SUbCONgestion in Heart Failure Registry
Description and Analysis of Congestion During Hospitalization for Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 11 May 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
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.
