Nuwellis, Inc. announced that new clinical evidence demonstrating the efficacy of its Aquadex® system will be presented at the Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) Annual Scientific Meeting, taking place September 27-30, 2024, in Atlanta, Georgia. The study, conducted by Dr. Wayne Old, MD, an advanced heart failure cardiologist at Sentara Health, based out of Sentara Norfolk General Hospital in Norfolk, Va., highlights the benefits of Aquadex ultrafiltration therapy for heart failure patients experiencing fluid overload who have not responded to traditional diuretic treatments. The research underscores Aquadex's ability to effectively manage fluid levels, providing a critical therapeutic alternative for this challenging patient population.

Sentara Health is also actively participating in REVERSE-HF, a pivotal clinical study on ultrafiltration using Aquadex. REVERSE-HF (Ultrafiltration Versus IV Diuretics in Worsening Heart Failure) is evaluating the clinical outcomes and economic value of Aquadex ultraf filtiltration therapy in comparison to intravenous (IV) diuretics for the treatment of fluid overload in patients with worsening heart failure.
