Brief Summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the decongestion process in heart failure patients. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the behavior of congestion during hospitalization in adult patients with acute heart failure (AHF)? Participants will be evaluated in the decongestion process through clinical, analytical, and ultrasonographic variables, and they will be followed up for one year to assess mortality and rehospitalization rates in this population.

Conditions

Heart Failure; Congestion

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  Readmission to hospital for cardiac cause

  One year from discharge

• All cause mortality

  Death from any cause

  One year after discharge

Secondary Outcomes (1)

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years+
• Sex: all
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients with heart failure aged 18 years or above that are admitted in emergency room or outpatient clinic for acute decompensation of new or known heart failure, excluding diagnostics that mimics heart failure. Everyone has to be discharge from Hospital Clínico Universidad de Chile.

You may qualify if:

• Adults diagnosed with decompensated heart failure in the emergency department or cardiology outpatient clinic at the Clinical Hospital of the University of Chile (HCUCh).
• Profile of warm-wet and cold-wet type heart failure.
• Spontaneous ventilation with or without non-invasive mechanical support.
• Desire for participation validated through informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

• Dry-type heart failure profile (warm and cold)
• Diagnostics that mimics heart failure (valvular heart disease, cardiomyopathies, and others diagnostic different from heart failure).
• Septic, distributive, or obstructive shock
• Polytraumatized
• Severe burns
• Invasive mechanical ventilation
• Permanent renal replacement therapy
• Severe dependence
• Presence of terminal illness with a prognosis of survival less than one year
• Presence of traumatic conditions that prevent the use of thoracic ultrasound, such as a flail chest or moderate to severe burn on the left hemithorax.
• Lack of a support network or contact.
• Cardiorespiratory arrest
• Refusal to participate as indicated in the informed consent.
• Presence of psychological or intellectual disability that prevents expressing the will to participate.
