The primary goal of this study is to improve our understanding of changes in skeletal muscle mass in the arms and the legs during a hospitalization for advanced HF. We plan to measure muscle thickness with an ultrasound machine in two locations on the body (the outer thigh and the upper arm muscle, of the dominant side) from the time a patient is first admitted to the ICU with HF as well as before and after any surgical HF therapies.
