AI Summary
Nuwellis, Inc. announced a new study published in Current Problems in Cardiology that shows Aquadex® ultrafiltration therapy effectively reduces 60-day hospital readmission rates for patients with acutely decompensated heart failure (ADHF) who do not respond well to diuretic treatment. The study, conducted in a community hospital setting, involved 30 patients and focused on evaluating whether the Aquadex therapy could lower the high rehospitalization rates often seen in these patients.
Key findings revealed that the therapy led to significant volume loss and weight reduction without harming renal function. Importantly, patients experienced a drop in heart failure readmissions, with rates falling from 26.7% before treatment to 16.7% after therapy initiation. This research supports Aquadex ultrafiltration as a promising treatment option for managing fluid overload in ADHF patients resistant to standard diuretic therapies.
