| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Using multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), we measured extracellular water (ECW) volume in 505 chronic heart failure (CHF) patients just before discharge. At the same time, We measured type B natriuretic peptide (BNP), physical examination and parameters derived from echocardiography. A weakly positive correlation was observed between measured/predicted (M/P) ratio of ECW and BNP or estimated systolic pulmonary artery pressure in CHF patients. Also, M/P ratio was an independent factor to predict adverse cardiac event (cardiac death and rehospitalization due to worsenig heart failure). Our study suggested that M/P ratio might be useful to treat CHF patients.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
慢性心不全患者における生体インピーダンス法による体液量評価は従来の指標では評価できない、Hemodynamic congestionを評価できる可能性がある。また、M/P ratioをメルクマールにうっ血解除を図ることによって利尿剤の適正化を目指すことも可能であることが示唆され、今後の心不全診療の一助になる可能性が示唆される。
