NCT03288701

Brief Summary

In this trial the measurement of whole body water will be compared to the standard method of measuring the body weight as treatment guidance in patients with decompensated heart failure. The Seca mBCA 515 \[medical Body Composition Analyser\] will be used to quantify the whole body water by using bioelectrical impedance analysis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Measurement of total body water (TBW) in kg

    total body water (TBW) in kg will be measured daily

    From baseline until the date of hospital discharge or stop date of forced diuretic treatment, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 weeks.

  • Measurement of body weight (BW) in kg

    body weight (BW) in kg will be measured daily

    From baseline until the date of hospital discharge or stop date of forced diuretic treatment, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 weeks.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Measurement of fatty tissue (FT) in kg

    From baseline until the date of hospital discharge or stop date of forced diuretic treatment, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 weeks.

Study Arms (1)

Body Composition Analysis

EXPERIMENTAL

Daily measurement of the Body Composition using electrical Bioimpedance Analysis in a scale (seca mBCA 515). Including total body water and weight.

Device: Seca medical Body Composition Analyser 515

Interventions

Comparison of reduction of whole body water and body weight in patients with decompensated heart failure under forced diuretic treatment

Body Composition Analysis

Eligibility Criteria

Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • able to give informed consent
