Brief summary

The aim of the study was to verify the effects of moderate versus low sodium intake on pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), determined by Doppler echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging in patients suffering from compensated heart failure.

Detailed description

the study outcome is hospital readmission and mortality after 12 months of two different sodium diet.
