Prior studies comparing ultrafiltration with medical management for acute decompensated heart failure have yielded conflicting results. The AVOID-HF trial was designed as a definitive comparison of optimal ultrafiltration versus optimal diuretic-based medical therapy; unfortunately, the trial was terminated prematurely because of slow recruitment. The results of AVOID-HF nevertheless provide a rationale for well-designed, adequately powered trials to determine whether ultrafiltration has a role in the routine management of acute decompensated heart failure.
先前比较超滤与药物治疗急性失代偿性心力衰竭的研究结果相互矛盾。AVOID-HF试验旨在对最佳超滤与基于利尿剂的最佳药物治疗进行明确比较；不幸的是，由于入组缓慢，该试验提前终止。尽管如此，AVOID-HF试验的结果为设计良好、样本量充足的试验提供了理论依据，以确定超滤在急性失代偿性心力衰竭的常规管理中是否发挥作用。
