Multi-Center Study Presented by Duke at Heart Failure Therapeutics Conference Highlights Daxor’s Unique Clinical Utility for Heart Failure Patients
08 Marzo 2024 - 2:00PM
Daxor Corporation (Nasdaq: DXR), the global leader in blood volume
measurement technology, today announces new data from Duke
University Medical Center validating the benefits of blood volume
analysis (BVA) in optimizing individualized therapy for heart
failure patients with impaired renal function. Data were presented
on 259 patients from three centers at the Technology and Heart
Failure Therapeutics Conference (THT), which brought together the
world’s leading experts in heart failure innovations at the Westin
Boston Seaport in Boston, Massachusetts March 4-6, 2024.
The lead investigator from Duke, Veraprapas
Kittipibul M.D., commented during his award-winning presentation
that surrogate markers such as “right atrial pressure and capillary
wedge pressure had minimal utility to measure blood volume.” The
study definitively showed the limitations of these commonly used
measures of pressure to guide volume decisions, compared with
Daxor’s 98% accurate BVA system.
The study, titled, ‘Blood Volume Profiles and
Correlations with Pressures in Heart Failure with Impaired Renal
Function,’ aimed to answer if the degree of renal impairment in
heart failure patients impacts volume status, the pressure-volume
relationship, and the prevalence and types of anemia.
Veraprapas Kittipibul M.D., lead investigator of
the study concluded that:
- Heterogeneity in volume exists
across renal function which can only be accurately measured with
BVA.
- Patients with large volume
expansion had worsening renal function, showing the urgent need for
care.
- Pressure-volume correlation is
consistently weak across renal function, showing that BVA is the
right tool.
- Anemia, especially dilutional
anemia, is more prevalent in worse renal function, also detectable
by BVA.
“The cornerstone of heart failure care is volume
management, and an accurate diagnosis of this is crucial,
especially in patients at significant risk for kidney disease,”
said Michael Feldschuh, CEO and President of Daxor. “Our BVA
technology provides clinicians with 98% accurate, actionable data
to optimize treatment plans and individualize care, improving
outcomes while reducing duration and cost of care.”

Daxor Corporation (Nasdaq: DXR), is the global
leader in blood volume measurement technology focused on blood
volume testing innovation. We developed and market the BVA-100®
(Blood Volume Analyzer), the only diagnostic blood test cleared by
the FDA to provide safe, accurate, objective quantification of
blood volume status and composition compared to patient-specific
norms. Over 65,000+ tests have been performed at leading hospital
centers across the U.S., enhancing hospital performance metrics in
a broad range of surgical and medical conditions, including
significantly reducing mortality and readmissions in heart failure
and critical care. Daxor has several ongoing trials in the areas of
heart failure treatment with support from the NIH and is under
contract developing analyzers to improve combat casualty care with
the U.S. Department of Defense. Daxor's mission is to advance
healthcare by enabling optimal fluid management with blood volume
analysis. Daxor’s vision is optimal blood volume for all. For more
