Comparative Evaluation of the Evolution of Emerging Biological Markers in Patients Hospitalized for Acute Heart Failure According to Conventional Management or Therapeutic Adjustment Via Daily Ultrasound.

Comparative Evaluation of the Evolution of Emerging Biological Markers (sST2, Copeptin, Chromogranin, NGAL, suPAR and Cystatin) in Patients Hospitalized for Acute Heart Failure (AHF) Depending on Their Management: Conventional or Therapeutic Adjustment According to Daily Ultrasound. Ancillary Study to the JECICA Study (AOI GCS MERRI 2015).

Brief summary

This is a bi-centric, prospective randomized study to evaluate the contribution of rapid echocardioscopy at the patient's bedside to improving the prognosis of patients hospitalized for acute heart failure. The following markers will be evaluated: sST2, Copeptin, chromogranin, NGAL, suPAR and cystatin.

Detailed description

The JECICA study is the first prospective randomized study to evaluate the contribution of rapid echocardioscopy at the patient's bedside to improving the prognosis of patients hospitalized for acute heart failure (paper submitted to the American Heart Journal, Impact Factor 4.15). The serum library set up to consider this ancillary study can now be used. With it, a comparative analysis of the expression profiles of emerging biological markers will be made according to whether patients received standard management or the Jet Echo strategy. The following markers will be evaluated: sST2, Copeptin, chromogranin, NGAL, suPAR and cystatin. This study should help to explain any differences in results observed, consider the development of multiparametric prognostic scores and explore the correlation between biological markers and the evaluation of echocardiographic congestion from a pathophysiological viewpoint. The results obtained should lead us to improve our usual practices for the management of heart failure patients.

Interventions

OTHEREvaluation of the evolution of biological markers from the biobank.

The evolution of sST2, copeptin, chromogranin, NGAL, suPAR and cystatin will be evaluated between Day 0 and Month 1
