Official title
Tolvaptan Treatment to Reverse Worsening Outpatient Heart Failure: Possible Role of Copeptin In Identifying Responders (TROUPER)
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Patients who present to clinic or in the outpatient setting with worsening heart failure represent a unique opportunity for novel approaches to decongestion (removing fluid) that may more rapidly improve fluid status and symptoms as well as reduce the risk of hospitalization. In these patients with less severe congestion (fluid overload), combining the vasopressin antagonist tolvaptan with loop diuretics (or fluid pills like furosemide/bumetanide/torsemide) may represent a more effective strategy for decongestion. In addition, looking at patients' copeptin levels may help identify those who are more likely to respond to tolvaptan.
