Abstract

Objective: Research on index of fluid stasis in patients with chronic heart failure NYHA II to IV. Subjects and methods: 105 patients with chronic hear failure NYHA II to IV were measured index of fluid stasis and nutritions by Body composition monitor (BCM). Description, cross section. Results: Patients with chronic heart failure were the average age of males younger than females (68.71 ± 12.86 years versus 75.19 ± 12.45 years, p <0.05); had an average BMI greater than those who were underweight and overweight (47.63% vs. 22.86% and 29.52%, p <0.01); NYHA level III heart failure was higher in patients with grade II and IV heart failure (44.76% vs. 29.52% and 25.71%, p <0.05). Patients with heart failure had a significantly higher prevalence of cardiovascular disease (63.81% vs. 5.71% and 30.48%, p <0.001). Patients with high levels of intracellular fluid / body weight had a lower incidence of intracellular fluid / body weight (17.14% versus 82.86%, p <0.001). Patients with chronic heart failure have excess fluid including total fluid, extracellular fluid, intracellular fluid, and excess fluid volume; The amount of excess fluid increases gradually with the severity of heart failure.
