failure (AHF) is a frequent condition in emergency basis and is responsible of a big number of admissions, complications, and deaths.\n\ndespite advances in diagnostic techniques, AHF diagnosis still difficult and cost not effective.\n\nMeasurement of cardiac output (CO) is used as a way to evaluate global cardiac function and changes in CO may be used to identify a change in the hemodynamic status of a patient.\n\nthe gold standard of measuring CO is thermodilution catheterization, however this is an invasive technique that poses a risk to the patient.\n\nImpedance cardiography (ICG) is a noninvasive method for measuring CO. it is performed by applying small electrical current to the chest, and through electrodes placed on the neck and sides.\n\nthe pulsatile flow of blood causes fluctuations in the current, and the device calculates CO from the impedance waveform.\n\nIn practice, the investigators connect the device "BIOPAC" by using four electrodes which the investigators place on the base of the neck (posterior face) and on the base of the thorax (posterior face).\n\nThe ECG recording is taken simultaneously with two other electrodes placed at the right upper limb and left lower limb.\n\nIn addition to detecting the electric current and the ECG, heart sounds are recorded using a sensor that is placed at the mitral site.\n\nThe various curves are displayed simultaneously and stored for analysis. Subjects were first placed in the semi sitting position 30°, and after 5 minutes had cardiac output measurements performed. (CO1)\n\nA second cardiac output measurement was performed after 5 min of seated position. (C02)\n\nPatients were then placed in the initial position, and after an additional 5 minutes had cardiac output measurements performed. (CO1\')\n\nA third set of measurement was obtained during 45° passive leg raising at 1 to 2 minutes.(CO3)\n\nPatients were then placed in the initial position, and after an additional 5 minutes had cardiac output measurements performed. (CO1\'\')\n\nDuring a Valsalva maneuver the investigators took the fourth cardiac output measurement. (CO4)\n\nPatients were then placed in the initial position, and after an additional 5 minutes had cardiac output measurements performed. (CO1\'\'\')\n\nDynamic variations on bio-impedance measured CO using non pharmacologic intervention (sitting position, passive leg rising and Valsalva maneuver) could be used to detect AHF in patients admitted to the ED for dyspnea.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* 18 year old or above\n* non traumatic acute dyspnea\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* age \\<18 years,\n* cardio respiratory arrest,\n* coma,\n* shock,\n* need for inotropic or vasoactive drugs,\n* mechanical ventilation,\n* severe and sustained rhythm disorders,\n* severe mitral valve disease,\n* severe pulmonary arterial hypertension\n* renal insufficiency with creatinine\\>150 μmol/l.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT03241069', 'acronym': 'DYVIC', 'briefTitle': 'Dynamic Variation of Impedance Cardiography(DYVIC) as a Diagnostic Tool of Acute Heart Failure (AHF)', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of Monastir'}, 'officialTitle': 'Dynamic Variation of Impedance Cardiography (ICG) a Diagnostic Tool of Acute Heart Failure (AHF) in Emergency Department (ED) Patients Admitted for Acute Dyspnea', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'DYVIC'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'patients with acute dyspnea', 'description': 'patients presenting to the emergency department with acute onset dyspnea are assessed for acute heart failure using the bio impedance technology (BIOPAC system) to measure the cardiac output in different clinical situations.\n\nFIRST: the cardiac output (CO) is measured at the reference position.
