Furoscix Real-World Evaluation for Decreasing Hospital Admissions in Heart Failure

Summary

The study is to evaluate the safe admission avoidance and the overall economic impact associated with management of worsening HF using the drug-device combination product, the Furoscix Infusor, outside the hospital setting in patients initially presenting to the emergency department. The study drug, Furoscix (furosemide injection 8 mg/ml), is a furosemide solution buffered to a neutral pH containing 80 mg/10 mL for subcutaneous administration over 5 hours via the Furoscix Infusor. The study objectives are: 1. To evaluate differences in healthcare resource utilization and direct medical costs for patients treated with the Furoscix Infusor outside the hospital versus patients receiving intravenous furosemide for ≤ 72 hours in the hospital setting for 30 days post-discharge from the emergency department. 2. To evaluate the safety of Furoscix administered outside the hospital. 3. To evaluate and describe quality of life and patient satisfaction for patients who receive the Furoscix Infusor outside the hospital setting.
