Abstract: | Diuretic resistance in acute heart failure is a common clinical problem, and it is associated with adverse outcomes. Effective therapies are still lacking. The Doraya catheter, a temporary intravenous flow regulator placed in the inferior vena cava below the level of the renal veins, is a novel device designed to target renal and cardiac congestion, thereby improving diuretic response. A first-in-man clinical study is currently ongoing. |
