  • An increasing number of people are being diagnosed with heart failure in Canada.
     

  • 600 000 people in Canada have been diagnosed with heart failure to date.
     

  • Patients with heart failure are recommended to reduce the amount of salt in their diet, but the total amount of salt that patients with heart failure should consume per day is not clear.

The SODIUM-HF Trial was proposed to address this challenge. Funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) and the University Hospital Foundation (UHF), the SODIUM-HF Trial is the Study of Dietary Intervention under 100 MMOL in Heart Failure
