Targeting pulmonary congestion in acute heart failure (AHF) remains a key goal of care. Lung ultrasound (LUS) B-lines are a semi-quantitative assessment of pulmonary congestion. Whether B-lines decrease in patients with AHF by targeting therapy is not well known. To determine whether a 6-hour LUS guided strategy-of-care improves pulmonary congestion over usual management in the emergency department (ED) setting. Secondarily, we explored whether early targeted intervention leads to improved outcomes. A multi-center, single-blind, ED-based, pilot trial, randomizing 130 patients to: 1) a 6-hour LUS-guided treatment strategy vs 2) structured usual care. Patients were followed throughout hospitalization and 90-days post-discharge. B-lines ≤ 15 at 6 hours was the primary outcome. Days alive and out of hospital (DAOOH) at 30-days was the main exploratory outcome. No significant difference in the proportion of patients with B-lines ≤ 15 at 6 hours (25% LUS vs 27.5% usual care; p = 0.83) or the number of B-lines at 6 hours (35.4 ± 26.8 LUS vs 34.3 ± 26.2 usual care, p = 0.82) was observed between groups. There were also no differences in DAOOH (21.3 ± 6.6 LUS arm vs 21.3 ±7.1 usual care, (p = 0.99)). However, a significantly greater reduction in the number B-lines was observed in LUS guided patients compared to usual structured care during the first 48 hours (p = 0.04). In this pilot trial, ED use of LUS to target pulmonary congestion conferred no benefit compared to usual care in reducing the number of B-lines at 6 hours or in 30-days DAOOH. However, LUS-guided patients had faster resolution of congestion during the initial 48 hours.
