Acute Heart Failure Monitoring Via Inferior Vena Cava Ultrasound

The Role of Inferior Vena Cava in Emergency Treatment of Acute Decompensated Heart Failure and Deciding Hospitalization

Known before diagnosed heart failure and used diuretic therapy patients will be admitted in this study.The objective of this work is whether the Inferior Vena Cava Ultrasound can be used for management of Acute Heart failure therapy. And investigators will calculation correlation of extracted urine amount with Inferior Vena Cava diameter change. Researchers will not interfere to standard recommended treatment protocol, researchers will correlated the urine amount and changed vital signs with therapy with Vena cava inferior diameter.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Adult patients (> 18 years of age) of both sexes)
• Non-trauma patients

• All patients will be accepted for this study, that known Heart Failure and must be taken diuretic therapy because of volume overload

Exclusion Criteria:
