Acetazolamide, residual congestion and clinical outcomes in acute heart failure - a prespecified analysis of the ADVOR trial.
Acta cardiologica, 2026 · Prespecified secondary analysis of a randomized trial
What the trial found
Acetazolamide reduced residual congestion; residual congestion was associated with subsequent events.
Clinical interpretation
Parent trial reuse and prognostic association do not demonstrate a new independent survival effect.
Hemodynamic phenotypes (SCAPE vs ADHF vs Cardiogenic Shock), non-invasive positive pressure ventilation, high-dose vasodilator algorithms, loop diuretics, and sequential nephron blockade.
Hydrostatic pulmonary edema physiology, SCAPE vs decompensated HF vs cardiogenic shock, NIV, titrated vasodilators when hypertensive, diuresis, and sequential nephron blockade.
