1. 1.to test 3-dimensional reconstruction of leg-edema in patients hospitalized for acute heart failure with leg-edema.
  2. 2.to measure changes in QRS-morphology in a simulation of conventional blood-pressure measurement in patients hospitalized for acute heart failure.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • accuracy of 3-dimensional measurements

    the 3-D camera will record changes in leg-shape around the ankles that result from reabsorption of fluid. These changes will be compared with changes in leg-circumference using a measuring tape

    10 days

Study Arms (1)

patients with leg-edema

patients with decompensated heart failure presenting with leg-edema

Eligibility Criteria
