Management of Mechanical Ventilation in Decompensated Heart Failure
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving intervention for respiratory failure, including decompensated congestive heart failure. MV can reduce ventricular preload and afterload, decrease extra-vascular lung water, and decrease the work of breathing in heart failure. The advantages of positive pressure ventilation must be balanced with potential harm from MV: volutrauma, hyperoxia-induced in...

Despite the high prevalence of this condition and its associated major morbidity and mortality, diagnosis can be difficult, and optimal treatment remains poorly defined. Identification of the acute triggers for the decompensation as well as noninvasive characteri...

متن کاملAcute Decompensated Heart Failure : Medical Management
While pharmaceutical innovation has been highly successful in reducing mortality in chronic heart failure, this has not been matched by similar success in acute decompensated heart failure ( ADHF ). ADHF is the most common reason for hospital admission in patients over the age of 65, and is associated with staggering costs. Furthermore, the prognosis of patients admitted with ADHF remains disma...
متن کاملLung Ultrasound in the Management of Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
Once thought impracticable, lung ultrasound is now used in patients with a variety of pulmonary processes. This review seeks to describe the utility of lung ultrasound in the management of patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). A literature search was carried out on PubMed/Medline using search terms related to the topic. Over three thousand results were narrowed down via title ...
