Diuretic therapy and diuretic resistance in cardiac failure.
s 40 venous capacitance within a few minutes before any with oedema is defined as a clinical state where the braking phenomenon occurs before the therapeutic measurable increase in urinary output can be seen [1,2]. This rapid haemodynamic improvement is goal is reached. thought to be due to the release of vasodilatory prostaglandins [3]. However, in a study in patients with severe oedema, i.v. ...
متن کاملHypochloremia and Diuretic Resistance in Heart Failure
The fundamental role of sodium in maintenance of fluid homeostasis and progression of heart failure (HF) has been a central paradigm in medicine for more than a century. As a result, a core treatment principal in HF management has been the avoidance of dietary sodium. However, accumulating evidence ranging from the basic sciences to epidemiological studies has challenged this paradigm, suggesti...
متن کاملMechanisms and management of diuretic resistance in congestive heart failure.
Diuretic drugs are used almost universally in patients with congestive heart failure, most frequently the potent loop diuretics. Despite their unproven effect on survival, their indisputable efficacy in relieving congestive symptoms makes them first line therapy for most patients. In the treatment of more advanced stages of heart failure diuretics may fail to control salt and water retention de...
متن کاملCombined aquaretic and diuretic therapy in acute heart failure
INTRODUCTION Acute heart failure (AHF) is a leading cause of hospitalization and readmission in the US. The present study evaluated maximum diuresis while minimizing electrolyte imbalances, hemodynamic instability, and kidney dysfunction, to achieve a euvolemic state safely in a shorter period of time. METHODS AND RESULTS A protocol of combined therapy with furosemide, metolazone, and spirono...
متن کاملFluid removal by haemofiltration in diuretic resistant cardiac failure.
A 60 year old woman with diuretic resistant cardiac failure was treated with intermittent haemofiltration before tricuspid valve replacement. This technique can remove large quantities of fluid rapidly, thus controlling oedema and allow appropriate fluid replacement. Haemofiltration is thus a simple and safe method of managing unresponsive oedema in cardiac failure sometimes allowing corrective...
