Peritoneal dialysis reduces the number of hospitalization days in heart failure patients refractory to diuretics.
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Previous small studies have reported favorable results of peritoneal dialysis (PD) in the setting of chronic refractory heart failure (CRHF). We evaluated the impact of PD in a larger cohort of patients with CHRF where end-stage renal disease was excluded. ♢ METHODS All patients who received PD therapy for CRHF between January 1995 and December 2010 in two medical cen...
متن کاملPeritoneal Dialysis for Heart Failure.
Heart failure (HF) is a common and important cause of morbidity and mortality in the elderly, imposing a significant burden on healthcare systems. Better management of ischemic heart disease has resulted in increased survival and growth in the number of prevalent heart failure patients, but co-existing renal impairment complicates management and limits traditional therapeutic options. Ultrafilt...
متن کاملContinuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and clinical outcomes in patients with refractory congestive heart failure.
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Peritoneal dialysis has been proposed as a therapeutic alternative for patients with refractory congestive heart failure. The objective of this study was to assess its effect on long-term clinical outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure and renal dysfunction. METHODS A total of 62 patients with advanced heart failure (class III/IV), renal dysfunction (glom...
متن کاملInflammatory Biomarkers in Refractory Congestive Heart Failure Patients Treated with Peritoneal Dialysis
Proinflammatory cytokines play a pathogenic role in congestive heart failure. In this study, the effect of peritoneal dialysis treatment on inflammatory cytokines levels in refractory congestive heart failure patients was investigated. During the treatment, the patients reached a well-tolerated edema-free state and demonstrated significant improvement in NYHA functional class. Brain natriuretic...
متن کاملHyponatremia in refractory congestive heart failure patients treated with icodextrin-based peritoneal dialysis: A case series.
Severe congestive heart failure (CHF) patients are prone to hyponatremia. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is increasingly used for long-term management of refractory CHF patients. The glucose polymer icodextrin was proposed to be a good option for fluid removal in such patients. A small, although statistically significant reduction in serum sodium (∼2mmol/l) consistently observed in multiple trials, i...
