Summary
Brief summary
SODIUM-HF is a multicenter clinical trial in ambulatory patients with chronic HF to evaluate
the efficacy of a low sodium containing diet on a composite clinical outcome composed of of
all-cause mortality, cardiovascular hospitalizations and cardiovascular emergency department
visits. The hypothesis of this study is that patients following a low-sodium containing diet
will have fewer clinical events (fewer hospital readmissions or emergency department visits,
longer survival) than those randomized to Usual Care.
