Study Shows Direct Volume Measurement’s Accuracy Compared to Pressure Measures
The study titled, “Pressure-Volume Profiles in Heart Failure Across Sexes and Phenotypes,” assessed the relationship between cardiac filling pressures (a commonly used surrogate to assess blood volume) and total blood volume (TBV) measurement using Daxor’s BVA-100 blood test between sexes and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), key clinical determinants of response to therapy and outcomes in heart failure.
The study results showed there was no significant difference between PADP and TBV between sexes and consistent lack of correlation between PADP and TBV. Veraprapas Kittipibul, M.D., lead investigator of the study, concluded, “The two key metrics of cardiovascular congestion, namely, intracardiac pressure and intravascular volume, were disassociated across both sexes and LVEF. Knowledge of unique pressure-volume profiles perhaps demands for distinct approaches to decongestion strategies.”
“More than 135 published peer-reviewed studies, and over a dozen this past year alone, have proven that blood volume analysis informs clinicians with critical information to manage and treat volume derangements in heart failure and many other medical conditions,” said
