Abstract
In this pilot study, changes in BV with treatment correlate better with hemodynamics than do changes in BNP, likely reflecting the lag in BNP response to treatment and its tendency to reflect long-term rather than instantaneous volume status. These preliminary data suggest that BV may be a more accurate guide in optimizing CHF treatment than BNP.
