Prognostic impact of blood urea nitrogen changes during hospitalization in patients with acute heart failure syndrome.
BACKGROUND Elevated blood urea nitrogen (BUN) observed in patients hospitalized for acute heart failure syndrome (AHFS) may represent increased neurohumoral activation. The purpose of this study was to examine the prognostic impact of BUN changes during hospitalization on the long-term prognosis of AHFS patients. METHODS AND RESULTS The Tohoku Acute Heart Failure Registry (n=497) is a multice...
متن کاملBlood urea nitrogen to creatinine ratio is associated with congestion and mortality in heart failure patients with renal dysfunction.
Renal dysfunction (RD) and venous congestion are related and common in heart failure (HF). Studies suggest that venous congestion may be the primary driver of RD in HF. In this study, we sought to investigate retrospectively the relationship between common measures of renal function with caval congestion and mortality among outpatients with HF and RD. We reviewed data from 103 HF outpatients (4...
متن کاملPersistent high blood urea nitrogen level is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events in patients with acute heart failure
AIMS The association between kinetics of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels in hospital and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with acutely decompensated congestive heart failure (HF) is unclear. We aimed to estimate the impact of changes in BUN level during hospitalization on clinical prognosis in patients with acute HF. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 353 consecutive patients that were urgent...
متن کاملRelation of blood urea nitrogen to long-term mortality in patients with heart failure.
Patients with chronic kidney disease and heart failure (HF) have been shown to be at higher risk for major adverse cardiovascular events and death. Recent studies have demonstrated that blood urea nitrogen (BUN) might serve as a powerful predictor of mortality in acutely decompensated HF. The goal of this study was to determine the impact of BUN on long-term mortality in patients with stage B a...
متن کاملHypercapnia in patients with acute heart failure†
AIMS Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation rapidly improves the symptoms of acute heart failure (AHF). A portion of patients, however, are forced to be intubated even though intubation is associated with serious complications, and hypercapnia is often observed in AHF requiring intubation. The purpose of this study is to examine the clinical profile and management of hypercapnia in AHF pati...
