Ultrafiltration Versus IV Diuretics in Worsening Heart Failure

Purpose

The REVERSE-HF study is a randomized controlled trial to evaluate clinical outcomes of adjustable ultrafiltration with the Aquadex System as compared to adjustable IV loop diuretics in patients with worsening heart failure (HF) and fluid overload.

Condition

  • Heart Failure (for Example, Fluid Overload)
