Should we put patients w/chronic heart failure on low sodium diets. This international trial indicates it doesn’t decrease risk of CV events or all-cause death. Little reason to promote the approach.
Nice study @JustinEzekowitz and colleagues. #ACC22 thelancet.com/journals/lance…

@JustinEzekowitz The #SODIUMHF study had an interesting finding…secondary endpoints of health status modestly improved w/low salt diet. People can try it if they want & see if they feel better. If not, they can stop w/o fear they're increasing their risk. We docs should not push it on them.
@JustinEzekowitz Another interesting feature of the study is that while people reported modest improvement in health status w/low salt diet, they did not walk farther in 6 minute walk test. So a split in what you might expect.
