Registered outcomes10

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryMortality, Days in Hospital & Decongestion30 days
The net treatment benefit is calculated for the hierarchical composite primary endpoint. Every patient from the intervention group is pair-wise compared with each patient from the control group to declare a winner or tie. The following criteria are sequentially assessed to declare a winner or a tie: 1. Any subject surviving until 30 days after randomization wins from a subject who died. If both subjects did not survive until day 30, there is a tie. 2. In a pair of subjects, both surviving up till day 30, the subject with the highest number of days alive and out of hospital or care facility during the 30-day follow-up window is declared the winner. 3. In a pair of subjects, both surviving up till day 30 with the same number of days alive and out of hospital/care facility, the subject with the greatest relative reduction in NTproBNP from baseline is the winner (rounded to the closest percentage with a minimal difference of 5%). If the difference is \<5%, there is a tie.
SecondaryRenal Safety Endpoint30 days
Number of patients with doubling of the serum creatinine or plasma cystatin C value compared to baseline with an absolute value \>2 mg/dL or \>2 mg/L, respectively, or the need for ultrafiltration and/or renal replacement therapy during the index hospital admission.
SecondaryHemodynamic Safety Endpoint30 daysNumber of patients with a ystolic blood pressure \<90 mmHg or mean arterial pressure \<65 mmHg or need for vasopressors and/or inotropes during the index hospital admission.
SecondaryNatriuretic Peptide Change After 30 Days30 daysRelative NT-proBNP change from baseline to 30 days after randomisation \[%\].
SecondaryCancer Antigen 125 (CA125) Change After 30 Days30 daysRelative cancer antigen 125 (CA125) change from baseline to 30 days after randomisation \[%\].
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Successful Clinical Decongestion30 days
Number of participants with no more than trace edema, absence of jugular venous distension and no rales upon the moment of transition from intravenous diuretics to oral diuretic therapy according to the protocol.
SecondaryLength of Intravenous Diuretic Therapy30 daysNumber of consecutive days from randomization during the index admission on which intravenous diuretic therapy was administered.
SecondaryOverall Well-being After Decongestion30 days
Five-point Likert scale for overall well-being upon the moment of transition from intravenous diuretics to oral diuretic therapy according to the protocol and compared with the moment of randomisation (5: much improved/4: slightly improved/3: neutral/2: slightly worse/1: much worse).
SecondaryLength of the Index Hospital Admission30 daysLength of the index hospital admission \[days\].
SecondaryNumber of Participants Who Are Death, or Have a Non-elective Hospital Admission or Non-elective Medical Contact30 daysNumber of participants who are death, or have a non-elective hospital admission or non-elective medical contact

This endpoint could not be assessed in patients who died (n=3 in the intervention arm and n=4 in the control arm). In addition, 1 patient in the intervention arm withdrew consent during follow-up. Vital status could be assessed, but no blood sample was available for this patient. Finally, 5 blood samples were missing in the control group because patients were unable to physically attend the final follow-up visit.

This endpoint was not be assessed in patients who died (n=3 in the intervention arm and n=4 in the control arm). One edema score was missing in the control group and could not be retrieved, precluding the assessment of decongestion success.

One patient in the intervention arm withdrew consent during follow-up. Vital status could be assessed, but not data on hospitalizations or medical contacts. Therefore the overall number of participants analyzed is 1 lower than for the primary endpoint.
