Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The investigators hypothesize that patients admitted to an emergency department (ED) observation unit will have a decreased rate of hospital admissions and ED recidivism when treated with nesiritide versus standard therapy. The investigators also hypothesize that decreasing B-type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) levels during treatment in an ED observation unit will predict improved patient outcomes.
