Objective The recognition of fluid retention is critical in treating heart failure (HF). Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a well‐known noninvasive method; however, data on its role in managing patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) are limited. Here, we aimed to clarify the correlation between BIA and HF severity as well as the prognostic value of BIA in adult patients with CHD. Design This prospective single‐center study included 170 patients with CHD admitted between 2013 and 2015. We evaluated BIA parameters (intra …
