Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis and clinical outcomes in patients with acute heart failure.

J Cardiovasc Med (Hagerstown). 2014 Oct;, PMID: 25333379

Fluid overload is a hallmark in acute heart failure (AHF). Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) has emerged as a noninvasive method for quantifying patients' hydration. We aimed to evaluate the effect of BIVA hydration status (BHS) measured before discharge on mortality and rehospitalization for AHF.
