Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Patients who provide consent to take part in the study will be asked to wear an adhesive leg band strip with 5 bio-impedance sensors attached horizontally around the back of their calf. This leg band will remain attached for up to 8 hours at a time and data will be collected over a 3 day period. The leg band will be connected to a data recording unit which can be disconnected when required.

Summary
Brief summary
A prototype bio-impedance recording device called Cardia [TIP2] has been developed by Melbourne based medical device company Grey Innovation. An earlier prototype of this device [TIP1] has already undergone a clinical study (CTN-03513-1) in dialysis patients where 16 patients wore the device over 19 sessions lasting 4-6 hours each. It was found that changes in bio-impedance were reliably measured with the Cardia [TIP2] prototype - correlating with fluid removed from the participant during dialysis. This study will enable the prototype to be tested in heart failure patients, the end user population over a longer period of time. This study will provide information that will enable us to move towards an optimised device that is to be tested in a large-scale home-based trial. The home-based trial will compare those who do have the real-time volume status information to act upon against those who do not and will assess whether relevant clinical outcomes can be improved, i.e. prevention of heart failure re-hospitalisation or minimisation of time in hospital for acute decompensation. Thus, this specific project is critical in advancing the commercial and therapeutic/diagnostic potential of the device, before such a study can be considered. Our goal is that this will ultimately lead to the development of a commercially viable, low-cost (potentially disposable), non-invasive approach to assessment of fluid status to allow early intervention and increase health outcomes in heart failure patients.
