Oral Iron Therapy for Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction
Impaired exercise capacity is a cardinal manifestation of heart failure (HF) that is closely related to reduced quality of life and poor outcomes. Therapeutic options beyond neurohormonal blockade to improve functional capacity and symptoms in HF are currently limited and must be pursued. Iron deficiency is associated with reduced functional capacity and poorer quality of life in HF. Here, a ra...
متن کاملUltrafiltration versus intravenous diuretics for patients hospitalized for acute decompensated heart failure.
OBJECTIVES This study was designed to compare the safety and efficacy of veno-venous ultrafiltration and standard intravenous diuretic therapy for hypervolemic heart failure (HF) patients. BACKGROUND Early ultrafiltration may be an alternative to intravenous diuretics in patients with decompensated HF and volume overload. METHODS Patients hospitalized for HF with > or =2 signs of hypervolem...
متن کاملAdvances in Heart Failure Loop Diuretics in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure Necessary? Evil? A Necessary Evil?
Acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) is the most common cause of hospital admission in patients 65 years, accounting for 1 million hospitalizations, 6 million hospital days, and $12 billion in costs annually in the United States alone.1,2 The prognosis of patients admitted with ADHF is dismal, with rates of rehospitalization or death approaching 50% within 6 months.3,4 Despite these alarmin...
متن کاملChronic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction is a clinical syndrome of dysp nea, exercise intolerance and/or edema resulting from an impairment of ejec tion of blood, usually documented by a left ventricular ejection fraction of 40% or less on echocardiography.1,2 Cor on ary artery disease is a major cause; therefore, stress testing or, in the pres ence of angina, coronary angiography shoul...
متن کاملIntravenous fluids in acute decompensated heart failure.
OBJECTIVES This study sought to determine the use of intravenous fluids in the early care of patients with acute decompensated heart failure (HF) who are treated with loop diuretics. BACKGROUND Intravenous fluids are routinely provided to many hospitalized patients. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients admitted with HF to 346 hospitals from 2009 to 2010. We assessed...
