Worsening Renal Function in Patients Hospitalized with Acute Heart Failure: Risk Factors and Prognostic Significances
Objectives. To determine the prevalence, the clinical predictors, and the prognostic significances of Worsening Renal Function (WRF) in hospitalized patients with Acute Heart Failure (AHF). Methods. 394 consecutively hospitalized patients with AHF were evaluated. WRF was defined as an increase in serum creatinine of ≥0.3 mg/dL from baseline to discharge. Results. Nearly 11% of patients develope...
متن کاملWorsening Renal Function an Ominous Prognostic Sign in Patients With Acute Heart Failure? The Role of Congestion and Its Interaction With Renal Function”
Letter by Palazzuoli et al Regarding Article, “Is Worsening Renal Function an Ominous Prognostic Sign in Patients With Acute Heart Failure? The Role of Congestion and Its Interaction With Renal Function” To the Editor: We congratulate Dr Metra and colleagues in helping us further understand the problem of worsening renal function, better termed acute kidney injury (AKI), in heart failure (HF) p...
متن کاملIs worsening renal function an ominous prognostic sign in patients with acute heart failure? The role of congestion and its interaction with renal function.
BACKGROUND Worsening renal function (WRF), traditionally defined as an increase in serum creatinine levels ≥0.3 mg/dL, is a frequent finding in patients with acute heart failure (AHF) and has been associated with poorer outcomes in some but not all studies. We hypothesized that these discrepancies may be caused by the interaction between WRF and congestion in AHF patients. METHODS AND RESULTS...
متن کاملWorsening renal function in patients admitted with acute decompensated heart failure: incidence, risk factors and prognostic implications.
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is a common cause of hospital admission and is associated with an increased risk of worsening renal function (WRF). The aims of this study were to investigate the incidence and predictors of WRF in patients admitted for ADHF and to assess the prognostic significance of WRF at 1 year. METHODS A retrospective analysis of data ...
متن کاملA retrospective characterization of worsening renal function in patients with acute decompensated heart failure receiving nesiritide
UNLABELLED Nesiritide is approved by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) due its ability to rapidly reduce cardiac filling pressures and improve dyspnea. Numerous studies have shown that renal dysfunction is associated with unfavorable outcomes in patients with heart failure. In addition, there have been reports suggesti...
