This is an interventional treatment trial for Heart Failure
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- ≥ 18 years
- Patients hospitalized with primary diagnosis of acute heart failure defined as ≥ 2 of the following criteria:
- Peripheral or sacral edema
- Jugular venous distension or venous central pressure > 10 mmHg
- Hepatomegaly or ascites
- Pulmonary edema or pleural effusion on x-ray or pulmonary wedge pressure or end-diastolic pressure > 20 mmHg.

- The patient should be able to communicate with research staff and meet with study procedures.
- The patient will signed informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Diagnosis of severe aortic stenosis or severe obstruction to the LVOT, tamponade, cardiac hypertrophic or restrictive cardiomyopathy.
- Impossibility of venous catheterization
- Acute coronary syndrome
- Creatinine greater than 3.0 or K greater than 6 mmol/L.
- Systolic blood pressure less than or equal to 100 mmHg

Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Efficacy
Compare patient global improvement 48 hours after initiation of scuf therapy in a group of patients with the same features treated by peripheral access against a group of patients with the same features treated by central access. This outcome will be measured by patient global assessment
Secondary Outcome Measures
Security
Compare complications in acute heart failure patients treated with scuf, in a group treated by peripheral line vs central line. This outcome will be assessed by a safety score at the AE at the 5th day of the study. ( 0 : no AE and 79 understood as the worse punctuation for the AE). Every AE has a punctuation related to the seriousness.
